+ Learning Resources
+
+Learn CrewAI through our comprehensive courses:
+
+- [Multi AI Agent Systems with CrewAI](https://www.deeplearning.ai/short-courses/multi-ai-agent-systems-with-crewai/) - Master the fundamentals of multi-agent systems
+- [Practical Multi AI Agents and Advanced Use Cases](https://www.deeplearning.ai/short-courses/practical-multi-ai-agents-and-advanced-use-cases-with-crewai/) - Deep dive into advanced implementations
+
+### Understanding Flows and Crews
+
+CrewAI offers two powerful, complementary approaches that work seamlessly together to build sophisticated AI applications:
+
+1. **Crews**: Teams of AI agents with true autonomy and agency, working together to accomplish complex tasks through role-based collaboration. Crews enable:
+
+   - Natural, autonomous decision-making between agents
+   - Dynamic task delegation and collaboration
+   - Specialized roles with defined goals and expertise
+   - Flexible problem-solving approaches
+2. **Flows**: Production-ready, event-driven workflows that deliver precise control over complex automations. Flows provide:
+
+   - Fine-grained control over execution paths for real-world scenarios
+   - Secure, consistent state management between tasks
+   - Clean integration of AI agents with production Python code
+   - Conditional branching for complex business logic
+
+The true power of CrewAI emerges when combining Crews and Flows. This synergy allows you to:
+
+- Build complex, production-grade applications
+- Balance autonomy with precise control
+- Handle sophisticated real-world scenarios
+- Maintain clean, maintainable code structure

 ```shell
 pip install 'crewai[tools]'
 ```
+
 The command above installs the basic package and also adds extra components which require more dependencies to function.
 
+### Troubleshooting Dependencies
+
+If you encounter issues during installation or usage, here are some common solutions:
+
+#### Common Issues
+
+1. **ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tiktoken'**
+
+   - Install tiktoken explicitly: `pip install 'crewai[embeddings]'`
+   - If using embedchain or other tools: `pip install 'crewai[tools]'`
+2. **Failed building wheel for tiktoken**
+
+   - Ensure Rust compiler is installed (see installation steps above)
+   - For Windows: Verify Visual C++ Build Tools are installed
+   - Try upgrading pip: `pip install --upgrade pip`
+   - If issues persist, use a pre-built wheel: `pip install tiktoken --prefer-binary`

+### Using Crews and Flows Together
+
+CrewAI's power truly shines when combining Crews with Flows to create sophisticated automation pipelines.
+CrewAI flows support logical operators like `or_` and `and_` to combine multiple conditions. This can be used with `@start`, `@listen`, or `@router` decorators to create complex triggering conditions.
+
+- `or_`: Triggers when any of the specified conditions are met.
+- `and_`Triggers when all of the specified conditions are met.
+
+Here's how you can orchestrate multiple Crews within a Flow:
+
+```python
+from crewai.flow.flow import Flow, listen, start, router, or_
+from crewai import Crew, Agent, Task, Process
+from pydantic import BaseModel
+
+# Define structured state for precise control
+class MarketState(BaseModel):
+    sentiment: str = "neutral"
+    confidence: float = 0.0
+    recommendations: list = []
+
+class AdvancedAnalysisFlow(Flow[MarketState]):
+    @start()
+    def fetch_market_data(self):
+        # Demonstrate low-level control with structured state
+        self.state.sentiment = "analyzing"
+        return {"sector": "tech", "timeframe": "1W"}  # These parameters match the task description template
+
+    @listen(fetch_market_data)
+    def analyze_with_crew(self, market_data):
+        # Show crew agency through specialized roles
+        analyst = Agent(
+            role="Senior Market Analyst",
+            goal="Conduct deep market analysis with expert insight",
+            backstory="You're a veteran analyst known for identifying subtle market patterns"
+        )
+        researcher = Agent(
+            role="Data Researcher",
+            goal="Gather and validate supporting market data",
+            backstory="You excel at finding and correlating multiple data sources"
+        )
+
+        analysis_task = Task(
+            description="Analyze {sector} sector data for the past {timeframe}",
+            expected_output="Detailed market analysis with confidence score",
+            agent=analyst
+        )
+        research_task = Task(
+            description="Find supporting data to validate the analysis",
+            expected_output="Corroborating evidence and potential contradictions",
+            agent=researcher
+        )
+
+        # Demonstrate crew autonomy
+        analysis_crew = Crew(
+            agents=[analyst, researcher],
+            tasks=[analysis_task, research_task],
+            process=Process.sequential,
+            verbose=True
+        )
+        return analysis_crew.kickoff(inputs=market_data)  # Pass market_data as named inputs
+
+    @router(analyze_with_crew)
+    def determine_next_steps(self):
+        # Show flow control with conditional routing
+        if self.state.confidence > 0.8:
+            return "high_confidence"
+        elif self.state.confidence > 0.5:
+            return "medium_confidence"
+        return "low_confidence"
+
+    @listen("high_confidence")
+    def execute_strategy(self):
+        # Demonstrate complex decision making
+        strategy_crew = Crew(
+            agents=[
+                Agent(role="Strategy Expert",
+                      goal="Develop optimal market strategy")
+            ],
+            tasks=[
+                Task(description="Create detailed strategy based on analysis",
+                     expected_output="Step-by-step action plan")
+            ]
+        )
+        return strategy_crew.kickoff()
+
+    @listen(or_("medium_confidence", "low_confidence"))
+    def request_additional_analysis(self):
+        self.state.recommendations.append("Gather more data")
+        return "Additional analysis required"
+```
+
+This example demonstrates how to:
+
+1. Use Python code for basic data operations
+2. Create and execute Crews as steps in your workflow
+3. Use Flow decorators to manage the sequence of operations
+4. Implement conditional branching based on Crew results
+
 ## Connecting Your Crew to a Model
 
 CrewAI supports using various LLMs through a variety of connection options. By default your agents will use the OpenAI API when querying the model. However, there are several other ways to allow your agents to connect to models. For example, you can configure your agents to use a local model via the Ollama tool.
 
-Please refer to the [Connect CrewAI to LLMs](https://docs.crewai.com/how-to/LLM-Connections/) page for details on configuring you agents' connections to models.

 ## How CrewAI Compares
 
-**CrewAI's Advantage**: CrewAI is built with production in mind. It offers the flexibility of Autogen's conversational agents and the structured process approach of ChatDev, but without the rigidity. CrewAI's processes are designed to be dynamic and adaptable, fitting seamlessly into both development and production workflows.
+**CrewAI's Advantage**: CrewAI combines autonomous agent intelligence with precise workflow control through its unique Crews and Flows architecture. The framework excels at both high-level orchestration and low-level customization, enabling complex, production-grade systems with granular control.
 
-- **Autogen**: While Autogen does good in creating conversational agents capable of working together, it lacks an inherent concept of process. In Autogen, orchestrating agents' interactions requires additional programming, which can become complex and cumbersome as the scale of tasks grows.
+- **LangGraph**: While LangGraph provides a foundation for building agent workflows, its approach requires significant boilerplate code and complex state management patterns. The framework's tight coupling with LangChain can limit flexibility when implementing custom agent behaviors or integrating with external systems.
 
