This notebook demonstrates how to set up and leverage CAMEL’s ability to create your first agent society through RolePlaying()class. In this notebook, you’ll explore:
  • CAMEL: A powerful multi-agent framework that enables Retrieval-Augmented Generation and multi-agent role-playing scenarios, allowing for sophisticated AI-driven tasks.
  • Agent Society: Enabling multi-agent communication for the task solving.

Philosophical Bits

What magical trick makes us intelligent? The trick is that there is no trick. The power of intelligence stems from our vast diversity, not from any single, perfect principle. — Marvin Minsky, The Society of Mind, p. 308
In this section, we will take a spite of the task-oriented RolePlaying() class. We design this in an instruction-following manner. The essence is that to solve a complex task, you can enable two communicative agents collaboratively working together step by step to reach solutions. The main concepts include:
  • Task: a task can be as simple as an idea, initialized by an inception prompt.
  • AI User: the agent who is expected to provide instructions.
  • AI Assistant: the agent who is expected to respond with solutions that fulfills the instructions.

​
📦 Installation

!pip install "camel-ai==0.2.16"

​
🔑 Setting Up API Keys

You’ll need to set up your API keys for OpenAI. 
import os
from getpass import getpass

# Prompt for the API key securely
openai_api_key = getpass('Enter your API key: ')
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = openai_api_key
Alternatively, if running on Colab, you could save your API keys and tokens as Colab Secrets, and use them across notebooks. To do so, comment out the above manual API key prompt code block(s), and uncomment the following codeblock. ⚠️ Don’t forget granting access to the API key you would be using to the current notebook. 
# import os
# from google.colab import userdata

# os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = userdata.get("OPENAI_API_KEY")

​
Quick Start

# Import necessary classes
from camel.societies import RolePlaying
from camel.types import TaskType, ModelType, ModelPlatformType
from camel.configs import ChatGPTConfig
from camel.models import ModelFactory

model = ModelFactory.create(
    model_platform=ModelPlatformType.OPENAI,
    model_type=ModelType.GPT_4O_MINI,
    model_config_dict=ChatGPTConfig(temperature=0.0).as_dict(), # [Optional] the config for model
)

​
🕹 Step 1: Configure the Role-Playing Session

​
Set the Task Arguments

task_kwargs = {
    'task_prompt': 'Develop a plan to TRAVEL TO THE PAST and make changes.',
    'with_task_specify': True,
    'task_specify_agent_kwargs': {'model': model}
}

​
Set the User Arguments

You may think the user as the instruction sender. 
user_role_kwargs = {
    'user_role_name': 'an ambitious aspiring TIME TRAVELER',
    'user_agent_kwargs': {'model': model}
}

​
Set the Assistant Arguments

Again, you may think the assistant as the instruction executor. 
assistant_role_kwargs = {
    'assistant_role_name': 'the best-ever experimental physicist',
    'assistant_agent_kwargs': {'model': model}
}

​
Step 2: Kickstart Your Society

Putting them altogether – your role-playing session is ready to go! 
society = RolePlaying(
    **task_kwargs,             # The task arguments
    **user_role_kwargs,        # The instruction sender's arguments
    **assistant_role_kwargs,   # The instruction receiver's arguments
)

​
Step 3: Solving Tasks with Your Society

Hold your bytes. Prior to our travel, let’s define a small helper function. 
def is_terminated(response):
    """
    Give alerts when the session should be terminated.
    """
    if response.terminated:
        role = response.msg.role_type.name
        reason = response.info['termination_reasons']
        print(f'AI {role} terminated due to {reason}')

    return response.terminated
Time to chart our course – writing a simple loop for our society to proceed: 
def run(society, round_limit: int=10):

    # Get the initial message from the ai assistant to the ai user
    input_msg = society.init_chat()

    # Starting the interactive session
    for _ in range(round_limit):

        # Get the both responses for this round
        assistant_response, user_response = society.step(input_msg)

        # Check the termination condition
        if is_terminated(assistant_response) or is_terminated(user_response):
            break

        # Get the results
        print(f'[AI User] {user_response.msg.content}.\n')
        # Check if the task is end
        if 'CAMEL_TASK_DONE' in user_response.msg.content:
            break
        print(f'[AI Assistant] {assistant_response.msg.content}.\n')



        # Get the input message for the next round
        input_msg = assistant_response.msg

    return None

run(society)
