Type of Change

  • Bug fix
  • New feature
  • Breaking change
  • Documentation update
  • Other (please describe):

Testing

How have you tested the change? Verify that the changes do not break functionality or introduce warnings in consuming repositories: agents-docs, agents-tools, agents-cli

  • I ran hatch run prepare
  • Wrote new unit and integ tests.
  • Ran the following test script:
prompt = "What is 2+2? Think through the steps."


async def func_a():
    model = LiteLLMModel(model_id="us.anthropic.claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219-v1:0")
    agent = Agent(model=model, callback_handler=None)
    result = await agent.invoke_async(prompt)
    print(f"FUNC_A: {result.message}")


async def func_b():
    model = LiteLLMModel(model_id="us.anthropic.claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219-v1:0")
    agent = Agent(model=model, callback_handler=None)
    result = await agent.invoke_async(prompt)
    print(f"FUNC_B: {result.message}")


async def func_c():
    model = LiteLLMModel(model_id="us.anthropic.claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219-v1:0")
    agent = Agent(model=model, callback_handler=None)
    result = await agent.invoke_async(prompt)
    print(f"FUNC_C: {result.message}")


async def func_d():
    model = LiteLLMModel(model_id="us.anthropic.claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219-v1:0")
    agent = Agent(model=model, callback_handler=None)
    result = await agent.invoke_async(prompt)
    print(f"FUNC_D: {result.message}")


async def main():
    await asyncio.gather(func_a(), func_b(), func_c(), func_d())


asyncio.run(main())

Using the sync Python client, every function ran sequentially and the total run time averaged 12s. Using the acompletion, every function ran concurrently and the total run time averaged 6s.
