them along in the chain. At the end, it saves any returned variables.
There are many different types of memory - please see memory docs
for the full catalog.
param metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None¶
Optional metadata associated with the chain. Defaults to None.
This metadata will be associated with each call to this chain,
and passed as arguments to the handlers defined in callbacks.

Raises ValidationError if the input data cannot be parsed to form a valid model.
param callback_manager: Optional[BaseCallbackManager] = None¶
Deprecated, use callbacks instead.
param callbacks: Callbacks = None¶
Optional list of callback handlers (or callback manager). Defaults to None.
Callback handlers are called throughout the lifecycle of a call to a chain,
starting with on_chain_start, ending with on_chain_end or on_chain_error.
Each custom chain can optionally call additional callback methods, see Callback docs
for full details.
param chain: langchain.chains.llm.LLMChain [Required]¶
param constitutional_principles: List[langchain.chains.constitutional_ai.models.ConstitutionalPrinciple] [Required]¶


param critique_chain: langchain.chains.llm.LLMChain [Required]¶
param memory: Optional[BaseMemory] = None¶
Optional memory object. Defaults to None.
Memory is a class that gets called at the start
and at the end of every chain. At the start, memory loads variables and passes
them along in the chain. At the end, it saves any returned variables.
There are many different types of memory - please see memory docs
for the full catalog.
param metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None¶
Optional metadata associated with the chain. Defaults to None.
This metadata will be associated with each call to this chain,
and passed as arguments to the handlers defined in callbacks.
You can use these to eg identify a specific instance of a chain with its use case.
param return_intermediate_steps: bool = False¶
param revision_chain: langchain.chains.llm.LLMChain [Required]¶
param tags: Optional[List[str]] = None¶
Optional list of tags associated with the chain. Defaults to None.
These tags will be associated with each call to this chain,
and passed as arguments to the handlers defined in callbacks.
You can use these to eg identify a specific instance of a chain with its use case.
param verbose: bool [Optional]¶
Whether or not run in verbose mode. In verbose mode, some intermediate logs
will be printed to the console. Defaults to langchain.verbose value.
__call__(inputs: Union[Dict[str, Any], Any], return_only_outputs: bool = False, callbacks: Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]] = None, *, tags: Optional[List[str]] = None, metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None, include_run_info: bool = False) → Dict[str, Any]¶
Execute the chain.
Parameters


Execute the chain.
Parameters
inputs – Dictionary of inputs, or single input if chain expects
only one param. Should contain all inputs specified in
Chain.input_keys except for inputs that will be set by the chain’s
memory.
return_only_outputs – Whether to return only outputs in the
response. If True, only new keys generated by this chain will be
returned. If False, both input keys and new keys generated by this
chain will be returned. Defaults to False.
callbacks – Callbacks to use for this chain run. These will be called in
addition to callbacks passed to the chain during construction, but only
these runtime callbacks will propagate to calls to other objects.
tags – List of string tags to pass to all callbacks. These will be passed in
addition to tags passed to the chain during construction, but only
these runtime tags will propagate to calls to other objects.
metadata – Optional metadata associated with the chain. Defaults to None
include_run_info – Whether to include run info in the response. Defaults
to False.
Returns
A dict of named outputs. Should contain all outputs specified inChain.output_keys.
async abatch(inputs: List[Input], config: Optional[Union[RunnableConfig, List[RunnableConfig]]] = None, *, max_concurrency: Optional[int] = None) → List[Output]¶
async acall(inputs: Union[Dict[str, Any], Any], return_only_outputs: bool = False, callbacks: Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]] = None, *, tags: Optional[List[str]] = None, metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None, include_run_info: bool = False) → Dict[str, Any]¶
Asynchronously execute the chain.
Parameters
inputs – Dictionary of inputs, or single input if chain expects
only one param. Should contain all inputs specified in


only one param. Should contain all inputs specified in
Chain.input_keys except for inputs that will be set by the chain’s
memory.
return_only_outputs – Whether to return only outputs in the
response. If True, only new keys generated by this chain will be
returned. If False, both input keys and new keys generated by this
chain will be returned. Defaults to False.
callbacks – Callbacks to use for this chain run. These will be called in
addition to callbacks passed to the chain during construction, but only
these runtime callbacks will propagate to calls to other objects.
tags – List of string tags to pass to all callbacks. These will be passed in
addition to tags passed to the chain during construction, but only
these runtime tags will propagate to calls to other objects.
metadata – Optional metadata associated with the chain. Defaults to None
include_run_info – Whether to include run info in the response. Defaults
to False.
Returns
A dict of named outputs. Should contain all outputs specified inChain.output_keys.
async ainvoke(input: Dict[str, Any], config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None) → Dict[str, Any]¶
apply(input_list: List[Dict[str, Any]], callbacks: Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]] = None) → List[Dict[str, str]]¶
Call the chain on all inputs in the list.
async arun(*args: Any, callbacks: Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]] = None, tags: Optional[List[str]] = None, metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → Any¶
Convenience method for executing chain.
The main difference between this method and Chain.__call__ is that this
method expects inputs to be passed directly in as positional arguments or


method expects inputs to be passed directly in as positional arguments or
keyword arguments, whereas Chain.__call__ expects a single input dictionary
with all the inputs
Parameters
*args – If the chain expects a single input, it can be passed in as the
sole positional argument.
callbacks – Callbacks to use for this chain run. These will be called in
addition to callbacks passed to the chain during construction, but only
these runtime callbacks will propagate to calls to other objects.
tags – List of string tags to pass to all callbacks. These will be passed in
addition to tags passed to the chain during construction, but only
these runtime tags will propagate to calls to other objects.
**kwargs – If the chain expects multiple inputs, they can be passed in
directly as keyword arguments.
Returns
The chain output.
Example
# Suppose we have a single-input chain that takes a 'question' string:
await chain.arun("What's the temperature in Boise, Idaho?")
# -> "The temperature in Boise is..."
# Suppose we have a multi-input chain that takes a 'question' string
# and 'context' string:
question = "What's the temperature in Boise, Idaho?"
context = "Weather report for Boise, Idaho on 07/03/23..."
await chain.arun(question=question, context=context)
# -> "The temperature in Boise is..."
