Plugins consist of one or more components that provide different functionalities to LangBot. Currently supported component types include:
  • Event Listeners (EventListener): Listen to events during pipeline execution and modify context or pipelines.
  • Commands (Command): Triggered by user command messages starting with ! (or other configured prefixes).
  • Tools (Tool): Called by LLMs during execution of LangBot’s built-in Local Agent.
  • Knowledge Engines (KnowledgeEngine): Provide knowledge base indexing and retrieval capabilities for LangBot, managing document ingestion, retrieval, and deletion.
  • Parsers (Parser): Parse binary files such as PDF, Word, etc. into structured text before document ingestion, for use by Knowledge Engines.
