About Event

The new library released by Hugging Face is called smolagents, and it’s one of the latest “smol libraries” to build agentic applications with!

What exactly is small about smolagents?

Here’s what we know from the blog.

  1. We can build agents of different agency levels including Simple processor, Router, Tool Call, Multi-Step Agent, and Multi-Agent

  2. ‘First-class support for Code Agents, i.e. agents that write their actions in code (as opposed to ‘agents being used to write code’)” that uses 30% few steps [Ref]

How does this new library compare to the ones we know well already like LangChain, LlamaIndex, AG2, CrewAI, and others?

Join us live to dig into the small number of lines of code live and build, ship, and share some smolagents!

📚 You’ll learn:

  • How to build agentic applications with HF models and their new smolagents library

  • How HF thinks about agency levels and agentic patterns
