LangChain ReAct Agent Skill
Capabilities
- Implement ReAct (Reasoning + Acting) agent patterns using LangChain
- Configure tool binding and function calling for agents
- Design thought-action-observation loops
- Integrate with various LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.)
- Handle agent memory and state persistence
- Implement error handling and retry logic for agent actions
Target Processes
