  • Commit message: chore(langgraph): add missing docstrings to public methods in langgraph module
  • Branch name: chore/langgraph-add-missing-docstrings

Background and Context

Several methods in the langgraph module are missing docstrings, reducing code readability and making it harder for contributors to understand the module's API without reading the full implementation.

The confirmed instance is _run_async_safely at line 124 of src/cleveragents/langgraph/bridge.py. A broader audit of the module may reveal additional methods and functions that also lack docstrings.

Python docstrings are the primary mechanism for in-code API documentation and are surfaced by tools such as help(), IDEs, and documentation generators (e.g. Sphinx). Their absence increases the cognitive load for contributors and makes automated documentation incomplete.

Impacted component: langgraph

Expected Behavior

All public methods and functions in the langgraph module have docstrings that explain:

  • Their purpose / what they do
  • Their arguments (name, type, meaning)
  • Their return value (type and meaning)
  • Any exceptions they may raise (where relevant)

Acceptance Criteria

  • _run_async_safely in src/cleveragents/langgraph/bridge.py (line 124) has a complete docstring covering purpose, arguments, return value, and raised exceptions.
  • A full audit of all public methods and functions in src/cleveragents/langgraph/ is performed and any additional missing docstrings are identified.
  • All identified missing docstrings are added following the project's docstring style (Google-style or existing convention in the module).
  • No existing tests are broken by the changes.
  • nox / CI pipeline passes after the changes.

Subtasks

  • Audit src/cleveragents/langgraph/bridge.py for all public methods/functions missing docstrings.
  • Audit remaining files in src/cleveragents/langgraph/ for missing docstrings.
  • Add a docstring to _run_async_safely at line 124 of bridge.py.
  • Add docstrings to any other identified methods/functions lacking them.
  • Verify docstring style is consistent with the rest of the module (Google-style or project convention).
  • Run nox locally to confirm all tests pass and no regressions are introduced.
  • Open a PR referencing this issue.

Definition of Done

This issue should be closed when:

  1. All public methods and functions in src/cleveragents/langgraph/ have docstrings that describe their purpose, arguments, return values, and raised exceptions.
  2. The docstring style is consistent with the project convention.
  3. All existing tests continue to pass.
  4. The change is merged to the main branch via a reviewed PR.