+*P.S. CrewAI demonstrates significant performance advantages over LangGraph, executing 5.76x faster in certain cases like this QA task example ([see comparison](https://github.com/crewAIInc/crewAI-examples/tree/main/Notebooks/CrewAI%20Flows%20%26%20Langgraph/QA%20Agent)) while achieving higher evaluation scores with faster completion times in certain coding tasks, like in this example ([detailed analysis](https://github.com/crewAIInc/crewAI-examples/blob/main/Notebooks/CrewAI%20Flows%20%26%20Langgraph/Coding%20Assistant/coding_assistant_eval.ipynb)).*
+
+- **Autogen**: While Autogen excels at creating conversational agents capable of working together, it lacks an inherent concept of process. In Autogen, orchestrating agents' interactions requires additional programming, which can become complex and cumbersome as the scale of tasks grows.
 - **ChatDev**: ChatDev introduced the idea of processes into the realm of AI agents, but its implementation is quite rigid. Customizations in ChatDev are limited and not geared towards production environments, which can hinder scalability and flexibility in real-world applications.

-## What is an agent?
-
-An agent is an **autonomous unit** programmed to:
-<ul>
-    <li class='leading-3'>Perform tasks</li>
-    <li class='leading-3'>Make decisions</li>
-    <li class='leading-3'>Communicate with other agents</li>
-</ul>
-
-<Tip>
-Think of an agent as a member of a team, with specific skills and a particular job to do. Agents can have different roles like `Researcher`, `Writer`, or `Customer Support`, each contributing to the overall goal of the crew.

-| **Goal**                   | `goal`     | The individual objective that the agent aims to achieve. It guides the agent's decision-making process.                                                                                                                                        |
-| **Backstory**              | `backstory`| Provides context to the agent's role and goal, enriching the interaction and collaboration dynamics.                                                                                                                                           |
-| **LLM** *(optional)*       | `llm`      | Represents the language model that will run the agent. It dynamically fetches the model name from the `OPENAI_MODEL_NAME` environment variable, defaulting to "gpt-4" if not specified.                                                         |
-| **Tools** *(optional)*     | `tools`    | Set of capabilities or functions that the agent can use to perform tasks. Expected to be instances of custom classes compatible with the agent's execution environment. Tools are initialized with a default value of an empty list.             |
-| **Function Calling LLM** *(optional)* | `function_calling_llm`  | Specifies the language model that will handle the tool calling for this agent, overriding the crew function calling LLM if passed. Default is `None`.                                                                                          |
-| **Max Iter** *(optional)*  | `max_iter` | Max Iter is the maximum number of iterations the agent can perform before being forced to give its best answer. Default is `25`.                                                                                                                           |
-| **Max RPM** *(optional)*   | `max_rpm`  | Max RPM is the maximum number of requests per minute the agent can perform to avoid rate limits. It's optional and can be left unspecified, with a default value of `None`.                                                                               |
-| **Max Execution Time** *(optional)*   | `max_execution_time`  | Max Execution Time is the maximum execution time for an agent to execute a task. It's optional and can be left unspecified, with a default value of `None`, meaning no max execution time.                                                                     |
-| **Verbose** *(optional)*   | `verbose`  | Setting this to `True` configures the internal logger to provide detailed execution logs, aiding in debugging and monitoring. Default is `False`.                                                                                              |
-| **Allow Delegation** *(optional)* | `allow_delegation`  | Agents can delegate tasks or questions to one another, ensuring that each task is handled by the most suitable agent. Default is `False`.                                                                                                      |

-## Creating an agent
-
-<Note>
-  **Agent interaction**: Agents can interact with each other using CrewAI's built-in delegation and communication mechanisms. This allows for dynamic task management and problem-solving within the crew.
-</Note>
-
-To create an agent, you would typically initialize an instance of the `Agent` class with the desired properties. Here's a conceptual example including all attributes:
-
-```python Code example
-from crewai import Agent
-
-agent = Agent(
-  role='Data Analyst',
-  goal='Extract actionable insights',
-  backstory="""You're a data analyst at a large company.
-    You're responsible for analyzing data and providing insights
-    to the business.
-    You're currently working on a project to analyze the
-    performance of our marketing campaigns.""",
-  tools=[my_tool1, my_tool2],  # Optional, defaults to an empty list
-  llm=my_llm,  # Optional
-  function_calling_llm=my_llm,  # Optional
-  max_iter=15,  # Optional
-  max_rpm=None, # Optional
-  max_execution_time=None, # Optional
-  verbose=True,  # Optional
-  allow_delegation=False,  # Optional
-  step_callback=my_intermediate_step_callback,  # Optional
-  cache=True,  # Optional
-  system_template=my_system_template,  # Optional
-  prompt_template=my_prompt_template,  # Optional
-  response_template=my_response_template,  # Optional
-  config=my_config,  # Optional
-  crew=my_crew,  # Optional
-  tools_handler=my_tools_handler,  # Optional
-  cache_handler=my_cache_handler,  # Optional
-  callbacks=[callback1, callback2],  # Optional
-  allow_code_execution=True,  # Optional
-  max_retry_limit=2,  # Optional
-  use_system_prompt=True,  # Optional
-  respect_context_window=True,  # Optional
-  code_execution_mode='safe',  # Optional, defaults to 'safe'
-)
-```
-
-## Setting prompt templates
-
-Prompt templates are used to format the prompt for the agent. You can use to update the system, regular and response templates for the agent. Here's an example of how to set prompt templates:
-
-```python Code example
-agent = Agent(
-        role="{topic} specialist",
-        goal="Figure {goal} out",
-        backstory="I am the master of {role}",
-        system_template="""<|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|>
-                        {{ .System }}<|eot_id|>""",
-        prompt_template="""<|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|>
-                        {{ .Prompt }}<|eot_id|>""",
-        response_template="""<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>
-                        {{ .Response }}<|eot_id|>""",
-)
-```
-
-## Bring your third-party agents
-
-Extend your third-party agents like LlamaIndex, Langchain, Autogen or fully custom agents using the the CrewAI's `BaseAgent` class.
-
-<Note>   
-  **BaseAgent** includes attributes and methods required to integrate with your crews to run and delegate tasks to other agents within your own crew.
-</Note>
-
-CrewAI is a universal multi-agent framework that allows for all agents to work together to automate tasks and solve problems.
-
-```python Code example
-from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew
-from custom_agent import CustomAgent # You need to build and extend your own agent logic with the CrewAI BaseAgent class then import it here.
-
-from langchain.agents import load_tools
-
-langchain_tools = load_tools(["google-serper"], llm=llm)
-
-agent1 = CustomAgent(
-    role="agent role",
-    goal="who is {input}?",
-    backstory="agent backstory",
-    verbose=True,
-)
-
-task1 = Task(
-    expected_output="a short biography of {input}",
-    description="a short biography of {input}",
-    agent=agent1,
-)
-
-agent2 = Agent(
-    role="agent role",
-    goal="summarize the short bio for {input} and if needed do more research",
-    backstory="agent backstory",
-    verbose=True,
-)
-
-task2 = Task(
-    description="a tldr summary of the short biography",
-    expected_output="5 bullet point summary of the biography",
-    agent=agent2,
-    context=[task1],
-)
-
-my_crew = Crew(agents=[agent1, agent2], tasks=[task1, task2])
-crew = my_crew.kickoff(inputs={"input": "Mark Twain"})
-```
-
-## Conclusion
-
-Agents are the building blocks of the CrewAI framework. By understanding how to define and interact with agents, 
-you can create sophisticated AI systems that leverage the power of collaborative intelligence. The `code_execution_mode` attribute provides flexibility in how agents execute code, allowing for both secure and direct execution options.

