    sequential

    Chain pipeline where the outputs of one step feed directly into next.

    Classes

    class
    Chain

    Abstract base class for creating structured sequences of calls to components.

    Chains should be used to encode a sequence of calls to components like models, document retrievers, other chains, etc., and provide a simple interface to this sequence.

    class
    SequentialChain

    Chain where the outputs of one chain feed directly into next.

    class
    SimpleSequentialChain

    Simple chain where the outputs of one step feed directly into next.
