from typing import List, Dict, Any

class LLMAgent:
    def __init__(self, api_key: str, model: str = "claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022"):
        self.client = Anthropic(api_key=api_key)
        self.model = model
        self.conversation_history: List[Dict[str, str]] = []

    async def chat(
        self,
        message: str,
        system_prompt: str = None,
        tools: List[Dict[str, Any]] = None
    ) -> str:
        """Send message and get response with optional tool calling."""
        messages = self.conversation_history + [{"role": "user", "content": message}]

        response = self.client.messages.create(
            model=self.model,
            max_tokens=4096,
            system=system_prompt,
            messages=messages,
            tools=tools
        )

        # Handle tool calls if present
        if response.stop_reason == "tool_use":
            # Process tool calls
            tool_results = self._execute_tools(response.content)
            # Continue conversation with tool results
            return await self._continue_with_tools(messages, response, tool_results)

        assistant_message = response.content[0].text
        self.conversation_history.extend([
            {"role": "user", "content": message},
            {"role": "assistant", "content": assistant_message}
        ])

        return assistant_message
```

### Pattern 2: RAG System

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
from typing import List, Tuple
import numpy as np

class RAGSystem:
    def __init__(self, embedding_model: str = "all-MiniLM-L6-v2"):
        self.embedder = SentenceTransformer(embedding_model)
        self.documents: List[str] = []
        self.embeddings: np.ndarray = None

    def add_documents(self, documents: List[str]):
        """Add documents to the knowledge base."""
        self.documents.extend(documents)
        new_embeddings = self.embedder.encode(documents)

        if self.embeddings is None:
            self.embeddings = new_embeddings
        else:
            self.embeddings = np.vstack([self.embeddings, new_embeddings])

    def retrieve(self, query: str, top_k: int = 3) -> List[Tuple[str, float]]:
        """Retrieve most relevant documents for query."""
        query_embedding = self.embedder.encode([query])[0]

        # Compute cosine similarity
        similarities = np.dot(self.embeddings, query_embedding)
        similarities = similarities / (
            np.linalg.norm(self.embeddings, axis=1) * np.linalg.norm(query_embedding)
        )

        # Get top-k indices
        top_indices = np.argsort(similarities)[-top_k:][::-1]

        return [(self.documents[idx], similarities[idx]) for idx in top_indices]

    async def generate_answer(self, query: str, llm_agent: LLMAgent) -> str:
        """Retrieve relevant docs and generate answer."""
        relevant_docs = self.retrieve(query, top_k=3)

        context = "\n\n".join([f"Document {i+1}: {doc}"
                               for i, (doc, _) in enumerate(relevant_docs)])

        prompt = f"""Based on the following context, answer the query.

Context:
{context}
