Agno Cookbooks

Hundreds of examples. Copy, paste, run.

Where to Start

New to Agno? Start with 00_quickstart — it walks you through the fundamentals, with each cookbook building on the last.

Want to see something real? Jump to 01_demo — advanced use cases. Run the examples, break them, learn from them.

Want to build something complete? Browse examples — small products you can run and point your AI apps at. Two files per folder: one builds the agent and serves it, test.py drives it from the command line.

Want to explore a particular topic? Find your use case below.

Build by Use Case

I want to build a single agent

02_agents — The atomic unit of Agno. Start here for tools, RAG, structured outputs, multimodal, guardrails, and more.

I want agents working together

03_teams — Coordinate multiple agents. Async flows, shared memory, distributed RAG, reasoning patterns.

I want to orchestrate complex processes

04_workflows — Chain agents, teams, and functions into automated pipelines.

I want to deploy and manage agents

05_agent_os — Deploy to web APIs, Slack, WhatsApp, and more. The control plane for your agent systems.

Deep Dives

Storage

06_storage — Give your agents persistent storage. Postgres and SQLite recommended. Also supports DynamoDB, Firestore, MongoDB, Redis, SingleStore, SurrealDB, Valkey, and more.

Knowledge & RAG

07_knowledge — Give your agents information to search at runtime. Covers chunking strategies (semantic, recursive, agentic), embedders, vector databases, hybrid search, and loading from URLs, S3, GCS, YouTube, PDFs, and more.

Learning

08_learning — Unified learning system for agents. Decision logging, preference tracking, and continuous improvement.

Evals

09_evals — Measure what matters: accuracy (LLM-as-judge), performance (latency, memory), reliability (expected tool calls), and agent-as-judge patterns.

Reasoning

10_reasoning — Make agents think before they act. Three approaches:

• Reasoning models — Use models pre-trained for reasoning (o1, o3, etc.)
• Reasoning tools — Give the agent tools that enable reasoning (think, analyze)
• Reasoning harness — Set reasoning=True for chain-of-thought with tool use

Memory

11_memory — Agents that remember. Store insights and facts about users across conversations for personalized responses.

Context

12_context — Plug an external source into an agent as a natural-language tool. Local directories, project workspaces, the web via Exa, databases, Slack, Google Drive, and MCP servers, all behind one ContextProvider API.

FileSystem

13_filesystem — Give your agent a durable, private filesystem for its own working state: records of what it has processed, decisions, progress checkpoints. Database-backed by default, local disk optional.

Models

90_models — 40+ model providers. Gemini, Claude, GPT, Llama, Mistral, DeepSeek, Groq, Ollama, vLLM — if it exists, we probably support it.

Tools

91_tools — Extend what agents can do. Web search, SQL, email, APIs, MCP, Discord, Slack, Docker, and custom tools with the @tool decorator.

Components as Config

93_components — Save agents, teams and workflows to a database and load them back, so a running system can be versioned, shared and restored.

Environments

environments — Verification and dataset generation. Run an agent K times against hard tasks, score every attempt, read the pass-rate grid, and export the passing trajectories as a fine-tuning dataset.

Data Labeling

data_labeling — Agents for labeling, classification, and synthetic data generation, from single-label prompts to juries and DPO pair generation.

Other Frameworks

frameworks — Run LangGraph, DSPy, the Claude Agent SDK and Antigravity agents inside Agno, and serve them from the same AgentOS as your native agents.

Integrations

integrations — Partner integrations. Parallel for web-scale search, extraction, and deep research; SurrealDB for agent memory.

Gemini 3

gemini_3 — The same progressive build as the quickstart, on Google Gemini end to end.

Observability

observability — Trace and monitor agents, teams, and workflows: Langfuse, Arize Phoenix, AgentOps, LangSmith, MLflow, Weave, Logfire, and more (via OpenInference, OpenLIT, and autolog).

Quality Standard

Every folder of runnable examples carries a TEST_LOG.md recording what was run and what came back, and every example file opens with a docstring saying what it is and how to run it. Add a README.md where a folder needs more than its files can say: prerequisites, a service to start, an ordering to follow. Conventions live in STYLE_GUIDE.md.

Check cookbook Python structure pattern:

python3 cookbook/scripts/check_cookbook_pattern.py --base-dir cookbook/00_quickstart

Run a folder of cookbooks non-interactively (uses .venvs/demo/bin/python unless you pass --python-bin):

python3 cookbook/scripts/cookbook_runner.py cookbook/00_quickstart

Write machine-readable run report:

python3 cookbook/scripts/cookbook_runner.py cookbook/00_quickstart --json-report .context/cookbook-run.json
