This code can be converted into a class that inherits from the [`Tool`] superclass.
|
||||
This code can quickly be converted into a tool, just by wrapping it in a function and adding the `tool` decorator:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The custom tool needs:
|
||||
- An attribute `name`, which corresponds to the name of the tool itself. The name usually describes what the tool does. Since the code returns the model with the most downloads for a task, let's name is `model_download_counter`.
|
||||
- An attribute `description` is used to populate the agent's system prompt.
|
||||
- An `inputs` attribute, which is a dictionary with keys `"type"` and `"description"`. It contains information that helps the Python interpreter make educated choices about the input.
|
||||
- An `output_type` attribute, which specifies the output type.
|
||||
- A `forward` method which contains the inference code to be executed.
|
||||
```py
|
||||
from transformers import tool
|
||||
|
||||
@tool
|
||||
def model_download_counter(task: str) -> str:
|
||||
"""
|
||||
This is a tool that returns the most downloaded model of a given task on the Hugging Face Hub.
|
||||
It returns the name of the checkpoint.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from transformers import Tool
|
||||
from huggingface_hub import list_models
|
||||
|
||||
class HFModelDownloadsTool(Tool):
|
||||
name = "model_download_counter"
|
||||
description = (
|
||||
"This is a tool that returns the most downloaded model of a given task on the Hugging Face Hub. "
|
||||
"It returns the name of the checkpoint."
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
inputs = {
|
||||
"task": {
|
||||
"type": "text",
|
||||
"description": "the task category (such as text-classification, depth-estimation, etc)",
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
output_type = "text"
|
||||
|
||||
def forward(self, task: str):
|
||||
model = next(iter(list_models(filter=task, sort="downloads", direction=-1)))
|
||||
return model.id
|
||||
Args:
|
||||
task: The task for which
|
||||
"""
|
||||
model = next(iter(list_models(filter="text-classification", sort="downloads", direction=-1)))
|
||||
return model.id
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now that the custom `HfModelDownloadsTool` class is ready, you can save it to a file named `model_downloads.py` and import it for use.
|
||||
The function needs:
|
||||
- A clear name. The name usually describes what the tool does. Since the code returns the model with the most downloads for a task, let's put `model_download_counter`.
|
||||
- Type hints on both inputs and output
|
||||
- A description, that includes an 'Args:' part where each argument is described (without a type indication this time, it will be pulled from the type hint).
|
||||
All these will be automatically baked into the agent's system prompt upon initialization: so strive to make them as clear as possible!
|
||||
|
||||
> [!TIP]
|
||||
> This definition format is the same as tool schemas used in `apply_chat_template`, the only difference is the added `tool` decorator: read more on our tool use API [here](https://huggingface.co/blog/unified-tool-use#passing-tools-to-a-chat-template).
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from model_downloads import HFModelDownloadsTool
|
||||
|
||||
tool = HFModelDownloadsTool()
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also share your custom tool to the Hub by calling [`~Tool.push_to_hub`] on the tool. Make sure you've created a repository for it on the Hub and are using a token with read access.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
tool.push_to_hub("{your_username}/hf-model-downloads")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Load the tool with the [`~Tool.load_tool`] function and pass it to the `tools` parameter in your agent.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from transformers import load_tool, CodeAgent
|
||||
|
||||
model_download_tool = load_tool("m-ric/hf-model-downloads")
|
||||
Then you can directly initialize your agent:
|
||||
```py
|
||||
from transformers import CodeAgent
|
||||
agent = CodeAgent(tools=[model_download_tool], llm_engine=llm_engine)
|
||||
agent.run(
|
||||
"Can you give me the name of the model that has the most downloads in the 'text-to-video' task on the Hugging Face Hub?"
|
||||
@@ -400,7 +375,6 @@ print(f"The most downloaded model for the 'text-to-video' task is {most_download
|
||||
And the output:
|
||||
`"The most downloaded model for the 'text-to-video' task is ByteDance/AnimateDiff-Lightning."`
|
||||

||||
|
||||
### Manage your agent's toolbox
|
||||
|
||||
If you have already initialized an agent, it is inconvenient to reinitialize it from scratch with a tool you want to use. With Transformers, you can manage an agent's toolbox by adding or replacing a tool.
