    A Coding Guide to Build a Tool-Calling ReAct Agent Fusing Prolog Logic with Gemini and LangGraph

    July 24, 2025

    In this tutorial, we are walking through a hands-on fusion of symbolic logic and generative AI. We set up PySwip to embed a Prolog knowledge base, wrap its predicates as LangChain tools, and then wire everything into a ReAct-style agent. Along the way, we are crafting family-relationship rules, mathematical predicates like factorial, and list utilities, then letting the agent plan, call tools, and reason over the results. By the end of the setup, we can issue natural-language questions and watch the agent translate them into precise Prolog queries, stitch together multi-step answers, and return structured JSON-backed insights.

    !apt-get install swi-prolog -y
    !pip install pyswip langchain-google-genai langgraph langchain-core

    We install SWI-Prolog with apt-get and then add pyswip, LangChain’s Google GenAI wrapper, LangGraph, and core LangChain packages via pip so we can bridge Prolog logic with our Gemini-powered agent. With these dependencies in place, we’re ready to code, query, and orchestrate reasoning end to end.

    os.environ["GOOGLE_API_KEY"] = GOOGLE_API_KEY
    
    
    llm = ChatGoogleGenerativeAI(model="gemini-1.5-flash", temperature=0)

    We load our core stack, including PySwip for Prolog, LangChain and LangGraph for tooling, and Gemini 1.5 Flash for LLM power. We then set the GOOGLE_API_KEY environment variable so the model can authenticate. With the LLM initialized at zero temperature, we’re primed to get deterministic, logic-grounded answers from our agent.

           except Exception as e:
               return [{"error": f"Query failed: {str(e)}"}]

    We wrap SWI-Prolog in an AdvancedPrologInterface, load a rich rule/fact base on init, and assert each clause safely. We then expose a query() method that runs any Prolog goal and returns JSON-friendly results (or a clear error/no-solution message), allowing us to drive logic queries directly from Python.

       else:
           return json.dumps([{"error": f"Query type '{query_type}' not supported"}])

    We instantiate AdvancedPrologInterface and then wrap its queries as LangChain tools, such as family_relationships, mathematical_operations, and advanced_queries, so that we can call precise Prolog goals from natural language. We define each tool to format and dispatch the right query (such as factorial/2 or cousin lookups) and return clean JSON, allowing our agent to orchestrate logic calls seamlessly.

    We register our three Prolog tools, spin up a ReAct agent around Gemini, and then script helper routines, run_family_analysis, demonstrate_complex_reasoning, and an interactive loop, to fire natural-language queries that the agent translates into Prolog calls. This way, we test simple prompts, multi-step reasoning, and live Q&A, all while keeping the logic layer transparent and debuggable.

    We wire everything together in main() to verify our Prolog goals, run the family analysis, and showcase multi-step reasoning, then show_mathematical_capabilities() stresses factorial queries from natural language. We conclude by printing a quick recap of what we’ve built so far, allowing us to confidently extend the stack with new rules or swap models next.

    In conclusion, we have demonstrated that symbolic reasoning and LLMs complement each other beautifully: Prolog guarantees correctness on well-defined logic, while Gemini handles flexible language understanding and orchestration. We are leaving with a working scaffold, direct Prolog queries for verification, tool-wrapped predicates for agents, and demo functions for complex family tree and mathematical analyses. From here, we are ready to expand the knowledge base, add new domains (such as finance rules, game logic, and knowledge graphs), or swap in different LLMs. We are also positioned to expose this stack via an interactive UI or API, allowing others to explore logic-guided AI in real-time.
