class UserProxyAgent(BaseChatAgent):
"""An agent that can represent a human user through an input function.
This agent can be used to represent a human user in a chat system by providing a custom input function.
Args:
name (str): The name of the agent.
description (str, optional): A description of the agent.
input_func (Optional[Callable[[str], str]], Callable[[str, Optional[CancellationToken]], Awaitable[str]]): A function that takes a prompt and returns a user input string.
.. note::
Using :class:`UserProxyAgent` puts a running team in a temporary blocked
state until the user responds. So it is important to time out the user input
function and cancel using the :class:`~autogen_core.CancellationToken` if the user does not respond.
The input function should also handle exceptions and return a default response if needed.
For typical use cases that involve
slow human responses, it is recommended to use termination conditions
such as :class:`~autogen_agentchat.conditions.HandoffTermination` or :class:`~autogen_agentchat.conditions.SourceMatchTermination`
to stop the running team and return the control to the application.
You can run the team again with the user input. This way, the state of the team
can be saved and restored when the user responds.
See `Pause for User Input <https://microsoft.github.io/autogen/dev/user-guide/agentchat-user-guide/tutorial/teams.html#pause-for-user-input>`_ for more information.
Example:
Simple usage case::
import asyncio
from autogen_core import CancellationToken
from autogen_agentchat.agents import UserProxyAgent
from autogen_agentchat.messages import TextMessage
async def simple_user_agent():
agent = UserProxyAgent("user_proxy")

agent.on_messages(
[TextMessage(content="What is your name? ", source="user")],
cancellation_token=CancellationToken(),
)
)
print(f"Your name is {response.chat_message.content}")
Example:
Cancellable usage case::
import asyncio
from typing import Any
from autogen_core import CancellationToken
from autogen_agentchat.agents import UserProxyAgent
from autogen_agentchat.messages import TextMessage