-# Using Knowledge in CrewAI
-
-## Introduction
-
-The Knowledge class in CrewAI provides a powerful way to manage and query knowledge sources for your AI agents. This guide will show you how to implement knowledge management in your CrewAI projects.
-Additionally, we have specific tools for generate knowledge sources for strings, text files, PDF's, and Spreadsheets. You can expand on any source type by extending the `KnowledgeSource` class.
-
-## Basic Implementation
-
-Here's a simple example of how to use the Knowledge class:
-
-```python
-from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew, Process, LLM
-from crewai.knowledge.source.string_knowledge_source import StringKnowledgeSource
-
-# Create a knowledge source
-content = "Users name is John. He is 30 years old and lives in San Francisco."
-string_source = StringKnowledgeSource(
-    content=content, metadata={"preference": "personal"}
-)
-
-
-llm = LLM(model="gpt-4o-mini", temperature=0)
-  # Create an agent with the knowledge store
-agent = Agent(
-    role="About User",
-    goal="You know everything about the user.",
-    backstory="""You are a master at understanding people and their preferences.""",
-    verbose=True,
-    allow_delegation=False,
-    llm=llm,
-)
-task = Task(
-    description="Answer the following questions about the user: {question}",
-    expected_output="An answer to the question.",
-    agent=agent,
-)
-
-crew = Crew(
-    agents=[agent],
-    tasks=[task],
-    verbose=True,
-    process=Process.sequential,
-    knowledge={"sources": [string_source], "metadata": {"preference": "personal"}}, # Enable knowledge by adding the sources here. You can also add more sources to the sources list.
-)
-
-result = crew.kickoff(inputs={"question": "What city does John live in and how old is he?"})
-```
-
-
-## Embedder Configuration
-
-You can also configure the embedder for the knowledge store. This is useful if you want to use a different embedder for the knowledge store than the one used for the agents.
-
-```python
-...
-string_source = StringKnowledgeSource(
-    content="Users name is John. He is 30 years old and lives in San Francisco.",
-    metadata={"preference": "personal"}
-)
-crew = Crew(
-    ...
-    knowledge={
-        "sources": [string_source],
-        "metadata": {"preference": "personal"},
-        "embedder_config": {"provider": "openai", "config": {"model": "text-embedding-3-small"}},
-    },
-)
-```

-# Large Language Models (LLMs) in CrewAI
-
-Large Language Models (LLMs) are the backbone of intelligent agents in the CrewAI framework. This guide will help you understand, configure, and optimize LLM usage for your CrewAI projects.
-
-## Key Concepts
-
-- **LLM**: Large Language Model, the AI powering agent intelligence
-- **Agent**: A CrewAI entity that uses an LLM to perform tasks
-- **Provider**: A service that offers LLM capabilities (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, [more providers](https://docs.litellm.ai/docs/providers))
-
-## Configuring LLMs for Agents
-
-CrewAI offers flexible options for setting up LLMs:
-
-### 1. Default Configuration
-
-By default, CrewAI uses the `gpt-4o-mini` model. It uses environment variables if no LLM is specified:
-- `OPENAI_MODEL_NAME` (defaults to "gpt-4o-mini" if not set)
-- `OPENAI_API_BASE`
-- `OPENAI_API_KEY`
-
-### 2. Updating YAML files
-
-You can update the `agents.yml` file to refer to the LLM you want to use:
-
-```yaml Code
-researcher:
-    role: Research Specialist
-    goal: Conduct comprehensive research and analysis to gather relevant information,
-        synthesize findings, and produce well-documented insights.
-    backstory: A dedicated research professional with years of experience in academic
-        investigation, literature review, and data analysis, known for thorough and
-        methodical approaches to complex research questions.
-    verbose: true
-    llm: openai/gpt-4o
-    # llm: azure/gpt-4o-mini
-    # llm: gemini/gemini-pro
-    # llm: anthropic/claude-3-5-sonnet-20240620
-    # llm: bedrock/anthropic.claude-3-sonnet-20240229-v1:0
-    # llm: mistral/mistral-large-latest
-    # llm: ollama/llama3:70b
-    # llm: groq/llama-3.2-90b-vision-preview
-    # llm: watsonx/meta-llama/llama-3-1-70b-instruct
-    # llm: nvidia_nim/meta/llama3-70b-instruct
-    # llm: sambanova/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct
-    # ...
-```
-
-Keep in mind that you will need to set certain ENV vars depending on the model you are
-using to account for the credentials or set a custom LLM object like described below.
-Here are some of the required ENV vars for some of the LLM integrations:

-## Changing the Base API URL
-
-You can change the base API URL for any LLM provider by setting the `base_url` parameter:
-
-```python Code
-from crewai import LLM
-
-llm = LLM(
-    model="custom-model-name",
-    base_url="https://api.your-provider.com/v1",
-    api_key="your-api-key"
-)
-agent = Agent(llm=llm, ...)
-```
-
-This is particularly useful when working with OpenAI-compatible APIs or when you need to specify a different endpoint for your chosen provider.
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Choose the right model**: Balance capability and cost.
-2. **Optimize prompts**: Clear, concise instructions improve output.
-3. **Manage tokens**: Monitor and limit token usage for efficiency.
-4. **Use appropriate temperature**: Lower for factual tasks, higher for creative ones.
-5. **Implement error handling**: Gracefully manage API errors and rate limits.
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-- **API Errors**: Check your API key, network connection, and rate limits.
-- **Unexpected Outputs**: Refine your prompts and adjust temperature or top_p.
-- **Performance Issues**: Consider using a more powerful model or optimizing your queries.
-- **Timeout Errors**: Increase the `timeout` parameter or optimize your input.

