## Installation
Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/convergence-ai/proxy-lite.git
```
Set-up the environment with:
```bash
make proxy
```
Or do it manually:
```bash
pip install uv
uv venv --python 3.11 --python-preference managed
uv sync
uv pip install -e .
playwright install
```
## Usage
```bash
proxy --help
```
You can directly run Proxy Lite on a task with:
```bash
proxy "Find some markets near Kings Cross and tell me their ratings."
```
Alternatively you can run the local web ui with:
```bash
make app
```
### Proxy Lite Endpoint
By default, Proxy Lite will point to an endpoint set up on HuggingFace spaces.
> ❗ This is a demo endpoint and is not suitable for production, or even frequent hobbyist, use; it may be very slow when under even moderate load.
We recommend hosting your own endpoint with vLLM, you can use the following command:
```bash
vllm serve convergence-ai/proxy-lite-3b \
--trust-remote-code \
--enable-auto-tool-choice \
--tool-call-parser hermes \
--port 8008 \
```
The tool arguments are **very important** for parsing the tool calls from the model appropriately.
> **Important:** To serve the model locally, install vLLM and transformers with `uv sync --all-extras`. Qwen-2.5-VL support is not yet available in the latest release of `transformers` so installation from source is required (the appropriate revision is specified in the `pyproject.toml` file).
You can set the `api_base` to point to your local endpoint when calling Proxy Lite:
```bash
proxy --api-base http://localhost:8008/v1 "Book a table...
```
or by setting the environment variable:
```bash
export PROXY_LITE_API_BASE=http://localhost:8008/v1
```
## Scaffolding Proxy Lite in Python
If using the model outside the CLI or streamlit app, you can use the `Runner` class to launch the model in a web-browsing environment.
The `RunnerConfig` is how you configure the system setup, including the model used.
The library is designed to be modular and extendable, making it easy to swap out the environment, solver, or agent.
Example:
```python
import asyncio
from proxy_lite import Runner, RunnerConfig
config = RunnerConfig.from_dict(
{
"environment": {
"name": "webbrowser",
"homepage": "https://www.google.com",
"headless": True, # Don't show the browser
},
"solver": {
"name": "simple",
"agent": {
"name": "proxy_lite",
"client": {
"name": "convergence",
"model_id": "convergence-ai/proxy-lite-3b",
"api_base": "https://convergence-ai-demo-api.hf.space/v1",
},
},
},
"max_steps": 50,

Would you bet a product on this? Bounded 0–100 and slow moving.
