         chat_queue (List[Dict]): a list of dictionaries containing the information of the chats.
                 Each dictionary should contain the input arguments for `ConversableAgent.initiate_chat`.
                 More specifically, each dictionary could include the following fields:
-                - recipient: the recipient agent.
                 - "sender": the sender agent.
                 - "recipient": the recipient agent.
-                - clear_history (bool): whether to clear the chat history with the agent. Default is True.
-                - silent (bool or None): (Experimental) whether to print the messages for this conversation. Default is False.
-                - cache (Cache or None): the cache client to be used for this conversation. Default is None.
-                - max_turns (int or None): the maximum number of turns for the chat. If None, the chat will continue until a termination condition is met. Default is None.
-                - "message" needs to be provided if the `generate_init_message` method is not overridden.
-                        Otherwise, input() will be called to get the initial message.
-                - "summary_method": a string or callable specifying the method to get a summary from the chat. Default is DEFAULT_summary_method, i.e., "last_msg".
-                    - Supported string are "last_msg" and "reflection_with_llm":
-                        when set "last_msg", it returns the last message of the dialog as the summary.
-                        when set "reflection_with_llm", it returns a summary extracted using an llm client.
-                        `llm_config` must be set in either the recipient or sender.
-                        "reflection_with_llm" requires the llm_config to be set in either the sender or the recipient.
-                    - A callable summary_method should take the recipient and sender agent in a chat as input and return a string of summary. E.g,
-                    ```python
-                    def my_summary_method(
-                        sender: ConversableAgent,

-                    ```
-                - "summary_prompt": This filed can be used to specify the prompt used to extract a summary when summary_method is "reflection_with_llm".
-                    Default is None and the following default prompt will be used when "summary_method" is set to "reflection_with_llm":
-                    "Identify and extract the final solution to the originally asked question based on the conversation."
-                - "carryover": It can be used to specify the carryover information to be passed to this chat.
-                    If provided, we will combine this carryover with the "message" content when generating the initial chat
