Go LLM Agent Loop: ReAct Pattern with Guardrails and Cost Control

This article details how to build a robust LLM agent loop in Go, focusing on the ReAct (reason, act, observe) pattern. It emphasizes creating a provider-agnostic interface for chat models and a typed tool registry to manage plug-in tools. The core of the implementation involves a loop with explicit guardrails, including limits on steps, total tokens, repeated tool calls, and overall runtime, to ensure controlled and cost-effective agent execution. AI

IMPACT Provides a reusable framework for developers building LLM agents in Go, enhancing control and cost management.

    LLM Tool Calling in Go: A ReAct-Style Agent Loop with Guardrails and Cost Control

    <p>Most of my agent projects in Go share one piece of code: the loop. The model looks at the conversation, decides to call a tool or answer, the program runs the tool, feeds the result back, and repeats. That's the ReAct pattern (reason, act, observe) in its practical form.</p> <…
