Handling Data

Understanding what data was loaded and provided to an Agent is vital to understanding the behavior of the Agent.

For this purpose, the Arc DSL provides the getData() and setData() functions.

This functions can be called throughout the Arc DSL and captures the data that has loaded for a single turn of a conversation.

Most components of the Arc DSL, will store any data they is load into the context using the setData() function.

This includes the main system prompt and data loaded by functions.

Example:

agent {
    name = "weather"
    description = "Agent that provides weather data."
    prompt { """ Some system prompt """ }
    filterOutput {
        val data: List<Data>? = getData()
        // here the output can be checked against the data that was provided to the LLM.
    }
}

A common use case is to validate the output of the LLM against the data that was loaded.
