feat: agentic UX#10567
Conversation
Created empty __init__.py files in agentic, core, tools, and utils directories to initialize them as Python packages.
Introduces a new agentic utilities module for Langflow, including template search, tag extraction, and template count functions. Adds a README, demo script, and comprehensive unit tests for template search functionality.
Introduces a new MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Langflow agentic tools using FastMCP. Adds server, CLI, example usage, tests, and comprehensive documentation. Exposes four MCP tools: search_templates, get_template, list_all_tags, and count_templates, enabling AI assistants to query and filter Langflow templates programmatically.
Adds support for unparameterized list annotations by treating them as lists of strings when converting schemas to Langflow inputs. This ensures nullable array schemas without explicit item types are handled gracefully.
Removed the 'tags' parameter from the search_templates function and set a default value for 'fields'. Updated the call to list_templates to match the new signature, streamlining template search functionality.
Introduced process_output_item to handle tool output items, attempting to parse text-type items as JSON. This improves downstream handling of tool outputs by converting JSON strings to dictionaries when possible.
Replaces direct settings access with a lazy-loading function for the knowledge bases root path in Knowledge Ingestion and Knowledge Retrieval starter projects. This improves reliability and consistency when accessing the knowledge base directory, and updates all usages to the new helper function.
Introduces IBM watsonx.ai as a selectable model provider in multiple starter project JSONs. Adds new input fields for 'base_url', 'project_id', and 'max_output_tokens' to support IBM watsonx.ai integration. Updates agent component code to handle new provider and its required parameters.
Ollama has been added as a supported provider alongside Anthropic, Google Generative AI, OpenAI, and IBM watsonx.ai in all starter project JSON files. This expands the available options for LLM integration in initial setup templates.
Refactored model_input_constants.py to update the OLLAMA_MODEL_INPUTS and OLLAMA_MODEL_INPUTS_MAP. Modified ollama.py to use the new input mapping and improved input handling for Ollama components.
Introduces a new MCP tool for creating flows from starter templates in Langflow Agentic. Adds the utility function `create_flow_from_template_and_get_link` and exposes it via the FastMCP server, allowing users to create flows by template id and receive a UI link. Updates imports and documentation accordingly.
Introduces new component search and retrieval tools to the MCP server, including endpoints for searching, listing, and counting components. Adds support functions in support.py for data normalization and a new component_search.py utility module. Updates the Nvidia Remix starter project to use the latest MCPToolsComponent code.
Introduces async utility functions for generating ASCII and text representations of flow graphs, as well as metadata summaries. These utilities support fetching flows by ID or name, error handling, and integration with Langflow's graph and logging modules.
Introduces flow component management utilities in `flow_component.py` for retrieving, updating, and listing component field values. Exposes new MCP tools in `server.py` for accessing component details, field values, updating fields, and listing all fields within a flow component.
Introduces SystemMessageGen.json flow for agentic system message generation and updates MCPTools component logic in flow_component.py to support new flow structure and tool handling.
create an aiButton that opens the prompt modal for demoing add multiinput mixin
Updated SystemMessageGen.json to support custom instructions, OpenAI model configuration, and improved agent settings. Removed unused __init__.py files from agentic, core, tools, and utils directories to clean up the codebase.
Introduces a 'verify_ssl' boolean input to MCPToolsComponent for controlling SSL certificate verification in HTTPS connections. The option is added to the server config if not present, allowing users to disable verification for development or testing with self-signed certificates.
Improves logic for updating tool dropdown options by checking if the server has changed and whether tool mode is active, reducing unnecessary updates. Adds a process_output_item method to parse tool output as JSON when appropriate, enhancing output handling.
first pass at on button click generate input and auto fill a field
Updated the SystemMessageGen.json flow to use the Prompt Template and Parser components instead of MCPTools. Adjusted edges, nodes, and component configurations to reflect the new prompt-based workflow, removing tool selection and execution logic in favor of prompt generation and parsing.