-description: Leveraging memory systems in the CrewAI framework to enhance agent capabilities.
-icon: database
----
-
-## Introduction to Memory Systems in CrewAI
-
-The crewAI framework introduces a sophisticated memory system designed to significantly enhance the capabilities of AI agents. 
-This system comprises `short-term memory`, `long-term memory`, `entity memory`, and `contextual memory`, each serving a unique purpose in aiding agents to remember, 
-reason, and learn from past interactions.
-
-## Memory System Components
-
-| Component            | Description                                                                                                             |
-| :------------------- | :---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| **Short-Term Memory**| Temporarily stores recent interactions and outcomes using `RAG`, enabling agents to recall and utilize information relevant to their current context during the current executions.|
-| **Long-Term Memory** | Preserves valuable insights and learnings from past executions, allowing agents to build and refine their knowledge over time. |
-| **Entity Memory**    | Captures and organizes information about entities (people, places, concepts) encountered during tasks, facilitating deeper understanding and relationship mapping. Uses `RAG` for storing entity information. |
-| **Contextual Memory**| Maintains the context of interactions by combining `ShortTermMemory`, `LongTermMemory`, and `EntityMemory`, aiding in the coherence and relevance of agent responses over a sequence of tasks or a conversation. |
-| **User Memory**      | Stores user-specific information and preferences, enhancing personalization and user experience. |
-
-## How Memory Systems Empower Agents
-
-1. **Contextual Awareness**: With short-term and contextual memory, agents gain the ability to maintain context over a conversation or task sequence, leading to more coherent and relevant responses.
-
-2. **Experience Accumulation**: Long-term memory allows agents to accumulate experiences, learning from past actions to improve future decision-making and problem-solving.
-
-3. **Entity Understanding**: By maintaining entity memory, agents can recognize and remember key entities, enhancing their ability to process and interact with complex information.
-
-## Implementing Memory in Your Crew
-
-When configuring a crew, you can enable and customize each memory component to suit the crew's objectives and the nature of tasks it will perform.
-By default, the memory system is disabled, and you can ensure it is active by setting `memory=True` in the crew configuration. 
-The memory will use OpenAI embeddings by default, but you can change it by setting `embedder` to a different model. 
-It's also possible to initialize the memory instance with your own instance.
-
-The 'embedder' only applies to **Short-Term Memory** which uses Chroma for RAG.
-The **Long-Term Memory** uses SQLite3 to store task results. Currently, there is no way to override these storage implementations.
-The data storage files are saved into a platform-specific location found using the appdirs package,
-and the name of the project can be overridden using the **CREWAI_STORAGE_DIR** environment variable.
-
-### Example: Configuring Memory for a Crew
-
-```python Code
-from crewai import Crew, Agent, Task, Process
-
-# Assemble your crew with memory capabilities
-my_crew = Crew(
-    agents=[...],
-    tasks=[...],
-    process=Process.sequential,
-    memory=True,
-    verbose=True
-)
-```
-
-### Example: Use Custom Memory Instances e.g FAISS as the VectorDB
-
-```python Code
-from crewai import Crew, Agent, Task, Process
-
-# Assemble your crew with memory capabilities
-my_crew = Crew(
-    agents=[...],
-    tasks=[...],
-    process="Process.sequential",
-    memory=True,
-    long_term_memory=EnhanceLongTermMemory(
-        storage=LTMSQLiteStorage(
-            db_path="/my_data_dir/my_crew1/long_term_memory_storage.db"
-        )
-    ),
-    short_term_memory=EnhanceShortTermMemory(
-        storage=CustomRAGStorage(
-            crew_name="my_crew",
-            storage_type="short_term",
-            data_dir="//my_data_dir",
-            model=embedder["model"],
-            dimension=embedder["dimension"],
-        ),
-    ),
-    entity_memory=EnhanceEntityMemory(
-        storage=CustomRAGStorage(
-            crew_name="my_crew",
-            storage_type="entities",
-            data_dir="//my_data_dir",
-            model=embedder["model"],
-            dimension=embedder["dimension"],
-        ),
-    ),
-    verbose=True,
-)
-```

-## Integrating Mem0 for Enhanced User Memory
-
-[Mem0](https://mem0.ai/) is a self-improving memory layer for LLM applications, enabling personalized AI experiences. 
-
-To include user-specific memory you can get your API key [here](https://app.mem0.ai/dashboard/api-keys) and refer the [docs](https://docs.mem0.ai/platform/quickstart#4-1-create-memories) for adding user preferences.
-
-
-```python Code
-import os
-from crewai import Crew, Process
-from mem0 import MemoryClient
-
-# Set environment variables for Mem0
-os.environ["MEM0_API_KEY"] = "m0-xx"
-
-# Step 1: Record preferences based on past conversation or user input
-client = MemoryClient()
-messages = [
-    {"role": "user", "content": "Hi there! I'm planning a vacation and could use some advice."},
-    {"role": "assistant", "content": "Hello! I'd be happy to help with your vacation planning. What kind of destination do you prefer?"},
-    {"role": "user", "content": "I am more of a beach person than a mountain person."},
-    {"role": "assistant", "content": "That's interesting. Do you like hotels or Airbnb?"},
-    {"role": "user", "content": "I like Airbnb more."},
-]
-client.add(messages, user_id="john")
-
-# Step 2: Create a Crew with User Memory
-
-crew = Crew(
-    agents=[...],
-    tasks=[...],
-    verbose=True,
-    process=Process.sequential,
-    memory=True,
-    memory_config={

-## Overview of a Task
-
-In the CrewAI framework, a `Task` is a specific assignment completed by an `Agent`. 
-
-They provide all necessary details for execution, such as a description, the agent responsible, required tools, and more, facilitating a wide range of action complexities.
-
-
-Tasks within CrewAI can be collaborative, requiring multiple agents to work together. This is managed through the task properties and orchestrated by the Crew's process, enhancing teamwork and efficiency.

-
-## Creating a Task
-
-Creating a task involves defining its scope, responsible agent, and any additional attributes for flexibility:
-
-```python Code
-from crewai import Task
-
-task = Task(
-    description='Find and summarize the latest and most relevant news on AI',
-    agent=sales_agent,
-    expected_output='A bullet list summary of the top 5 most important AI news',
-)
-```
-
-<Tip>
-  Directly specify an `agent` for assignment or let the `hierarchical` CrewAI's process decide based on roles, availability, etc.
-</Tip>
-
-## Task Output
-
-The output of a task in CrewAI framework is encapsulated within the `TaskOutput` class. This class provides a structured way to access results of a task, including various formats such as raw output, JSON, and Pydantic models.
-
-By default, the `TaskOutput` will only include the `raw` output. A `TaskOutput` will only include the `pydantic` or `json_dict` output if the original `Task` object was configured with `output_pydantic` or `output_json`, respectively.
-
-### Task Output Attributes
-
-| Attribute         | Parameters      | Type                       | Description                                                                                        |

