Code Review Comment for PR #2010

Overview

This pull request updates year references from 2024 to 2025 across multiple documentation and test files, ensuring that examples and test cases remain current and relevant. While the updates are important, several suggestions can enhance the sustainability and maintainability of these changes.

Code Quality Findings

Key Changes and Suggestions:

1. README.md:

   • Change: Updated the year reference in the research task description.
   • Impact: Low
   • Suggestion: Replace hardcoded year with a dynamic reference. Example:

   research_task:
     description: >
       Conduct a thorough research about {topic}
       Make sure you find any interesting and relevant information given
       the current year is {current_year}.

2. docs/concepts/planning.mdx:

   • Change: Updated search keywords and year references.
   • Impact: Medium
   • Issue: Hardcoded years may become outdated again.
   • Suggestion: Use placeholder variables for years. Example:

     - Search for the latest papers published in {previous_year} and early {current_year}.
     - Use keywords like "AI advancements {current_year}", etc.

3. docs/concepts/tasks.mdx:

   • Change: Updated task examples with year references.
   • Impact: Low
   • Consistency Issue: Continued use of hardcoded years.
   • Suggestion: Implement dynamic year references. Example:

   from datetime import datetime
   current_year = datetime.now().year
   research_task = Task(
       description=f"Conduct thorough research about AI Agents in {current_year}.",
       ...
   )

4. docs/how-to/human-input-on-execution.mdx:

   • Change: Updated year references.
   • Impact: Medium
   • Issue: Several hardcoded year references needing future updates.
   • Suggestion: Introduce template strings. Example:

   from datetime import datetime
   current_year = datetime.now().year
   task1 = Task(
       description=f"Conduct an analysis in {current_year}.",
       ...
   )

5. docs/quickstart.mdx:

   • Change: Year references updated.
   • Impact: Medium
   • Typos: Correct "5" to "2025".
   • Suggestion: Use dynamic year references in guides.

6. tests/config/tasks.yaml:

   • Change: Updated year in task configuration.
   • Impact: Low
   • Suggestion: Use environment variables. Example:

   research_task:
     description: >
       Conduct thorough research about {topic}
       Make sure you find relevant information for the year ${CURRENT_YEAR}.

7. tests/task_test.py:

   • Change: Year references updated in tests.
   • Impact: Low
   • Suggestion: Use dynamic data. Example:

   from datetime import datetime
   current_year = str(datetime.now().year)
   task.interpolate_inputs_and_add_conversation_history(
       inputs={"topic": "AI", "date": current_year}
   )

General Recommendations

1. Implement a centralized management system for year references to prevent repetitive manual updates.
2. Add automated tests to ensure year references are verified during continuous integration.
3. Advise the use of relative time references where appropriate to improve future-proofing.
4. Document processes for team members regarding time-sensitive content updates.
5. Consider a CI/CD check to validate year references regularly.

Conclusion

Although the updates made in this pull request are essential for maintaining relevance, improvements can be made by adopting dynamic year references, thus reducing future maintenance needs. The overall changes maintain clarity and consistency across the documentation and tests. The PR is approved with the suggested enhancements for a more sustainable coding approach.

Future Considerations

• Develop a GitHub Action that automatically suggests updates for year references as needed.
• Create a configuration system for managing time-sensitive variables effectively.
• Document the approach to handling time-sensitive content to facilitate easy updates in the future.

Thank you for your hard work on this PR!

@JinxTheCatto, the current year needs to be setted dynamically, to avoid the same problem next year, try using the datetime module
