it's a 3 years old code, i think that it's been integrated & overpassed,
by the way: They chose a really bad short name!!!

What do you mean by that? If you want to use ReAct as merely a new prompt technique, then there would be no issues.

Suppose we want to generate a product description for a new smartphone. We can use ReAct prompting to generate a description that highlights the phone's features and benefits.

Reason: Generate a list of the phone's features, such as its camera resolution, battery life, and storage capacity.
Act: Use the generated features to create a product description that showcases the phone's benefits and unique selling points.

However, I struggle to think of a solution for supporting Reason+Act without an API or tools involved. Maybe you can achieve this more advance usage using LiteLLM instead.

It's already supported as "native" tool calling.
