YAML Composer

Build an entire multi-agent setup from a single YAML file.

pip install orxhestra[composer]

Minimal example

defaults:
  model:
    provider: openai
    name: gpt-5.4

agents:
  assistant:
    type: llm
    instructions: "You are a helpful assistant."

main_agent: assistant

from orxhestra.composer import Composer

agent = Composer.from_yaml("orx.yaml")
async for event in agent.astream("Hello"):
    print(event.text)

Named models

models:
  smart:
    provider: anthropic
    name: claude-opus-4-7
    max_tokens: 8192
  fast:
    provider: openai
    name: gpt-5.4-mini

agents:
  researcher:
    type: llm
    model: smart
  writer:
    type: llm
    model: fast

Extra keys on a model config are forwarded directly to the LangChain model constructor.
