title: Implementing the Sequential Process in CrewAI
|
||||
description: A guide to utilizing the sequential process for task execution in CrewAI projects.
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Introduction
|
||||
The sequential process in CrewAI ensures tasks are executed one after the other, following a linear progression. This approach is akin to a relay race, where each agent completes their task before passing the baton to the next.
|
||||
|
||||
## Sequential Process Overview
|
||||
This process is straightforward and effective, particularly for projects where tasks must be completed in a specific order to achieve the desired outcome.
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Features
|
||||
- **Linear Task Flow**: Tasks are handled in a predetermined sequence, ensuring orderly progression.
|
||||
- **Simplicity**: Ideal for projects with clearly defined, step-by-step tasks.
|
||||
- **Easy Monitoring**: Task completion can be easily tracked, offering clear insights into project progress.
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementing the Sequential Process
|
||||
To apply the sequential process, assemble your crew and define the tasks in the order they need to be executed.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! note "Task assignment"
|
||||
In the sequential process you need to make sure all tasks are assigned to the agents, as the agents will be the ones executing them.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from crewai import Crew, Process, Agent, Task
|
||||
|
||||
# Define your agents
|
||||
researcher = Agent(role='Researcher', goal='Conduct foundational research')
|
||||
analyst = Agent(role='Data Analyst', goal='Analyze research findings')
|
||||
writer = Agent(role='Writer', goal='Draft the final report')
|
||||
|
||||
# Define the tasks in sequence
|
||||
research_task = Task(description='Gather relevant data', agent=researcher)
|
||||
analysis_task = Task(description='Analyze the data', agent=analyst)
|
||||
writing_task = Task(description='Compose the report', agent=writer)
|
||||
|
||||
# Form the crew with a sequential process
|
||||
report_crew = Crew(
|
||||
agents=[researcher, analyst, writer],
|
||||
tasks=[research_task, analysis_task, writing_task],
|
||||
process=Process.sequential
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Workflow in Action
|
||||
1. **Initial Task**: The first agent completes their task and signals completion.
|
||||
2. **Subsequent Tasks**: Following agents pick up their tasks in the order defined, using the outcomes of preceding tasks as inputs.
|
||||
3. **Completion**: The process concludes once the final task is executed, culminating in the project's completion.
|
||||
|
||||
## Conclusion
|
||||
The sequential process in CrewAI provides a clear, straightforward path for task execution. It's particularly suited for projects requiring a logical progression of tasks, ensuring each step is completed before the next begins, thereby facilitating a cohesive final product.