-| **to_dict**     | Converts the JSON and Pydantic outputs to a dictionary.                                           |
-| **str**         | Returns the string representation of the task output, prioritizing Pydantic, then JSON, then raw. |
-
-### Accessing Task Outputs
-
-Once a task has been executed, its output can be accessed through the `output` attribute of the `Task` object. The `TaskOutput` class provides various ways to interact with and present this output.
-
-#### Example
-
-```python Code
-# Example task
-task = Task(
-    description='Find and summarize the latest AI news',
-    expected_output='A bullet list summary of the top 5 most important AI news',
-    agent=research_agent,
-    tools=[search_tool]
-)
-
-# Execute the crew
-crew = Crew(
-    agents=[research_agent],
-    tasks=[task],
-    verbose=True
-)
-
-result = crew.kickoff()
-
-# Accessing the task output
-task_output = task.output
-
-print(f"Task Description: {task_output.description}")
-print(f"Task Summary: {task_output.summary}")
-print(f"Raw Output: {task_output.raw}")
-if task_output.json_dict:
-    print(f"JSON Output: {json.dumps(task_output.json_dict, indent=2)}")
-if task_output.pydantic:
-    print(f"Pydantic Output: {task_output.pydantic}")
-```
-
-## Integrating Tools with Tasks
-
-Leverage tools from the [CrewAI Toolkit](https://github.com/joaomdmoura/crewai-tools) and [LangChain Tools](https://python.langchain.com/docs/integrations/tools) for enhanced task performance and agent interaction.
-
-## Creating a Task with Tools
-
-```python Code
-import os
-os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "Your Key"
-os.environ["SERPER_API_KEY"] = "Your Key" # serper.dev API key
-
-from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew
-from crewai_tools import SerperDevTool
-
-research_agent = Agent(
-  role='Researcher',
-  goal='Find and summarize the latest AI news',
-  backstory="""You're a researcher at a large company.
-  You're responsible for analyzing data and providing insights
-  to the business.""",
-  verbose=True
-)
-
-# to perform a semantic search for a specified query from a text's content across the internet
-search_tool = SerperDevTool()
-
-task = Task(
-  description='Find and summarize the latest AI news',
-  expected_output='A bullet list summary of the top 5 most important AI news',
-  agent=research_agent,
-  tools=[search_tool]
-)
-
-crew = Crew(
-    agents=[research_agent],
-    tasks=[task],
-    verbose=True
-)
-
-result = crew.kickoff()
-print(result)
-```
-
-This demonstrates how tasks with specific tools can override an agent's default set for tailored task execution.
-
-## Referring to Other Tasks
-
-In CrewAI, the output of one task is automatically relayed into the next one, but you can specifically define what tasks' output, including multiple, should be used as context for another task.
-
-This is useful when you have a task that depends on the output of another task that is not performed immediately after it. This is done through the `context` attribute of the task:
-
-```python Code
-# ...
-
-research_ai_task = Task(
-    description='Find and summarize the latest AI news',
-    expected_output='A bullet list summary of the top 5 most important AI news',
-    async_execution=True,
-    agent=research_agent,
-    tools=[search_tool]
-)
-
-research_ops_task = Task(
-    description='Find and summarize the latest AI Ops news',
-    expected_output='A bullet list summary of the top 5 most important AI Ops news',
-    async_execution=True,
-    agent=research_agent,
-    tools=[search_tool]
-)
-
-write_blog_task = Task(
-    description="Write a full blog post about the importance of AI and its latest news",
-    expected_output='Full blog post that is 4 paragraphs long',
-    agent=writer_agent,
-    context=[research_ai_task, research_ops_task]
-)
-
-#...
-```
-
-## Asynchronous Execution
-
-You can define a task to be executed asynchronously. This means that the crew will not wait for it to be completed to continue with the next task. This is useful for tasks that take a long time to be completed, or that are not crucial for the next tasks to be performed.
-
-You can then use the `context` attribute to define in a future task that it should wait for the output of the asynchronous task to be completed.
-
-```python Code
-#...
-
-list_ideas = Task(
-    description="List of 5 interesting ideas to explore for an article about AI.",
-    expected_output="Bullet point list of 5 ideas for an article.",
-    agent=researcher,
-    async_execution=True # Will be executed asynchronously
-)
-
-list_important_history = Task(
-    description="Research the history of AI and give me the 5 most important events.",
-    expected_output="Bullet point list of 5 important events.",
-    agent=researcher,
-    async_execution=True # Will be executed asynchronously
-)
-
-write_article = Task(
-    description="Write an article about AI, its history, and interesting ideas.",
-    expected_output="A 4 paragraph article about AI.",
-    agent=writer,
-    context=[list_ideas, list_important_history] # Will wait for the output of the two tasks to be completed
-)
-
-#...
-```
-
-## Callback Mechanism
-
-The callback function is executed after the task is completed, allowing for actions or notifications to be triggered based on the task's outcome.
-
-```python Code
-# ...
-
-def callback_function(output: TaskOutput):
-    # Do something after the task is completed
-    # Example: Send an email to the manager
-    print(f"""
-        Task completed!
-        Task: {output.description}
-        Output: {output.raw}
-    """)
-
-research_task = Task(
-    description='Find and summarize the latest AI news',
-    expected_output='A bullet list summary of the top 5 most important AI news',
-    agent=research_agent,
-    tools=[search_tool],
-    callback=callback_function
-)
-
-#...
-```
-
-## Accessing a Specific Task Output
-
-Once a crew finishes running, you can access the output of a specific task by using the `output` attribute of the task object:
-
-```python Code
-# ...
-task1 = Task(
-    description='Find and summarize the latest AI news',
-    expected_output='A bullet list summary of the top 5 most important AI news',
-    agent=research_agent,
-    tools=[search_tool]
-)
-
-#...
-
-crew = Crew(
-    agents=[research_agent],
-    tasks=[task1, task2, task3],
-    verbose=True
-)
-
-result = crew.kickoff()
-
-# Returns a TaskOutput object with the description and results of the task
-print(f"""
-    Task completed!
-    Task: {task1.output.description}
-    Output: {task1.output.raw}
-""")
-```
-
-## Tool Override Mechanism
-
-Specifying tools in a task allows for dynamic adaptation of agent capabilities, emphasizing CrewAI's flexibility.
-
-## Error Handling and Validation Mechanisms
-
-While creating and executing tasks, certain validation mechanisms are in place to ensure the robustness and reliability of task attributes. These include but are not limited to:
-
-- Ensuring only one output type is set per task to maintain clear output expectations.
-- Preventing the manual assignment of the `id` attribute to uphold the integrity of the unique identifier system.
-
-These validations help in maintaining the consistency and reliability of task executions within the crewAI framework.
-
-## Creating Directories when Saving Files
-
-You can now specify if a task should create directories when saving its output to a file. This is particularly useful for organizing outputs and ensuring that file paths are correctly structured.
-
-```python Code
-# ...
-
-save_output_task = Task(
-    description='Save the summarized AI news to a file',
-    expected_output='File saved successfully',
-    agent=research_agent,
-    tools=[file_save_tool],
-    output_file='outputs/ai_news_summary.txt',
-    create_directory=True
-)
-
-#...
-```
-
-## Conclusion
-
-Tasks are the driving force behind the actions of agents in CrewAI. 
-By properly defining tasks and their outcomes, you set the stage for your AI agents to work effectively, either independently or as a collaborative unit. 
-Equipping tasks with appropriate tools, understanding the execution process, and following robust validation practices are crucial for maximizing CrewAI's potential, 
-ensuring agents are effectively prepared for their assignments and that tasks are executed as intended.

-
-## Introduction
-
-The training feature in CrewAI allows you to train your AI agents using the command-line interface (CLI). 
-By running the command `crewai train -n <n_iterations>`, you can specify the number of iterations for the training process.
-
-During training, CrewAI utilizes techniques to optimize the performance of your agents along with human feedback. 
-This helps the agents improve their understanding, decision-making, and problem-solving abilities.
-
-### Training Your Crew Using the CLI
-
-To use the training feature, follow these steps:
-
-1. Open your terminal or command prompt.
-2. Navigate to the directory where your CrewAI project is located.
-3. Run the following command:
-
-```shell
-crewai train -n <n_iterations> <filename> (optional)
-```
-<Tip>
-  Replace `<n_iterations>` with the desired number of training iterations and `<filename>` with the appropriate filename ending with `.pkl`.
-</Tip>
-
-### Training Your Crew Programmatically
-
-To train your crew programmatically, use the following steps:
-
-1. Define the number of iterations for training.
-2. Specify the input parameters for the training process.
-3. Execute the training command within a try-except block to handle potential errors.
-
-```python Code
-n_iterations = 2
-inputs = {"topic": "CrewAI Training"}
-filename = "your_model.pkl"
-
-try:
-    YourCrewName_Crew().crew().train(
-      n_iterations=n_iterations, 
-      inputs=inputs, 
-      filename=filename
-    )
-
-except Exception as e:
-    raise Exception(f"An error occurred while training the crew: {e}")
-```
-
-### Key Points to Note
-
-- **Positive Integer Requirement:** Ensure that the number of iterations (`n_iterations`) is a positive integer. The code will raise a `ValueError` if this condition is not met.
-- **Filename Requirement:** Ensure that the filename ends with `.pkl`. The code will raise a `ValueError` if this condition is not met.
-- **Error Handling:** The code handles subprocess errors and unexpected exceptions, providing error messages to the user.
-
-It is important to note that the training process may take some time, depending on the complexity of your agents and will also require your feedback on each iteration.
-
-Once the training is complete, your agents will be equipped with enhanced capabilities and knowledge, ready to tackle complex tasks and provide more consistent and valuable insights.
-
-Remember to regularly update and retrain your agents to ensure they stay up-to-date with the latest information and advancements in the field.
-
-Happy training with CrewAI! 🚀

