Chapter 1: Understanding AI Agent Teams (10 Pages)

  • 1.1 The Basics of AI Agents (2 Pages)
    An AI agent is an autonomous software entity that can perceive its environment, make decisions, and take actions to achieve specific goals. Unlike traditional automation methods, AI agents leverage machine learning and natural language processing (NLP) to understand complex tasks and adapt to changing conditions. The fundamental difference lies in their capacity to interpret unstructured data and operate with less manual intervention. AI agent teams take this a step further by creating a network of interconnected AI agents that collaboratively solve complex problems. This collaborative approach is what makes AI agent teams more versatile and efficient than older automation technologies.
  • 1.2 Structure of an AI Agent Team (3 Pages)
    An AI agent team is typically composed of three main types of agents: Director Agents, Manager Agents, and Sub-Agents. The Director Agent serves as the central coordinator, managing the entire workflow and making high-level decisions. Manager Agents are specialized in specific domains such as communication, project management, research, and content creation. They oversee the activities of their respective sub-agents. Sub-Agents perform specific tasks under the guidance of their manager agents. They execute concrete steps in each workflow. These roles enable a structured approach to automation, providing flexibility and scalability. The flow of information goes from user input to the Director, which coordinates with appropriate Manager Agents, who then allocate the work to Sub-Agents for task completion, ensuring the entire system functions smoothly.
  • 1.3 Key Functions of an AI Agent Team (3 Pages)
    AI agent teams can access various communication channels like WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Email, Calendar, Slack, and even voice calls, enabling them to interact with different platforms seamlessly. They can also manage project tools such as CRMs, Notion, Google Docs, and Google Drive. These teams are capable of conducting research, generating content, and publishing on social media. A user can simply communicate with an AI agent using voice messages and it will interpret and execute complex instructions. For example, a user could instruct the system to find the best flight option, add it to a Google Doc, and send it through WhatsApp; or, to research a new lead, add to CRM and notify the team on Slack.
  • 1.4 Core Technologies (2 Pages)
    AI agent teams rely on several core technologies. Natural Language Processing (NLP) enables the agents to understand and interpret human language, and Natural Language Understanding (NLU) further allows the agents to grasp the context and intent behind user requests. APIs connect the AI agent team to other applications and data sources. These APIs enable real-time data exchange and automation across different platforms. Machine learning and deep learning models are utilized to enhance the AI agents ability to learn from data, refine their responses, and improve task completion over time. Popular examples include OpenAI API and Langchain which serve as building blocks for constructing complex AI systems.

Chapter 2: Preparing to Build Your AI Agent Team (10 Pages)

  • 2.1 Setting Up Your Relevance AI Account (3 Pages)
    The first step in building your AI agent team is to set up an account with Relevance AI. This platform provides the necessary tools and infrastructure for building, deploying, and managing AI agents. Visit the Relevance AI website, sign up for a new account, and familiarize yourself with the platform's basic features. Once signed in, you'll be able to access the Relevance AI dashboard, manage projects, and create new AI agents. You will also need to obtain an API key to enable secure communication between the agent system and the Relevance AI platform. Remember to keep this API Key private. The Relevance AI platform provides detailed documentation and support resources, which are helpful for understanding how to best utilize the platform.
  • 2.2 Project Planning and Agent Definition (4 Pages)
    Before diving into the technical details, it’s important to plan out the tasks you intend to automate. Begin by defining the specific workflows you want the AI agent team to handle, and identify each task. Next, list all the agents you will need, including their unique roles, objectives, and tasks. For example, the Communication Manager will handle interactions across different platforms, whereas the Project Manager will focus on updating CRMs and project management tools. Specify each agent’s responsibilities and the tools they will utilize. This definition process is crucial as it lays out the blueprint for building your AI agent team. A well-structured plan will make the development process much smoother.
  • 2.3 Tools and API Integration Plan (3 Pages)
    Each AI agent requires certain tools and APIs to function correctly. For instance, the WhatsApp agent will require the WhatsApp Business API to send and receive messages; the Google Docs agent will require the Google Drive API for document interaction. Develop a comprehensive plan of which tools and APIs each agent will require, including the specific function of each API and its usage. The plan should outline API authentication requirements, access permissions, and any necessary setup procedures. Prioritize the necessary APIs based on your immediate needs, then identify the useful APIs that will enhance the functionality of the AI agent team further.

