Building an Intelligent Contract Assistant with OpenAI Agents SDK

In this article, we explore how we leveraged the OpenAI Agents SDK to create a sophisticated contract management system that combines multiple AI agents working in harmony. Let's dive into the key architectural decisions and technical implementations that make this system powerful and efficient.

️ Multi-Agent Architecture

At the heart of our system lies a multi-agent collaboration pattern, orchestrated by a supervisor agent that intelligently routes requests to specialized sub-agents. This architecture enables us to handle complex contract-related tasks with precision and efficiency.

The Supervisor Agent

The supervisor agent serves as the frontline interface, managing the conversation flow and making intelligent routing decisions. It's equipped with:

  • Advanced intent classification capabilities
  • Knowledge of contract templates and guidelines
  • Ability to handle general queries directly
  • Smart routing to specialized sub-agents using the handoff mechanism

Specialized Sub-Agents

1. Contract Drafting Agent

This agent demonstrates the power of combining LLMs with structured workflows:

  • ️ Uses function tools to implement a three-step process:
    1. Contract type determination
    2. Dynamic question generation based on contract type
    3. Contract generation using GPT-4
  • Supports three contract types:
    • Purchase Agreements
    • Franchise Agreements
    • Time and Materials Contracts
  • Leverages template files for consistent structure
2. Existing Contract Agent

Handles all aspects of contract management:

  • Contract status retrieval
  • Detailed contract information
  • ❓ Query resolution for existing agreements
3. General Contract Assistant

Provides expert guidance on:

  • Contract type selection
  • ❓ General contract-related queries
  • Best practices and guidelines

⚙️ Technical Implementation Highlights

1. Handoff Mechanism

We implemented the Agent Pattern of Routing using the handoff_description feature, enabling seamless transitions between agents while maintaining context.

2. ️ Function Tools Integration

The system extensively uses function tools to:

  • Determine contract types
  • ❓ Generate relevant questions
  • Draft contracts using GPT-4
  • Retrieve contract details and status

3. ⚡ Streaming Outputs

Implemented real-time response streaming for:

  • Smooth conversation flow
  • ⚡ Immediate feedback
  • Enhanced user experience

Usage

Try out with these sample prompts -

  • "I need help with a purchase agreement."
  • "Can you show me the status of contract #12345?"

Key Technologies

This implementation demonstrates how modern AI technologies can be combined to create sophisticated, practical applications that solve real-world business problems.