+
+# CrewAI AMP API
+
+Welcome to the CrewAI AMP API reference. This API allows you to programmatically interact with your deployed crews, enabling integration with your applications, workflows, and services.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+<Steps>
+  <Step title="Get Your API Credentials">
+    Navigate to your crew's detail page in the CrewAI AMP dashboard and copy your Bearer Token from the Status tab.
+  </Step>
+
+  <Step title="Discover Required Inputs">
+    Use the `GET /inputs` endpoint to see what parameters your crew expects.
+  </Step>
+
+  <Step title="Start a Crew Execution">
+    Call `POST /kickoff` with your inputs to start the crew execution and receive a `kickoff_id`.
+  </Step>
+
+  <Step title="Monitor Progress">
+    Use `GET /status/{kickoff_id}` to check execution status and retrieve results.
+  </Step>
+</Steps>
+
+## Authentication
+
+All API requests require authentication using a Bearer token. Include your token in the `Authorization` header:
+
+```bash
+curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_CREW_TOKEN" \
+  https://your-crew-url.crewai.com/inputs
+```
+
+### Token Types
+
+| Token Type | Scope | Use Case |
+|:-----------|:--------|:----------|
+| **Bearer Token** | Organization-level access | Full crew operations, ideal for server-to-server integration |
+| **User Bearer Token** | User-scoped access | Limited permissions, suitable for user-specific operations |
+
+<Tip>
+You can find both token types in the Status tab of your crew's detail page in the CrewAI AMP dashboard.
+</Tip>
+
+## Base URL
+
+Each deployed crew has its own unique API endpoint:
+
+```
+https://your-crew-name.crewai.com
+```
+
+Replace `your-crew-name` with your actual crew's URL from the dashboard.
+
+## Typical Workflow
+
+1. **Discovery**: Call `GET /inputs` to understand what your crew needs
+2. **Execution**: Submit inputs via `POST /kickoff` to start processing
+3. **Monitoring**: Poll `GET /status/{kickoff_id}` until completion
+4. **Results**: Extract the final output from the completed response
+
+## Error Handling
+
+The API uses standard HTTP status codes:
+
+| Code | Meaning |
+|------|:--------|
+| `200` | Success |
+| `400` | Bad Request - Invalid input format |
+| `401` | Unauthorized - Invalid bearer token |
+| `404` | Not Found - Resource doesn't exist |
+| `422` | Validation Error - Missing required inputs |
+| `500` | Server Error - Contact support |
+
+## Interactive Testing
+
+<Info>
+**Why no "Send" button?** Since each CrewAI AMP user has their own unique crew URL, we use **reference mode** instead of an interactive playground to avoid confusion. This shows you exactly what the requests should look like without non-functional send buttons.
+</Info>
+
+Each endpoint page shows you:
+- ✅ **Exact request format** with all parameters
+- ✅ **Response examples** for success and error cases
+- ✅ **Code samples** in multiple languages (cURL, Python, JavaScript, etc.)
+- ✅ **Authentication examples** with proper Bearer token format

+
+## Overview of an Agent
+
+In the CrewAI framework, an `Agent` is an autonomous unit that can:
+- Perform specific tasks
+- Make decisions based on its role and goal
+- Use tools to accomplish objectives
+- Communicate and collaborate with other agents
+- Maintain memory of interactions
+- Delegate tasks when allowed
+
+<Tip>
+Think of an agent as a specialized team member with specific skills, expertise, and responsibilities. For example, a `Researcher` agent might excel at gathering and analyzing information, while a `Writer` agent might be better at creating content.
+</Tip>
+
+<Note type="info" title="Enterprise Enhancement: Visual Agent Builder">
+CrewAI AMP includes a Visual Agent Builder that simplifies agent creation and configuration without writing code. Design your agents visually and test them in real-time.
+
+![Visual Agent Builder Screenshot](/images/enterprise/crew-studio-interface.png)
+
+The Visual Agent Builder enables:
+- Intuitive agent configuration with form-based interfaces
+- Real-time testing and validation
+- Template library with pre-configured agent types
+- Easy customization of agent attributes and behaviors

+
+## Creating Agents
+
+There are two ways to create agents in CrewAI: using **YAML configuration (recommended)** or defining them **directly in code**.
+
+### YAML Configuration (Recommended)
+
+Using YAML configuration provides a cleaner, more maintainable way to define agents. We strongly recommend using this approach in your CrewAI projects.
+
+After creating your CrewAI project as outlined in the [Installation](/en/installation) section, navigate to the `src/latest_ai_development/config/agents.yaml` file and modify the template to match your requirements.
+
+<Note>
+Variables in your YAML files (like `{topic}`) will be replaced with values from your inputs when running the crew:
+```python Code
+crew.kickoff(inputs={'topic': 'AI Agents'})
+```
+</Note>
+
+Here's an example of how to configure agents using YAML:
+
+```yaml agents.yaml
+# src/latest_ai_development/config/agents.yaml
+researcher:
+  role: >
+    {topic} Senior Data Researcher
+  goal: >
+    Uncover cutting-edge developments in {topic}
+  backstory: >
+    You're a seasoned researcher with a knack for uncovering the latest
+    developments in {topic}. Known for your ability to find the most relevant
+    information and present it in a clear and concise manner.
+
+reporting_analyst:
+  role: >
+    {topic} Reporting Analyst
+  goal: >
+    Create detailed reports based on {topic} data analysis and research findings
+  backstory: >
+    You're a meticulous analyst with a keen eye for detail. You're known for
+    your ability to turn complex data into clear and concise reports, making
+    it easy for others to understand and act on the information you provide.
+```
+
+To use this YAML configuration in your code, create a crew class that inherits from `CrewBase`:
+
+```python Code
+# src/latest_ai_development/crew.py
+from crewai import Agent, Crew, Process
+from crewai.project import CrewBase, agent, crew
+from crewai_tools import SerperDevTool
+
+@CrewBase
+class LatestAiDevelopmentCrew():
+  """LatestAiDevelopment crew"""
+
+  agents_config = "config/agents.yaml"
+
+  @agent
+  def researcher(self) -> Agent:
+    return Agent(
+      config=self.agents_config['researcher'], # type: ignore[index]
+      verbose=True,
+      tools=[SerperDevTool()]
+    )
+
+  @agent
+  def reporting_analyst(self) -> Agent:
+    return Agent(
+      config=self.agents_config['reporting_analyst'], # type: ignore[index]
+      verbose=True
+    )
+```
+
+<Note>
+The names you use in your YAML files (`agents.yaml`) should match the method names in your Python code.
+</Note>
+
+### Direct Code Definition
+
+You can create agents directly in code by instantiating the `Agent` class. Here's a comprehensive example showing all available parameters:
+
+```python Code
+from crewai import Agent
+from crewai_tools import SerperDevTool
+
+# Create an agent with all available parameters
+agent = Agent(
+    role="Senior Data Scientist",
+    goal="Analyze and interpret complex datasets to provide actionable insights",
+    backstory="With over 10 years of experience in data science and machine learning, "
+              "you excel at finding patterns in complex datasets.",
+    llm="gpt-4",  # Default: OPENAI_MODEL_NAME or "gpt-4"
+    function_calling_llm=None,  # Optional: Separate LLM for tool calling
+    verbose=False,  # Default: False
+    allow_delegation=False,  # Default: False
+    max_iter=20,  # Default: 20 iterations
+    max_rpm=None,  # Optional: Rate limit for API calls
+    max_execution_time=None,  # Optional: Maximum execution time in seconds
+    max_retry_limit=2,  # Default: 2 retries on error
+    allow_code_execution=False,  # Default: False
+    code_execution_mode="safe",  # Default: "safe" (options: "safe", "unsafe")
+    respect_context_window=True,  # Default: True
+    use_system_prompt=True,  # Default: True
+    multimodal=False,  # Default: False
+    inject_date=False,  # Default: False
+    date_format="%Y-%m-%d",  # Default: ISO format
+    reasoning=False,  # Default: False
+    max_reasoning_attempts=None,  # Default: None
+    tools=[SerperDevTool()],  # Optional: List of tools
+    knowledge_sources=None,  # Optional: List of knowledge sources
+    embedder=None,  # Optional: Custom embedder configuration
+    system_template=None,  # Optional: Custom system prompt template
+    prompt_template=None,  # Optional: Custom prompt template
+    response_template=None,  # Optional: Custom response template

