What is ALTK?

The Agent Lifecycle Toolkit helps agent builders create better performing agents by addressing key agent errors.

  • Does your agent not follow instructions?
    Spotlight emphasizes important spans in prompts to steer LLM attention.
  • Does your agent struggle to route to the right tool?
    Retrieval Augmented Thinking provides your agent with tool hints generated from tool domain content.
  • Does your agent generate inconsistent tool sequences?
    Refraction validates and repairs tool call syntax to prevent execution failures.
  • Is your agent calling tools with hallucinated arguments or struggling to choose the correct tools in the right order?
    SPARC makes sure tool calls match the tool specifications and request semantics, and are generated correctly based on the conversation.
  • Is your agent overwhelmed with large JSON payloads in its context?
    JSON Processor generates code on the fly to extract relevant data in JSON tool responses.
  • Is your agent ignoring subtle semantic tool errors?
    Silent Error Review detects silent errors in tool responses and assess relevance, accuracy, and completeness.
  • Is your agent not able to recover from tool call failures?
    RAG Repair repairs failed tool calls using domain-specific documents via Retrieval-Augmented Generation.
  • Does your agent return responses that violate policies or instructions?
    Policy Guard ensures agent outputs comply with defined policies and repairs them if needed.
  • Does your tool have clear metadata or docstrings for the agent?
    Tool Enrichment generates tool and parameter descriptions to enhance tool calling.
  • Has your agent been tested to call the correct tool with the right arguments?
    Test Case Generation generates user utterances to test its behavior across a variety of scenarios.
  • Does your agent call the correct tool with the right arguments for these test cases?
    Tool Validation invokes the agent with test utterances and identify different types of tool-selection and argument-related errors.
