A simple documentation assistant built with LangGraph.

This is a documentation assistant agent that helps answer questions about LangChain, LangGraph, and LangSmith. It demonstrates how to build a production-ready agent using:

• LangGraph - For agent orchestration and state management
• LangChain Agents - For agent creation with middleware support
• Guardrails - To keep conversations on-topic

• Documentation Search - Searches official LangChain docs
• Support KB - Searches the Pylon knowledge base for known issues
• Link Validation - Verifies URLs before including in responses
• Guardrails - Filters off-topic queries

• Python 3.11+
• uv (recommended) or pip

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/langchain-ai/chat-langchain.git
cd chat-langchain

# Install dependencies with uv
uv sync

# Or with pip
pip install -e . "langgraph-cli[inmem]"

# Copy environment template
cp .env.example .env

# Edit .env with your API keys

# Start LangGraph development server
uv run langgraph dev

# Or with pip

The agent uses a docs-first research strategy:

1. Guardrails Check - Validates the query is LangChain-related
2. Documentation Search - Searches official docs via Mintlify
3. Knowledge Base - Searches Pylon for known issues/solutions
4. Link Validation - Verifies any URLs before including them
5. Response Generation - Synthesizes a helpful answer

1. Push to GitHub
2. Connect repository in LangSmith
3. Configure environment variables
4. Deploy
