**MCTS + LLM + Prompt Engineering => Enhanced LLM Reponse Quality** 🌲📝✨

</div>
<br>

## 🌟 Overview

**mcts-llm** is a lightweight repo that integrates Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) with prompt engineering techniques to enhance the performance of Large Language Models (LLMs). The idea is that scaling up during inference for better LLM reponse quality could become very valuable versus spending more on compute during training. This can extend beyond math problems such as reasoning, knowledge extraction. This repo can fine-tune prompt instructions and benchmark the performance of various MCTS adaptations for prompt engineering.

## 🛠️ Installation

### PyPI
```shell
pip install mcts-llm
```

### Docker
Create a `.env` file with the following variables:
```
OPENAI_API_KEY=<your-openai-api-key>
DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=<your-deepseek-api-key>
DEEPSEEK_BASE_URL=<your-deepseek-base-url>
OLLAMA_BASE_URL=http://host.docker.internal:11434
```

Build the docker container:

```shell
cd mcts-llm
make debug
```

<br>

## 🚀 Run
### Quickstart
```python

    temperature=1.0,
    max_tokens=1024,
    num_ctx=1024,
    timeout_s=600
)
dspy.settings.configure(lm=ollama, experimental=True)
mctsr = MCTSr()