+</Note>
+
+<Note>
+When using custom templates, you can use variables like `{role}`, `{goal}`, and `{backstory}` in your templates. These will be automatically populated during execution.
+</Note>
+
+## Agent Tools
+
+Agents can be equipped with various tools to enhance their capabilities. CrewAI supports tools from:
+- [CrewAI Toolkit](https://github.com/joaomdmoura/crewai-tools)
+- [LangChain Tools](https://python.langchain.com/docs/integrations/tools)
+
+Here's how to add tools to an agent:
+
+```python Code
+from crewai import Agent
+from crewai_tools import SerperDevTool, WikipediaTools
+
+# Create tools
+search_tool = SerperDevTool()
+wiki_tool = WikipediaTools()
+
+# Add tools to agent
+researcher = Agent(
+    role="AI Technology Researcher",
+    goal="Research the latest AI developments",
+    tools=[search_tool, wiki_tool],
+    verbose=True
+)
+```
+
+## Agent Memory and Context
+
+Agents can maintain memory of their interactions and use context from previous tasks. This is particularly useful for complex workflows where information needs to be retained across multiple tasks.
+
+```python Code
+from crewai import Agent
+
+analyst = Agent(
+    role="Data Analyst",
+    goal="Analyze and remember complex data patterns",
+    memory=True,  # Enable memory
+    verbose=True
+)
+```
+
+<Note>
+When `memory` is enabled, the agent will maintain context across multiple interactions, improving its ability to handle complex, multi-step tasks.
+</Note>
+
+## Context Window Management
+
+CrewAI includes sophisticated automatic context window management to handle situations where conversations exceed the language model's token limits. This powerful feature is controlled by the `respect_context_window` parameter.
+
+### How Context Window Management Works
+
+When an agent's conversation history grows too large for the LLM's context window, CrewAI automatically detects this situation and can either:
+
+1. **Automatically summarize content** (when `respect_context_window=True`)
+2. **Stop execution with an error** (when `respect_context_window=False`)
+
+### Automatic Context Handling (`respect_context_window=True`)
+
+This is the **default and recommended setting** for most use cases. When enabled, CrewAI will:
+
+```python Code
+# Agent with automatic context management (default)
+smart_agent = Agent(
+    role="Research Analyst",
+    goal="Analyze large documents and datasets",
+    backstory="Expert at processing extensive information",
+    respect_context_window=True,  # 🔑 Default: auto-handle context limits
+    verbose=True
+)
+```
+
+**What happens when context limits are exceeded:**
+- ⚠️ **Warning message**: `"Context length exceeded. Summarizing content to fit the model context window."`
+- 🔄 **Automatic summarization**: CrewAI intelligently summarizes the conversation history
+- ✅ **Continued execution**: Task execution continues seamlessly with the summarized context
+- 📝 **Preserved information**: Key information is retained while reducing token count
+
+### Strict Context Limits (`respect_context_window=False`)
+
+When you need precise control and prefer execution to stop rather than lose any information:
+
+```python Code
+# Agent with strict context limits
+strict_agent = Agent(
+    role="Legal Document Reviewer",
+    goal="Provide precise legal analysis without information loss",
+    backstory="Legal expert requiring complete context for accurate analysis",
+    respect_context_window=False,  # ❌ Stop execution on context limit
+    verbose=True
+)
+```
+
+**What happens when context limits are exceeded:**
+- ❌ **Error message**: `"Context length exceeded. Consider using smaller text or RAG tools from crewai_tools."`
+- 🛑 **Execution stops**: Task execution halts immediately
+- 🔧 **Manual intervention required**: You need to modify your approach
+
+### Choosing the Right Setting
+
+#### Use `respect_context_window=True` (Default) when:
+- **Processing large documents** that might exceed context limits
+- **Long-running conversations** where some summarization is acceptable
+- **Research tasks** where general context is more important than exact details
+- **Prototyping and development** where you want robust execution
+
+```python Code
+# Perfect for document processing
+document_processor = Agent(
+    role="Document Analyst",
+    goal="Extract insights from large research papers",
+    backstory="Expert at analyzing extensive documentation",
+    respect_context_window=True,  # Handle large documents gracefully
+    max_iter=50,  # Allow more iterations for complex analysis
+    verbose=True
+)
+```
+
+#### Use `respect_context_window=False` when:
+- **Precision is critical** and information loss is unacceptable
+- **Legal or medical tasks** requiring complete context
+- **Code review** where missing details could introduce bugs
+- **Financial analysis** where accuracy is paramount
+
+```python Code
+# Perfect for precision tasks
+precision_agent = Agent(
+    role="Code Security Auditor",
+    goal="Identify security vulnerabilities in code",
+    backstory="Security expert requiring complete code context",
+    respect_context_window=False,  # Prefer failure over incomplete analysis
+    max_retry_limit=1,  # Fail fast on context issues
+    verbose=True
+)
+```
+
+### Alternative Approaches for Large Data
+
+When dealing with very large datasets, consider these strategies:
+
+#### 1. Use RAG Tools
+```python Code
+from crewai_tools import RagTool
+
+# Create RAG tool for large document processing
+rag_tool = RagTool()
+
+rag_agent = Agent(
+    role="Research Assistant",
+    goal="Query large knowledge bases efficiently",
+    backstory="Expert at using RAG tools for information retrieval",
+    tools=[rag_tool],  # Use RAG instead of large context windows
+    respect_context_window=True,
+    verbose=True
+)
+```
+
+#### 2. Use Knowledge Sources
+```python Code
+# Use knowledge sources instead of large prompts
+knowledge_agent = Agent(
+    role="Knowledge Expert",
+    goal="Answer questions using curated knowledge",
+    backstory="Expert at leveraging structured knowledge sources",
+    knowledge_sources=[your_knowledge_sources],  # Pre-processed knowledge
+    respect_context_window=True,
+    verbose=True
+)
+```
+
+### Context Window Best Practices
+
+1. **Monitor Context Usage**: Enable `verbose=True` to see context management in action
+2. **Design for Efficiency**: Structure tasks to minimize context accumulation
+3. **Use Appropriate Models**: Choose LLMs with context windows suitable for your tasks
+4. **Test Both Settings**: Try both `True` and `False` to see which works better for your use case
+5. **Combine with RAG**: Use RAG tools for very large datasets instead of relying solely on context windows
+
+### Troubleshooting Context Issues
+
+**If you're getting context limit errors:**
+```python Code
+# Quick fix: Enable automatic handling
+agent.respect_context_window = True
+
+# Better solution: Use RAG tools for large data
+from crewai_tools import RagTool
+agent.tools = [RagTool()]
+
+# Alternative: Break tasks into smaller pieces
+# Or use knowledge sources instead of large prompts
+```
+
+**If automatic summarization loses important information:**
+```python Code
