Agent Continuous Integration/Continuos Delivery

Exploring function calling 🗣️ 🤖 with Python and ollama 🦙

Function-calling with Python and ollama. We are going to use the Africa's Talking API to send airtime and messages to a phone number using Natural language. Thus, creating an generative ai agent. Here are examples of prompts you can use to send airtime to a phone number:

  • Send airtime to xxxxxxxxx2046 and xxxxxxxxx3524 with an amount of 10 in currency KES
  • Send a message to xxxxxxxxx2046 and xxxxxxxxx3524 with a message "Hello, how are you?", using the username "username".

NB: The phone numbers are placeholders for the actual phone numbers. You need some VRAM to run this project. You can get VRAM from here We recommend 400MB-8GB of VRAM for this project. It can run on CPU however, I recommend smaller models for this.

Mistral 7B, llama 3.2 3B/1B, Qwen 2.5: 0.5/1.5B, nemotron-mini 4b and llama3.1 8B are the recommended models for this project.

Ensure ollama is installed on your laptop/server and running before running this project. You can install ollama from here Learn more about tool calling https://gorilla.cs.berkeley.edu/leaderboard.html

Installation

The project uses python 3.12. To install the project, follow the steps below:

  • Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/Shuyib/tool_calling_api.git
  • Change directory to the project directory
cd tool_calling_api

Create a virtual environment

python3 -m venv .venv

Activate the virtual environment

source .venv/bin/activate

Confirm if steps of Makefile are working

make -n
  • Install the dependencies
make install
  • Run the project
make run

Long way to run the project

  • Change directory to the utils directory
cd utils
  • Run the function_call.py file
python function_call.py
  • Run the Gradion UI instead
python ../app.py

Run in Docker

To run the project in Docker, follow the steps below:

NB: You'll need to have deployed ollama elsewhere as an example here or here. Make edits to the app.py file to point to the ollama server. You can use the OpenAI SDK to interact with the ollama server. An example can be found here.

  • Linting dockerfile
make docker_run_test
  • Build and run the Docker image
make docker_run

Notes:

  • The .env file contains the environment variables for the project. You can create a .env file and add the following environment variables:
echo "AT_API_KEY = yourapikey" >> .env
echo "AT_USERNAME = yourusername" >> .env
echo "GROQ_API_KEY = yourgroqapikey" >> .env
echo "LANGTRACE_API_KEY= yourlangtraceapikey" >> .env
echo "TEST_PHONE_NUMBER = yourphonenumber" >> .env
echo "TEST_PHONE_NUMBER_2 = yourphonenumber" >> .env
echo "TEST_PHONE_NUMBER_3 = yourphonenumber" >> .env
  • The Dockerfile creates 2 images for the ollama server and the gradio dashboard. The ollama server is running on port 11434 and the gradio dashboard is running on port 7860 . You can access the gradio dashboard by visiting http://localhost:7860 in your browser & the ollama server by visiting http://localhost:11434 in your browser. They consume about 2.72GB of storage in the container.
  • The docker-compose.yml file is used to run the ollama server and the gradio dashboard. The docker-compose-codecarbon.yml file is used to run the ollama server, the gradio dashboard and the codecarbon project.
  • You can learn more about how to make this system even more secure. Do this course.

Run in runpod.io

Make an account if you haven't already. Once that's settled.

  • Click on Deploy under Pods.
  • Select the cheapest option pod to deploy for example RTX 2000 Ada.
  • This will create a jupyter lab instance.
  • Follow the Installation steps in the terminal available. Until the make install.
  • Run this command. Install ollama and serve it then redirect output to a log file.
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh && ollama serve > ollama.log 2>&1 &
  • Install your preferred model in the same terminal.
ollama run qwen2.5:0.5b
  • Export your credentials but, if you are using a .env file, you can skip this step. It will be useful for Docker.
export AT_API_KEY=yourapikey
export AT_USERNAME=yourusername
export GROQ_API_KEY=yourgroqapikey
export LANGTRACE_API_KEY=yourlangtraceapikey
export TEST_PHONE_NUMBER=yourphonenumber
export TEST_PHONE_NUMBER_2=yourphonenumber
export TEST_PHONE_NUMBER_3=yourphonenumber
  • Continue running the installation steps in the terminal.
  • Send your first message and airtime with an LLM. 🌠

Usage

This project uses LLMs to send airtime to a phone number. The difference is that we are going to use the Africa's Talking API to send airtime to a phone number using Natural language. Here are examples of prompts you can use to send airtime to a phone number:

  • Send airtime to xxxxxxxxxx046 and xxxxxxxxxx524 with an amount of 10 in currency KES.
  • Send a message to xxxxxxxxxx046 and xxxxxxxxxx524 with a message "Hello, how are you?", using the username "username".

Updated Usage Instructions

  • The app now supports both Text and Voice input tabs.
  • In the Voice Input tab, record audio and click "Transcribe" to preview the transcription. Then click "Process Edited Text" to execute voice commands.
  • In the Text Input tab, directly type commands to send airtime or messages or to search news.

Responsible AI Practices

This project implements several responsible AI practices:

  • All test data is anonymized to protect privacy.
  • Input validation to prevent misuse (negative amounts, spam detection).
  • Handling of sensitive content and edge cases.
  • Comprehensive test coverage for various scenarios.
  • Secure handling of credentials and personal information.

Process Summary

Use cases

* Non-Technical User Interfaces: Simplifies the process for non-coders to interact with APIs, making it easier for them to send airtime and messages without needing to understand the underlying code.
* Customer Support Automation: Enables customer support teams to quickly send airtime or messages to clients using natural language commands, improving efficiency and response times.
* Marketing Campaigns: Facilitates the automation of promotional messages and airtime rewards to customers, enhancing engagement and retention.
* Emergency Notifications: Allows rapid dissemination of urgent alerts and notifications to a large number of recipients using simple prompts.
* Educational Tools: Provides a practical example for teaching how to integrate APIs with natural language processing, which can be beneficial for coding bootcamps and workshops.
* Multilingual Support: Supports multiple languages when sending messages and airtime, making it accessible to a diverse range of users. Testing for Arabic, French, English and Portuguese.

Limitations

  • The project is limited to sending airtime, searching for news, and messages using the Africa's Talking API. The functionality can be expanded to include other APIs and services.

  • The jailbreaking of the LLMS is a limitation. The LLMS are not perfect and can be manipulated to produce harmful outputs. This can be mitigated by using a secure environment and monitoring the outputs for any malicious content. However, the Best of N technique and prefix injection were effective in changing model behavior.

  • A small number of test cases were used to test the project. More test cases can be added to cover a wider range of scenarios and edge cases.
