Core Concepts
What is ReAct?
ReAct (Reasoning & Action) is a pattern that helps AI agents solve problems more effectively by combining two key abilities:
- Reasoning: Understanding the problem and planning a solution
- Action: Using tools and executing steps to implement the solution
Think of it like how a chef cooks a meal: - First, they reason about the recipe, ingredients, and cooking steps - Then they act by gathering ingredients, using tools, and cooking
How QuantaLogic Works
1. The Agent
The agent is your AI assistant. It: - Understands your instructions in plain language - Breaks down complex tasks into smaller steps - Chooses the right tools for each step - Learns from the results to improve
2. The Tool System
Tools are what the agent uses to get things done. Like a Swiss Army knife, each tool has a specific purpose:
- Code Tools: Write and run code
- File Tools: Read, write, and edit files
- Search Tools: Find information
- Analysis Tools: Process and understand data
Tools run in a secure sandbox to prevent any unwanted effects.
3. Memory Management
The agent keeps track of: - The current conversation - Previous actions and their results - Important context about your task
This helps it make better decisions and maintain context across multiple interactions.
Key Principles
1. Safety First
- All code runs in isolated environments
- Tools have clear permissions
- No unexpected side effects
2. Transparency
- See what the agent is thinking
- Watch tools in action
- Understand why decisions are made
3. Flexibility
- Works with different AI models
- Customizable tool sets
- Adaptable to various tasks
4. Learning
- Improves from experience
- Remembers successful patterns
- Avoids repeated mistakes
Example Flow
Here's how QuantaLogic solves a simple coding task:

User Request: "Create a function to sort a list of numbers"
-
Agent Reasoning:
- Need to write Python code
- Should handle different input types
-
Must include error checking
-
Agent Actions:
-
Result: Working, tested code that meets the requirements
