Sweep: Add a new function in agent.ts to slow down conversations

[ykhli]

Checklist

• convex/agent.ts

• At the top of the file, import the 'sleep' function from the 'utils' file in the 'lib' directory. If it doesn't exist, create it. The function should use the setTimeout function to create a promise that resolves after a specified number of milliseconds. The code should look like this: "import { sleep } from './lib/utils';"
  • In the 'handleAgentInteraction' function, find the part of the code where the messages are being sent in the conversation. This should be inside the while loop that continues until the conversation ends.
  • After each message is sent, call the sleep function with the number of milliseconds you want to delay. The number of milliseconds can be a constant defined at the top of the file. The code should look like this: "await sleep(CONVERSATION_DELAY);"

Step 2: 🧐 Snippet Analysis

From looking through the relevant snippets, I decided to make the following modifications:

File Path

Proposed Changes

convex/agent.ts

Modify convex/agent.ts with contents: * At the top of the file, import the 'sleep' function from the 'utils' file in the 'lib' directory. If it doesn't exist, create it. The function should use the setTimeout function to create a promise that resolves after a specified number of milliseconds. The code should look like this: "import { sleep } from './lib/utils';" • In the 'handleAgentInteraction' function, find the part of the code where the messages are being sent in the conversation. This should be inside the while loop that continues until the conversation ends. • After each message is sent, call the sleep function with the number of milliseconds you want to delay. The number of milliseconds can be a constant defined at the top of the file. The code should look like this: "await sleep(CONVERSATION_DELAY);"

Step 3: 📝 Planning

I have created a plan for writing the pull request. I am now working my plan and coding the required changes to address this issue. Here is the planned pull request:

Add delay function to slow down conversations in agent.ts
sweep/add-delay-function

Description

This PR adds a delay function to slow down conversations in the agent.ts file. The delay function pauses the execution of the conversation for a specified period of time after each message is sent.

Summary of Changes

• Added import statement for the sleep function from the utils file in the lib directory
• Introduced a delay function using setTimeout in the utils file
• Called the delay function after each message is sent in the handleAgentInteraction function
• Added a constant for the conversation delay at the top of the file

Step 5: 🔁 Code Review

Here are my self-reviews of my changes at sweep/add-delay-function.

Here is the 1st review

No changes required. The code changes in the pull request are well implemented. The import of the 'sleep' function, the declaration of the 'CONVERSATION_DELAY' constant, and the use of the 'sleep' function inside the 'handleAgentInteraction' function are all correctly done. Keep up the good work!

I finished incorporating these changes.
