README:
AgentIQ is a flexible library designed to seamlessly integrate your enterprise agents—regardless of framework—with various data sources and tools. By treating agents, tools, and agentic workflows as simple function calls, AgentIQ enables true composability: build once and reuse anywhere.
- Framework Agnostic: Works with any agentic framework, so you can use your current technology stack without replatforming.
- Reusability: Every agent, tool, or workflow can be combined and repurposed, allowing developers to leverage existing work in new scenarios.
- Rapid Development: Start with a pre-built agent, tool, or workflow, and customize it to your needs.
- Profiling: Profile entire workflows down to the tool and agent level, track input/output tokens and timings, and identify bottlenecks.
- Observability: Monitor and debug your workflows with any OpenTelemetry-compatible observability tool.
- Evaluation System: Validate and maintain accuracy of agentic workflows with built-in evaluation tools.
- User Interface: Use the AgentIQ UI chat interface to interact with your agents, visualize output, and debug workflows.
- MCP Compatibility Compatible with Model Context Protocol (MCP), allowing tools served by MCP Servers to be used as AgentIQ functions.
With AgentIQ, you can move quickly, experiment freely, and ensure reliability across all your agent-driven projects.

Before you begin using AgentIQ, ensure that you meet the following software prerequisites.
- Install Git
- Install Git Large File Storage (LFS)
- Install uv
-
Clone the AgentIQ repository to your local machine.
git clone [email protected]:NVIDIA/AgentIQ.git agentiq cd agentiq
-
Initialize, fetch, and update submodules in the Git repository.
git submodule update --init --recursive
-
Fetch the data sets by downloading the LFS files.
git lfs install git lfs fetch git lfs pull
-
Create a Python environment.
uv venv --seed .venv source .venv/bin/activate
-
Install the AgentIQ library. To install the AgentIQ library along with all of the optional dependencies. Including developer tools (
--all-groups
) and all of the dependencies needed for profiling and plugins (--all-extras
) in the source repository, run the following:uv sync --all-groups --all-extras
Alternatively to install just the core AgentIQ without any plugins, run the following:
uv sync
At this point individual plugins, which are located under the
packages
directory, can be installed with the following commanduv pip install -e '.[<plugin_name>]'
. For example, to install thelangchain
plugin, run the following:uv pip install -e '.[langchain]'
[!NOTE] Many of the example workflows require plugins, and following the documented steps in one of these examples will in turn install the necessary plugins. For example following the steps in the
examples/simple/README.md
guide will install theagentiq-langchain
plugin if you haven't already done so.In addition to plugins, there are optional dependencies needed for profiling. To install these dependencies, run the following:
uv pip install -e '.[profiling]'
-
Verify the installation using the AgentIQ CLI
aiq --version
This should output the AgentIQ version which is currently installed.
-
Ensure you have set the
NVIDIA_API_KEY
environment variable to allow the example to use NVIDIA NIMs. An API key can be obtained by visitingbuild.nvidia.com
and creating an account.export NVIDIA_API_KEY=<your_api_key>
-
Create the AgentIQ workflow configuration file. This file will define the agents, tools, and workflows that will be used in the example. Save the following as
workflow.yaml
:functions: # Add a tool to search wikipedia wikipedia_search: _type: wiki_search max_results: 2 llms: # Tell AgentIQ which LLM to use for the agent nim_llm: _type: nim model_name: meta/llama-3.1-70b-instruct temperature: 0.0 workflow: # Use an agent that 'reasons' and 'acts' _type: react_agent # Give it access to our wikipedia search tool tool_names: [wikipedia_search] # Tell it which LLM to use llm_name: nim_llm # Make it verbose verbose: true # Retry parsing errors because LLMs are non-deterministic retry_parsing_errors: true # Retry up to 3 times max_retries: 3
-
Run the Hello World example using the
aiq
CLI and theworkflow.yaml
file.aiq run --config_file workflow.yaml --input "List five subspecies of Aardvarks"
This will run the workflow and output the results to the console.
Workflow Result: ['Here are five subspecies of Aardvarks:\n\n1. Orycteropus afer afer (Southern aardvark)\n2. O. a. adametzi Grote, 1921 (Western aardvark)\n3. O. a. aethiopicus Sundevall, 1843\n4. O. a. angolensis Zukowsky & Haltenorth, 1957\n5. O. a. erikssoni Lönnberg, 1906']

genai-toolbox
Gen AI Toolbox for Databases is an open source server that simplifies building Gen AI tools for interacting with databases. It handles complexities like connection pooling, authentication, and more, enabling easier, faster, and more secure tool development. The toolbox sits between the application's orchestration framework and the database, providing a control plane to modify, distribute, or invoke tools. It offers simplified development, better performance, enhanced security, and end-to-end observability. Users can install the toolbox as a binary, container image, or compile from source. Configuration is done through a 'tools.yaml' file, defining sources, tools, and toolsets. The project follows semantic versioning and welcomes contributions.

cognita
Cognita is an open-source framework to organize your RAG codebase along with a frontend to play around with different RAG customizations. It provides a simple way to organize your codebase so that it becomes easy to test it locally while also being able to deploy it in a production ready environment. The key issues that arise while productionizing RAG system from a Jupyter Notebook are: 1. **Chunking and Embedding Job** : The chunking and embedding code usually needs to be abstracted out and deployed as a job. Sometimes the job will need to run on a schedule or be trigerred via an event to keep the data updated. 2. **Query Service** : The code that generates the answer from the query needs to be wrapped up in a api server like FastAPI and should be deployed as a service. This service should be able to handle multiple queries at the same time and also autoscale with higher traffic. 3. **LLM / Embedding Model Deployment** : Often times, if we are using open-source models, we load the model in the Jupyter notebook. This will need to be hosted as a separate service in production and model will need to be called as an API. 4. **Vector DB deployment** : Most testing happens on vector DBs in memory or on disk. However, in production, the DBs need to be deployed in a more scalable and reliable way. Cognita makes it really easy to customize and experiment everything about a RAG system and still be able to deploy it in a good way. It also ships with a UI that makes it easier to try out different RAG configurations and see the results in real time. You can use it locally or with/without using any Truefoundry components. However, using Truefoundry components makes it easier to test different models and deploy the system in a scalable way. Cognita allows you to host multiple RAG systems using one app. ### Advantages of using Cognita are: 1. A central reusable repository of parsers, loaders, embedders and retrievers. 2. Ability for non-technical users to play with UI - Upload documents and perform QnA using modules built by the development team. 3. Fully API driven - which allows integration with other systems. > If you use Cognita with Truefoundry AI Gateway, you can get logging, metrics and feedback mechanism for your user queries. ### Features: 1. Support for multiple document retrievers that use `Similarity Search`, `Query Decompostion`, `Document Reranking`, etc 2. Support for SOTA OpenSource embeddings and reranking from `mixedbread-ai` 3. Support for using LLMs using `Ollama` 4. Support for incremental indexing that ingests entire documents in batches (reduces compute burden), keeps track of already indexed documents and prevents re-indexing of those docs.
