Implementation Steps
- 1
Design agent workflow and decision points with LangGraph
- 2
Implement structured outputs with Instructor for reliable parsing
- 3
Add long-term memory using Pinecone vector storage
- 4
Set up Langfuse for tracing and debugging agent behavior
- 5
Test with edge cases and implement proper error handling
- 6
Add human-in-the-loop checkpoints for critical decisions
Expected Outcomes
- Working autonomous agent with memory
- Observable and debuggable agent behavior
- Structured, predictable outputs
- Foundation for multi-agent systems
Pro Tips
- Start simple - single agent before multi-agent
- Log everything - agent debugging is hard
- Add guardrails early
- Test with adversarial inputs
