Action Input Error

In my Searcher Agent, I’m setting: tools=[searchTool],
searchTool = SerperDevTool( api_key=srprKey, n_results=numRet )

Anyone have an idea why I’m getting the following error:

Tool Output:

Error: the Action Input is not a valid key, value dictionary.

Agent: Senior Web Searcher

Task: Perform a web search about “AI for Sustainable Development Goals” to find relevant URLs.

Agent: Senior Web Searcher

Using tool: Search the internet

Tool Input:

“{"name": "AI for Sustainable Development Goals", "description": "", "args_schema": {}, "return_direct": false, "verbose": true, "callbacks": "None", "callback_manager": "None", "tags": ["funding", "grant"], "metadata": {"search_query": "AI for Sustainable Development Goals"}, "handle_tool_error": false, "handle_validation_error": false, "response_format": "content_and_artifact", "func": "None", "coroutine": "None"}”

Tool Output:

Error: the Action Input is not a valid key, value dictionary.

I am also faced the same issue bro.

This is how I resolved the issue:
Change the prompt (goal,backstory,description, .etc)

Instruct the agent how the output should be like giving an example of the output.

Hope this helps.

And one more thing is try to use the best model.
Sometimes you may need a better model for the crew ai agents.

Thank you! I have a few on my computer, and will document test results with each.
