Steam Toolkit

Steam (Wikipedia) is a video game digital distribution service and storefront developed by Valve Corporation. It provides game updates automatically for Valve's games, and expanded to distributing third-party titles. Steam offers various features, like game server matchmaking with Valve Anti-Cheat measures, social networking, and game streaming services.

Steam is the ultimate destination for playing, discussing, and creating games.

Steam toolkit has two tools:

  • Game Details
  • Recommended Games

This notebook provides a walkthrough of using Steam API with LangChain to retrieve Steam game recommendations based on your current Steam Game Inventory or to gather information regarding some Steam Games which you provide.

Setting up​

We have to install two python libraries.

Imports​

%pip install --upgrade --quiet python-steam-api python-decouple steamspypi
Note: you may need to restart the kernel to use updated packages.

Assign Environmental Variables​

To use this toolkit, please have your OpenAI API Key, Steam API key (from here) and your own SteamID handy. Once you have received a Steam API Key, you can input it as an environmental variable below. The toolkit will read the "STEAM_KEY" API Key as an environmental variable to authenticate you so please set them here. You will also need to set your "OPENAI_API_KEY" and your "STEAM_ID".

import os

os.environ["STEAM_KEY"] = ""
os.environ["STEAM_ID"] = ""
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = ""

Initialization:​

Initialize the LLM, SteamWebAPIWrapper, SteamToolkit and most importantly the langchain agent to process your query!

Example​

from langchain_community.agent_toolkits.steam.toolkit import SteamToolkit
from langchain_community.utilities.steam import SteamWebAPIWrapper

steam = SteamWebAPIWrapper()
tools = [steam.run]
from langgraph.prebuilt import create_react_agent

agent = create_react_agent("openai:gpt-4.1-mini", tools)
API Reference:create_react_agent
events = agent.stream(
    {"messages": [("user", "can you give the information about the game Terraria?")]},
    stream_mode="values",
)
for event in events:
    event["messages"][-1].pretty_print()
