Classifier overview

The Classifier is a crucial component of the Multi-Agent Orchestrator, responsible for analyzing user input and identifying the most appropriate agents. The orchestrator supports multiple classifier implementations, with Bedrock Classifier and Anthropic Classifier being the primary options.

Available Classifiers

• Bedrock Classifier leverages Amazon Bedrock’s AI models for intent classification. It is the default classifier used by the orchestrator.

• Anthropic Classifier uses Anthropic’s AI models for intent classification. It provides an alternative option for users who prefer or have access to Anthropic’s services.

Process Flow

Regardless of the classifier used, the general process remains the same:

1. User input is collected by the orchestrator.
2. The Classifier performs input analysis, considering:
   • Conversation history across all agents
   • Individual agent profiles and capabilities
3. The most suitable agent is determined.

Initialization

When you create a new Orchestrator by initializing a MultiAgentOrchestrator the default Bedrock Classifier is initialized.

TypeScript

const orchestrator = new MultiAgentOrchestrator();

Python

from multi_agent_orchestrator.orchestrator import MultiAgentOrchestrator

orchestrator = MultiAgentOrchestrator()

To use the Anthropic Classifier, you can pass it as an option:

TypeScript

import { AnthropicClassifier } from "multi-agent-orchestrator";

const anthropicClassifier = new AnthropicClassifier({
  apiKey: 'your-anthropic-api-key'
});
const orchestrator = new MultiAgentOrchestrator({ classifier: anthropicClassifier });

Python

from multi_agent_orchestrator.orchestrator import MultiAgentOrchestrator
from multi_agent_orchestrator.classifiers import AnthropicClassifier, AnthropicClassifierOptions

anthropic_classifier = AnthropicClassifier(AnthropicClassifierOptions(
    api_key='your-anthropic-api-key'
))
orchestrator = MultiAgentOrchestrator(classifier=anthropic_classifier)

Custom Classifier Implementation

You can provide your own custom implementation of the classifier by extending the abstract Classifier class. For details on how to do this, please refer to the Custom Classifier section.

Testing

You can test any Classifier directly using the classify method:

TypeScript

const response = await orchestrator.classifyIntent(userInput, userId, sessionId);
console.log('\n** RESPONSE ** \n');
console.log(` > Agent ID: ${response.selectedAgent?.id}`);
console.log(` > Agent Name: ${response.selectedAgent?.name}`);
console.log(` > Confidence: ${response.confidence}\n`);

Python

import asyncio

async def test_classifier():
    user_input = "What are the symptoms of the flu?"
    user_id = "test_user"
    session_id = "test_session"

    # Fetch chat history (this might vary depending on your implementation)
    chat_history = await orchestrator.storage.fetch_all_chats(user_id, session_id)

    # Classify the input
    response = await orchestrator.classifier.classify(user_input, chat_history)

    print('\n** RESPONSE ** \n')
    print(f" > Agent ID: {response.selected_agent.id if response.selected_agent else 'None'}")
    print(f" > Agent Name: {response.selected_agent.name if response.selected_agent else 'None'}")
    print(f" > Confidence: {response.confidence}\n")

# Run the async function
asyncio.run(test_classifier())

This allows you to:

• Verify the Classifier’s decision-making process
• Test different inputs and conversation scenarios
• Fine-tune the system prompt or agent descriptions

Common Issues

• Misclassification: If you notice frequent misclassifications, review and update agent descriptions or adjust the system prompt.
• API Key Issues: For AnthropicClassifier, ensure your API key is valid and properly configured.
• Model Availability: For BedrockClassifier, ensure you have access to the specified Amazon Bedrock model in your AWS account.

Choosing the Right Classifier

When deciding between different classifiers, consider:

1. API Access: Which service you have access to and prefer.
2. Model Performance: Test classifiers with your specific use case to determine which performs better for your needs.
3. Cost: Compare the pricing structures for your expected usage.

By thoroughly testing and debugging your chosen Classifier, you can ensure accurate intent classification and efficient query routing in your Multi-Agent Orchestrator.
