LaVague is an open-source Large Action Model framework which aims to leverage advanced AI techniques (RAG, Few-shot learning, Chain of Thought) to develop effective AI Web Agents.
Our web agents take an objective, such as "Print installation steps for Hugging Face's Diffusers library Thought:" and performs the required actions to achieve this goal by leveraging our two core components:
- A World Model to break down an objective into instructions for step-by-step web actions
- An Action Engine which uses to “compile” these instructions into automation code, by leveraging Selenium or Playwright & execute them
You can download the LaVague PyPi package with:
pip install lavagueYou can then leverage our library to automate web actions based on natural language objectives:
from lavague.retrievers import OpsmSplitRetriever
from lavague.defaults import DefaultEmbedder, DefaultLLM, default_get_selenium_driver
from lavague.action_engine import ActionEngine
from lavague.world_model import GPTWorldModel
from lavague.agents import WebAgent
from lavague.web_utils import resize_driver
driver = default_get_selenium_driver()
action_engine = ActionEngine(DefaultLLM(), OpsmSplitRetriever(DefaultEmbedder(), top_k=3))
world_model = GPTWorldModel()
agent = WebAgent(driver, action_engine, world_model)
agent.get("https://huggingface.co/docs")
agent.run("Go on the quicktour of PEFT")For more information on this example and how to use LaVague, see our quick-tour.
Note, these examples use our default OpenAI API configuration and you will need to set the OPENAI_API_KEY variable in your local environment with a valid API key for these to work.
For an end-to-end example of LaVague in a Google Colab, see our quick-tour notebook
We would love your help and support on our quest to build a robust and reliable Large Action Model for web automation.

TO keep up to date with our project backlog here.
Note, this project executes LLM-generated code using exec. This is not considered a safe practice. We therefore recommend taking extra care when using LaVague (such as running LaVague in a sandboxed environment)!
By default LaVague records some basic anonymous values to help us gather data to build better agents and Large Action Models:
- Version of LaVague installed
- Code generated for each web action step
- LLM used (i.e GPT4)
- Randomly generated anonymous user ID
- Whether you are using a CLI command or our library directly
- The URL you performed an action on
- Whether the action failed or succeeded
- Error message, where relevant
- The source nodes (chunks of HTML code retrieved from the web page to perform this action)
If you want to turn off telemetry, you can set your TELEMETRY_VAR environment variable to NONE in your working environment.