+# Disable auto-summarization and use RAG instead
+agent = Agent(
+    role="Detailed Analyst",
+    goal="Maintain complete information accuracy",
+    backstory="Expert requiring full context",
+    respect_context_window=False,  # No summarization
+    tools=[RagTool()],  # Use RAG for large data
+    verbose=True
+)
+```
+
+<Note>
+The context window management feature works automatically in the background. You don't need to call any special functions - just set `respect_context_window` to your preferred behavior and CrewAI handles the rest!
+</Note>
+
+## Direct Agent Interaction with `kickoff()`
+
+Agents can be used directly without going through a task or crew workflow using the `kickoff()` method. This provides a simpler way to interact with an agent when you don't need the full crew orchestration capabilities.
+
+### How `kickoff()` Works
+
+The `kickoff()` method allows you to send messages directly to an agent and get a response, similar to how you would interact with an LLM but with all the agent's capabilities (tools, reasoning, etc.).
+
+```python Code
+from crewai import Agent
+from crewai_tools import SerperDevTool
+
+# Create an agent
+researcher = Agent(
+    role="AI Technology Researcher",
+    goal="Research the latest AI developments",
+    tools=[SerperDevTool()],
+    verbose=True
+)
+
+# Use kickoff() to interact directly with the agent
+result = researcher.kickoff("What are the latest developments in language models?")
+
+# Access the raw response
+print(result.raw)
+```
+
+### Parameters and Return Values
+
+| Parameter         | Type                                | Description                                                               |
+| :---------------- | :---------------------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `messages`        | `Union[str, List[Dict[str, str]]]`  | Either a string query or a list of message dictionaries with role/content |
+| `response_format` | `Optional[Type[Any]]`               | Optional Pydantic model for structured output                             |
+
+The method returns a `LiteAgentOutput` object with the following properties:
+
+- `raw`: String containing the raw output text
+- `pydantic`: Parsed Pydantic model (if a `response_format` was provided)
+- `agent_role`: Role of the agent that produced the output
+- `usage_metrics`: Token usage metrics for the execution
+
+### Structured Output
+
+You can get structured output by providing a Pydantic model as the `response_format`:
+
+```python Code
+from pydantic import BaseModel
+from typing import List
+
+class ResearchFindings(BaseModel):
+    main_points: List[str]
+    key_technologies: List[str]
+    future_predictions: str
+
+# Get structured output
+result = researcher.kickoff(
+    "Summarize the latest developments in AI for 2025",
+    response_format=ResearchFindings
+)
+
+# Access structured data
+print(result.pydantic.main_points)
+print(result.pydantic.future_predictions)
+```
+
+### Multiple Messages
+
+You can also provide a conversation history as a list of message dictionaries:
+
+```python Code
+messages = [
+    {"role": "user", "content": "I need information about large language models"},
+    {"role": "assistant", "content": "I'd be happy to help with that! What specifically would you like to know?"},
+    {"role": "user", "content": "What are the latest developments in 2025?"}
+]
+
+result = researcher.kickoff(messages)
+```
+
+### Async Support
+
+An asynchronous version is available via `kickoff_async()` with the same parameters:
+
+```python Code
+import asyncio
+
+async def main():
+    result = await researcher.kickoff_async("What are the latest developments in AI?")
+    print(result.raw)
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+<Note>
+The `kickoff()` method uses a `LiteAgent` internally, which provides a simpler execution flow while preserving all of the agent's configuration (role, goal, backstory, tools, etc.).
+</Note>
+
+## Important Considerations and Best Practices
+
+### Security and Code Execution
+- When using `allow_code_execution`, be cautious with user input and always validate it
+- Use `code_execution_mode: "safe"` (Docker) in production environments
+- Consider setting appropriate `max_execution_time` limits to prevent infinite loops
+
+### Performance Optimization
+- Use `respect_context_window: true` to prevent token limit issues
+- Set appropriate `max_rpm` to avoid rate limiting
+- Enable `cache: true` to improve performance for repetitive tasks
+- Adjust `max_iter` and `max_retry_limit` based on task complexity
+
+### Memory and Context Management
+- Leverage `knowledge_sources` for domain-specific information
+- Configure `embedder` when using custom embedding models
+- Use custom templates (`system_template`, `prompt_template`, `response_template`) for fine-grained control over agent behavior
+
+### Advanced Features
+- Enable `reasoning: true` for agents that need to plan and reflect before executing complex tasks
+- Set appropriate `max_reasoning_attempts` to control planning iterations (None for unlimited attempts)
+- Use `inject_date: true` to provide agents with current date awareness for time-sensitive tasks
+- Customize the date format with `date_format` using standard Python datetime format codes
+- Enable `multimodal: true` for agents that need to process both text and visual content
+
+### Agent Collaboration
+- Enable `allow_delegation: true` when agents need to work together
+- Use `step_callback` to monitor and log agent interactions
+- Consider using different LLMs for different purposes:
+  - Main `llm` for complex reasoning
+  - `function_calling_llm` for efficient tool usage
+
+### Date Awareness and Reasoning
+- Use `inject_date: true` to provide agents with current date awareness for time-sensitive tasks
+- Customize the date format with `date_format` using standard Python datetime format codes
+- Valid format codes include: %Y (year), %m (month), %d (day), %B (full month name), etc.
+- Invalid date formats will be logged as warnings and will not modify the task description
+- Enable `reasoning: true` for complex tasks that benefit from upfront planning and reflection
+
+### Model Compatibility
+- Set `use_system_prompt: false` for older models that don't support system messages
+- Ensure your chosen `llm` supports the features you need (like function calling)
+
+## Troubleshooting Common Issues
+
+1. **Rate Limiting**: If you're hitting API rate limits:
+   - Implement appropriate `max_rpm`
+   - Use caching for repetitive operations
+   - Consider batching requests
+
+2. **Context Window Errors**: If you're exceeding context limits:
+   - Enable `respect_context_window`
+   - Use more efficient prompts
+   - Clear agent memory periodically
+
+3. **Code Execution Issues**: If code execution fails:
+   - Verify Docker is installed for safe mode
+   - Check execution permissions
+   - Review code sandbox settings
+
+4. **Memory Issues**: If agent responses seem inconsistent:
+   - Check knowledge source configuration
+   - Review conversation history management
+
+Remember that agents are most effective when configured according to their specific use case. Take time to understand your requirements and adjust these parameters accordingly.
