Crew.kickoff doesn't pass `inputs` argument into agent

[tonykipkemboi]

@Michal-Mikolas, thank you for your patience.

Here’s a working version of your initial example.

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew, LLM

llm=LLM(
    model="groq/llama-3.3-70b-versatile",
	  api_key=GROQ_API_KEY,
)

translator = Agent(
	role='Translator',
	goal="To translate given {word} from English to French.",
	backstory=(
		"You are professional translator. You can translate from English to French and vice versa."
	),
	llm=llm,
	verbose=True,
)

translate = Task(
	description="Translate given word from English to French.",
	agent=translator,
	expected_output='translated word',
)

crew = Crew(
	agents=[translator],
	tasks=[translate],
	verbose=True,
)

result = crew.kickoff(inputs={'word': 'programming'})  # translate word "programming" to French
print(result)

The key is to pass the input varibale to the agent as well: {word}. Also, you don’t need to use langchain_groq package anymore since it’s built in with LiteLLM now.
