This is really cool. Recently found Foundry on Discord, how is this different?

  Foundry is doing a nice job bringing functions in LLM apps to life. That's something I am also working on with Lemon AI functions. Besides that, to me it seems that it’s focused on read operations for web-based services. What I’m building is focused on allowing for read and write operations, both for internal tooling and web services to allow agents to take actions based on instructions. I’m essentially focussing on helping Langchain users to establish end-to-end workflow automation as quickly as possible. Going forward permission workflows will be covered as well so assistants can be team / user specific, something that I believe isn’t solved well by Zapier NLA right now.

    Never worked with functions so far, but excited to see where this is going. How does your work relate to OpenAI/Langchain functions then?
    • brockmeier 3y ago
      I think it’s best to view this separately. Langchain provides its own agent type (next to the commonly used ReAct agent) to interact with OpenAI functions. Lemon AI functions are standalone fallback mechanisms that will be used by the model in specific situations where near-deterministic model behavior is especially important, a bit similar to the functions offered by OpenAI just suitable for open source models. You can combine Lemon functions with any Langchain agent type. Hope this helps!