⚡️Codeflash found 31% (0.31x) speedup for replace_none_and_null_with_empty_str in src/backend/base/langflow/agentic/mcp/support.py
⏱️ Runtime : 3.04 milliseconds → 2.31 milliseconds (best of 155 runs)
📝 Explanation and details
The optimized code achieves a 31% speedup through several key performance improvements:
1. Eliminated Redundant Set Creation
The original code created set(required_fields) if required_fields else set() on every function call, even when required_fields was None. The optimization changes this to set(required_fields) if required_fields else None, avoiding unnecessary empty set creation.
2. Branch Optimization for Required Fields
The most significant improvement comes from splitting the main loop into two branches based on whether required_fields_set exists. This eliminates the expensive required_fields_set - new_dict.keys() set difference operation for cases where no required fields are specified (which appears to be ~67% of the test data based on the profiler showing 2741 iterations in the "else" branch vs 511 in the "if" branch).
3. Precomputed Constants
Moving null_strs = {"null", "nan", "infinity", "-infinity"} and not_avail = "Not available" outside the function definitions prevents repeated allocations during each call.
4. Improved Type Checking
Using elif isinstance(v, float) instead of separate if statements ensures mutually exclusive type checks, providing marginal performance gains by avoiding unnecessary isinstance calls.
5. Optimized Attribute Access
The hasattr(v, "isnat") check is now separated from the getattr call, avoiding the redundant attribute lookup when the attribute doesn't exist.
Performance Impact Analysis:
- The line profiler shows the most expensive operation (
new_dict = {k: convert_value(v) for k, v in d.items()}) remains the bottleneck at ~64% of total time - However, the set difference operation (
required_fields_set - new_dict.keys()) was reduced from 6.8% to 1.3% of total time - The optimization is particularly effective for workloads where
required_fieldsis frequentlyNoneor empty, as evidenced by the large "else" branch in the profiler results
These optimizations maintain identical behavior while significantly reducing computational overhead, especially beneficial for data processing pipelines that frequently call this function with varying required_fields parameters.

⚡️Codeflash found 90% (0.90x) speedup for list_all_tags in src/backend/base/langflow/agentic/mcp/server.py
⏱️ Runtime : 383 milliseconds → 201 milliseconds (best of 17 runs)
📝 Explanation and details
The key optimization is replacing text-based file reading with binary reading for JSON parsing. The original code used Path(template_file).read_text(encoding="utf-8") which forces UTF-8 decoding, while the optimized version uses template_file.read_bytes() directly.
What changed:
- File I/O optimization:
read_text(encoding="utf-8")→read_bytes() - Removed redundant Path construction:
Path(template_file)→template_file(since glob already returns Path objects) - Streamlined exception handling: Only catch
orjson.JSONDecodeErrorinstead of bothjson.JSONDecodeErrorandorjson.JSONDecodeError
Why it's faster:
The performance gain comes from avoiding UTF-8 decoding overhead. When using read_text(), Python must:
- Read file bytes
- Decode bytes to UTF-8 string
- Pass string to
orjson.loads()
With read_bytes(), orjson can parse directly from bytes, eliminating the intermediate string conversion. The line profiler shows the critical file reading operation dropped from ~409ms to ~205ms (50% reduction), which explains most of the overall 90% speedup.
Impact on workloads:
This optimization particularly benefits scenarios with many JSON files or large JSON content, as seen in the test cases with 100+ files or 1000+ tags. The function appears to be used for template discovery in the MCP server context, so faster startup times when scanning template directories would be noticeable to users.
Test case performance:
The optimization excels with larger datasets - tests with hundreds of files or extensive tag collections benefit most from the reduced I/O overhead per file operation.

@edwinjosechittilappilly the frontend tests are flaky so if we re run it will eventually pass. I don't know if we want to address that in this issue. Even with the wait for load sometiems the tools is not available. we could also increase the retries but that would increase our already long CI time |
Adds a try-except block to catch TypeError when checking issubclass for objects that are types but not proper classes, such as typing special forms. This prevents serialization errors for generic aliases and similar constructs.
Changed 'new_value' parameter type to str in update_flow_component_field for stricter typing. Simplified exception handling in serialize by removing unnecessary try/except around issubclass checks for class-based Pydantic types.
…flow into feat-agentic-ux
This pull request introduces several new modules and utilities to support agentic features in Langflow, including component search, template utilities, and support functions. It also adds onboarding and guidance "nudges" to the agentic schema for improved user experience. The changes are grouped into new backend functionalities, schema enhancements, and utility additions.
New backend agentic functionalities:
component_search.pywith asynchronous utilities for searching, filtering, and retrieving Langflow components by name, type, and metadata fields, including error handling and documentation.support.pywith a function to normalize data dictionaries by replacing missing or invalid values (None, 'null', NaN, etc.) with a "Not available" string and ensuring required fields are present.Agentic schema enhancements:
schema.jsondefining a set of "nudges"—onboarding prompts and quick actions for the Langflow Assistant UI, such as navigation to onboarding, creating flows, browsing components, exploring templates, reading docs, and sharing feedback.Utility and module structure improvements:
utils/__init__.pyto expose template search utilities for agentic features, including functions for listing templates and retrieving tags/counts.langflow.agenticand its submodules to clarify their purpose and improve maintainability. [1] [2]Entrypoint for MCP server:
mcp/__main__.pyto provide a Python module entrypoint for running the Langflow Agentic MCP server viapython -m langflow.agentic.mcp.Summary by CodeRabbit