Chapter 3: Building Your AI Agent Team in Practice (30 Pages)

  • 3.1 Setting Up the Director Agent (5 Pages)
    Start by creating a profile for the Director Agent, including its name, description, and role. The Director Agent’s primary function is to manage the workflow, coordinate agents, and oversee the execution of tasks. In the "Core Instructions," define the agent's goal, responsibilities, and any constraints it has. For instance, the core instructions might state that all tasks must be completed within a given time frame. You also need to provide the Director Agent with context about its sub-agents so it can effectively coordinate them. This can be done by defining a set of parameters each agent will work with. The Director Agent also needs to connect to essential tools, such as the WhatsApp API and date/time tool. Here’s an example of Python code using Relevance AI:
# Director Agent
    agent = relevanceai.Agent("Director_Agent")
    # Set core instructions
    core_instructions = {
        "goal": "Efficiently automate workflows",
        "responsibility": [
            "Manage overall workflow",
            "Coordinate other agents",
            "Handle errors",
            "Process user requests"
        ],
        "constraint": "Complete tasks on time."
    }
    agent.set_core_instructions(core_instructions)
    # Set tool: WhatsApp API
    whatsapp_tool = relevanceai.Tool(
        name="WhatsApp_Tool",
        type="whatsapp",
        api_key="[YOUR_WHATSAPP_API_KEY]"
    )
    agent.add_tool(whatsapp_tool)
    # Set tool: Current Date Tool
    date_tool = relevanceai.Tool(
        name="Current_Date_Tool",
        type="date"
    )
    agent.add_tool(date_tool)

  • 3.3 Detailed Configuration of Sub-Agents (10 Pages)
    Once manager agents are set up, you need to configure each sub-agent in detail. For instance, the WhatsApp agent should be configured to send messages, while the LinkedIn agent will need to be configured to perform tasks such as sending connection requests. Each sub-agent requires specific APIs and tools, and needs to be configured correctly to perform its tasks. The specific details for each sub agent vary depending on the platform it integrates with. When configuring agents for content generation, consider applying fine-tuned models to ensure a better result. Here's an example of how to add a fine-tuned model for a LinkedIn posting agent:
# Load fine-tuned model
        fine_tuned_model = relevanceai.Model.load("[YOUR_FINE_TUNED_MODEL_ID]")
        linkedin_post_agent.set_model(fine_tuned_model)

         # LinkedIn Posting Agent
         linkedin_post_agent = relevanceai.Agent("LinkedIn_Post_Agent")
         linkedin_posting_tool = relevanceai.Tool(
            name="LinkedIn_Posting_Tool",
            type="linkedin_posting",
            api_key="[YOUR_LINKEDIN_API_KEY]"
            )
         linkedin_post_agent.add_tool(linkedin_posting_tool)
Use code with caution.Python

Chapter 4: Workflow Automation and Additional Features (20 Pages)

  • 4.1 Workflow Automation with Make.com (8 Pages)
    Make.com is a powerful tool for automating workflows between different applications and services. You will be setting up Make.com to integrate into the AI agent team workflow. This can be achieved by creating scenarios, setting up HTTP requests, configuring headers and bodies for APIs, and scheduling specific actions. Each scenario in Make.com starts with a trigger which can be a webhook, a scheduled time, or another event. For example, HTTP requests can be used to send data to various API endpoints. Here’s an example:
Module: HTTP Request
URL: https://api.example.com/data
Method: POST
Headers:
    Content-Type: application/json
    Authorization: Bearer [YOUR_API_TOKEN]
Body:
    {
        "key1": "value1",
        "key2": "value2"
    }
Use code with caution.Text

Here's an example of a trigger configuration:

Trigger: Schedule
Schedule: Every day at 9:00 AM

Trigger: Webhook
Webhook URL: [YOUR_WEBHOOK_URL]
Use code with caution.Text

For example, a workflow for finding flight options can be built using Make.com: user input goes through the Director, then to the Research Manager, whose Travel Agent searches for flights and stores results in Google Docs, then the Communication Manager is notified to send results to the user. Another example of workflow automation is the process of changing a lunch meeting, which initiates a schedule change with a notification to others via WhatsApp, done using calendar and communication agents.

  • 4.2 Optional WhatsApp Business API Configuration (5 Pages)
    For an enhanced interaction with WhatsApp, you can set up the WhatsApp Business API. This involves obtaining an API key, setting up a webhook URL, and implementing media processing logic (e.g. images or audio). Here's a text based configuration sample:
WhatsApp Business API Configuration:
1. API Key: [YOUR_WHATSAPP_BUSINESS_API_KEY]
2. Webhook URL: [YOUR_WEBHOOK_URL]
Use code with caution.Text

When using audio messages, you'll need to use a speech-to-text API to interpret the audio before passing it on to an agent. Here’s an example:

def transcribe_audio(audio_file):
   # STT (Speech-to-Text) API 호출
   text = stt_api.transcribe(audio_file)
   return text
Use code with caution.Python
  • 4.3 Image and Document Processing (4 Pages)
    For systems that need to interact with image and document data, incorporating OCR and image recognition features is essential. To achieve this, integrate OCR APIs and image recognition tools so that the system can extract meaningful data from images or document files. After extraction, the data will then be passed to the relevant agents for further processing.
def extract_text_from_image(image_file):
    # OCR API 호출
    text = ocr_api.extract_text(image_file)
    return text
def analyze_image(image_file):
    # 이미지 인식 API 호출
    analysis_result = image_recognition_api.analyze(image_file)
    return analysis_result
Use code with caution.Python
  • 4.4 Developing and Using Additional Features (3 Pages)
    You can extend your AI agent team's capabilities by adding support for multiple languages, creating a user-friendly dashboard, and generating visual statistics. For multi-lingual support, you will have to use language translation APIs.
