SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Setting up dependencies for multiple AI agents often leads to version conflicts and leaked API keys. This Skill standardizes the creation of isolated Python projects per agent, so each agent has its own virtual environment, pinned dependencies, and safely managed credentials. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Isolated Agent Projects: Creates one uv-managed Python project per agent so dependencies never interfere across agents. - Provider-Specific Dependencies: Installs only the packages each agent needs, such as openai, groq, ollama, lancedb, or the FastAPI extras for AgentOS. - Secure Secret Management: Defines .env and .env.example patterns with python-dotenv loading, plus .gitignore rules that keep keys out of version control. - Use Case: When starting a new Agno agent that calls the Groq API, use this Skill to scaffold the project, add only the groq dependency, pin versions with uv lock, and load the API key from a .env file. ## Quick Start Set up a new isolated Agno agent project named support-bot with uv, add the agno and groq dependencies, and create the .env.example file for API keys.

Frequently Asked Questions about agno-environment-setup

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up an isolated Python environment for an Agno agent?▼

Run uv init agents/<agent-name>, then cd into it and run uv add agno python-dotenv. Each agent gets its own uv-managed project and virtual environment, so dependencies never conflict between agents.

How do I manage API keys for OpenAI or Groq in an Agno project?▼

Store keys in a .env file that is never committed, and commit a .env.example with empty values instead. Load them in code with python-dotenv's load_dotenv() and read them via os.getenv, never hardcoding secrets.

What Python version does Agno v2 require?▼

Agno v2 requires Python 3.9 or higher. You also need the uv package manager installed, which on Windows can be installed via the PowerShell install script from astral.sh.

Which dependencies do I need for RAG or serving an Agno agent as an API?▼

For RAG with a vector database, add lancedb and tantivy. To serve the agent as a FastAPI service through AgentOS, add agno with the fastapi extra plus uvicorn. Install only what the agent actually uses.

Can I share one virtual environment across multiple Agno agents?▼

No, each agent must have its own isolated project and virtual environment. Reusing another agent's .venv causes dependency conflicts and breaks reproducibility, which the uv lock file is meant to guarantee.
