Tony Kipkemboi dfc4255f2f docs: Add transparency features for prompts and memory systems (#2902)
* docs: Fix major memory system documentation issues - Remove misleading deprecation warnings, fix confusing comments, clearly separate three memory approaches, provide accurate examples that match implementation

* fix: Correct broken image paths in README - Update crewai_logo.png and asset.png paths to point to docs/images/ directory instead of docs/ directly

* docs: Add system prompt transparency and customization guide - Add 'Understanding Default System Instructions' section to address black-box concerns - Document what CrewAI automatically injects into prompts - Provide code examples to inspect complete system prompts - Show 3 methods to override default instructions - Include observability integration examples with Langfuse - Add best practices for production prompt management

* docs: Fix implementation accuracy issues in memory documentation - Fix Ollama embedding URL parameter and remove unsupported Cohere input_type parameter

* docs: Reference observability docs instead of showing specific tool examples

* docs: Reorganize knowledge documentation for better developer experience - Move quickstart examples right after overview for immediate hands-on experience - Create logical learning progression: basics → configuration → advanced → troubleshooting - Add comprehensive agent vs crew knowledge guide with working examples - Consolidate debugging and troubleshooting in dedicated section - Organize best practices by topic in accordion format - Improve content flow from simple concepts to advanced features - Ensure all examples are grounded in actual codebase implementation

* docs: enhance custom LLM documentation with comprehensive examples and accurate imports

* docs: reorganize observability tools into dedicated section with comprehensive overview and improved navigation

* docs: rename how-to section to learn and add comprehensive overview page

* docs: finalize documentation reorganization and update navigation labels

* docs: enhance README with comprehensive badges, navigation links, and getting started video

title: Conditional Tasks
description: Learn how to use conditional tasks in a crewAI kickoff

## Introduction
Conditional Tasks in crewAI allow for dynamic workflow adaptation based on the outcomes of previous tasks.
This powerful feature enables crews to make decisions and execute tasks selectively, enhancing the flexibility and efficiency of your AI-driven processes.
## Example Usage
```python Code
from typing import List
from pydantic import BaseModel
from crewai import Agent, Crew
from crewai.tasks.conditional_task import ConditionalTask
from crewai.tasks.task_output import TaskOutput
from crewai.task import Task
from crewai_tools import SerperDevTool
# Define a condition function for the conditional task
# If false, the task will be skipped, if true, then execute the task.
def is_data_missing(output: TaskOutput) -> bool:
return len(output.pydantic.events) < 10 # this will skip this task
# Define the agents
data_fetcher_agent = Agent(
role="Data Fetcher",
goal="Fetch data online using Serper tool",
backstory="Backstory 1",
verbose=True,
tools=[SerperDevTool()]
)
data_processor_agent = Agent(
role="Data Processor",
goal="Process fetched data",
backstory="Backstory 2",
verbose=True
)
summary_generator_agent = Agent(
role="Summary Generator",
goal="Generate summary from fetched data",
backstory="Backstory 3",
verbose=True
)
class EventOutput(BaseModel):
events: List[str]
task1 = Task(
description="Fetch data about events in San Francisco using Serper tool",
expected_output="List of 10 things to do in SF this week",
agent=data_fetcher_agent,
output_pydantic=EventOutput,
)
conditional_task = ConditionalTask(
description="""
Check if data is missing. If we have less than 10 events,
fetch more events using Serper tool so that
we have a total of 10 events in SF this week..
""",
expected_output="List of 10 Things to do in SF this week",
condition=is_data_missing,
agent=data_processor_agent,
)
task3 = Task(
description="Generate summary of events in San Francisco from fetched data",
expected_output="A complete report on the customer and their customers and competitors, including their demographics, preferences, market positioning and audience engagement.",
agent=summary_generator_agent,
)
# Create a crew with the tasks
crew = Crew(
agents=[data_fetcher_agent, data_processor_agent, summary_generator_agent],
tasks=[task1, conditional_task, task3],
verbose=True,
planning=True
)
# Run the crew
result = crew.kickoff()
print("results", result)
```
