Load an agent executor given tools and LLM.
Parameters
tools – List of tools this agent has access to.
llm – Language model to use as the agent.
agent – Agent type to use. If None and agent_path is also None, will default to
AgentType.ZERO_SHOT_REACT_DESCRIPTION.
callback_manager – CallbackManager to use. Global callback manager is used if
not provided. Defaults to None.
agent_path – Path to serialized agent to use.
agent_kwargs – Additional key word arguments to pass to the underlying agent
**kwargs – Additional key word arguments passed to the agent executor
Returns
An agent executor

Load tools based on their name.
Parameters
tool_names – name of tools to load.
llm – Optional language model, may be needed to initialize certain tools.
callbacks – Optional callback manager or list of callback handlers.
If not provided, default global callback manager will be used.
Returns
List of tools.
langchain.agents.tool(*args: Union[str, Callable], return_direct: bool = False, args_schema: Optional[Type[pydantic.main.BaseModel]] = None, infer_schema: bool = True) → Callable[source]#
Make tools out of functions, can be used with or without arguments.
Parameters
*args – The arguments to the tool.
return_direct – Whether to return directly from the tool rather
than continuing the agent loop.
args_schema – optional argument schema for user to specify
infer_schema – Whether to infer the schema of the arguments from
the function’s signature. This also makes the resultant tool
accept a dictionary input to its run() function.
Requires:
Function must be of type (str) -> str
Function must have a docstring
Examples
@tool
def search_api(query: str) -> str:
    # Searches the API for the query.
    return
@tool("search", return_direct=True)
def search_api(query: str) -> str:
