🤖 VERL + LangGraph Multi-Agent Coding Framework

A sophisticated multi-agent system that combines LangGraph's orchestration capabilities with VERL's reinforcement learning to deliver superior code generation, review, and execution through collaborative AI agents.

🌟 Features

🤖 Three Specialized Agents

• 🔧 Code Generator Agent: Creates initial code solutions from problem descriptions
• 📝 Code Reviewer Agent: Reviews and suggests improvements for code quality, security, and performance
• ⚡ Code Executor Agent: Tests and validates code execution in safe sandbox environments

🔄 LangGraph Orchestration

• State Machine Workflows: Sophisticated multi-agent coordination
• Conditional Routing: Dynamic decision-making based on context
• Error Recovery: Automatic retry and fallback mechanisms
• Human-in-the-Loop: Optional human feedback integration

🧠 VERL Reinforcement Learning

• Continuous Improvement: Agents learn from feedback and performance
• Multiple RL Algorithms: PPO, GRPO, DAPO, and more
• Reward Function Design: Optimized for code quality metrics
• Distributed Training: Scale across multiple GPUs

🛡️ Production Ready

• Secure Execution: Docker-based sandboxed code execution

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Python 3.8+
• Docker (optional, for secure code execution)
• Git

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/multiminddev/coding-framework.git
cd coding-framework

2. Set up virtual environment:

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

3. Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt
# OR for development
pip install -e ".[dev]"

4. Set up environment variables:

cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your API keys and configuration

5. Create default configuration:

mkdir -p config
python -c "
from src.coding_framework.utils.config import create_default_config
create_default_config('config/default.yaml')
print('✅ Default configuration created at config/default.yaml')
"

🎯 Basic Usage

Solve a Coding Problem

# Solve a simple problem
python -m coding_framework.cli solve "Write a function to reverse a string" --language python

# Include tests and focus on specific areas
python -m coding_framework.cli solve "Implement binary search" \
  --language python \
  --include-tests \
  --focus-areas "performance,correctness"

Review Existing Code

# Review a code file
python -m coding_framework.cli review path/to/code.py \
  --focus "security,performance" \
  --severity "high"

Execute Code Safely

# Execute code in sandbox
python -m coding_framework.cli execute path/to/script.py \
  --timeout 30 \
  --tests

Check System Health

# Health check for all components
python -m coding_framework.cli health

# Check specific agent
python -m coding_framework.cli health --agent generator

📖 Detailed Usage

  model: "gpt-4o-mini"
  temperature: 0.7

agents:
  generator:
    temperature: 0.7
    include_comments: true
    supported_languages: ["python", "javascript", "java"]
  
  reviewer:
    temperature: 0.3
    focus_areas: ["correctness", "security", "performance"]
    
  executor:
    execution_timeout: 30
    sandboxed_execution: true
    docker_enabled: true

workflow:
  max_iterations: 3
  human_in_loop: false
  target_review_score: 80.0

Programming Examples

Python API Usage

import asyncio
from coding_framework import CodingSupervisor
from coding_framework.utils import load_config

async def main():
    # Load configuration
    config = load_config("config/default.yaml")
    
    # Initialize supervisor
    supervisor = CodingSupervisor(config)
    await supervisor.initialize()
    
    # Solve a problem
    result = await supervisor.solve_problem(
        "Write a function to find the longest palindrome in a string",
        context={
            "language": "python",
            "include_tests": True,
            "style": "clean"
        }
    )
    
    print("Generated Code:")
    print(result["code"])
    
    print("\nReview:")
    print(result["review"])
    
    print(f"\nExecution Result:")
    print(result["execution"])

# Run the example
asyncio.run(main())

Advanced Workflow Customization

from coding_framework.orchestration import CodingWorkflow

# Custom workflow configuration
workflow_config = {
    "max_iterations": 5,
    "human_in_loop": True,
    "target_review_score": 85.0,
    "min_execution_score": 70.0,
}

# Initialize with custom config
workflow = CodingWorkflow(agents, workflow_config)
result = await workflow.run(problem, context)

Common Issues

"Docker not available" Error

# Install Docker
# Linux:
sudo apt-get install docker.io
sudo systemctl start docker

# macOS:
brew install --cask docker

# Test Docker
docker run hello-world

LLM API Connection Issues

# Check API key
python -c "import os; print('OpenAI:', bool(os.getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY')))"

# Test connection
python -m coding_framework.cli health --agent generator

Performance Issues

# Check system resources
python -c "
import psutil
print(f'CPU: {psutil.cpu_percent()}%')
print(f'Memory: {psutil.virtual_memory().percent}%')
"

# Enable debug logging
python -m coding_framework.cli --log-level DEBUG --verbose solve "test problem"

Debug Mode

# Enable comprehensive debugging
export DEBUG=true
