Welcome to the ultimate guide for starting a new CrewAI project. This document will walk you through the steps to create, customize, and run your CrewAI project, ensuring you have everything you need to get started.
Beforre we start there are a couple of things to note:
1. CrewAI is a Python package and requires Python >=3.10 and <=3.13 to run.
2. The preferred way of setting up CrewAI is using the `crewai create` command.This will create a new project folder and install a skeleton template for you to work on.
## Prerequisites
We assume you have already installed CrewAI. If not, please refer to the [installation guide](https://docs.crewai.com/how-to/Installing-CrewAI/) to install CrewAI and its dependencies.
Before getting started with CrewAI, make sure that you have installed it via pip:
```shell
$ pip install crewai crewi-tools
```
### Virtual Environemnts
It is highly recommended that you use virtual environments to ensure that your CrewAI project is isolated from other projects and dependencies. Virtual environments provide a clean, separate workspace for each project, preventing conflicts between different versions of packages and libraries. This isolation is crucial for maintaining consistency and reproducibility in your development process. You have multiple options for setting up virtual environments depending on your operating system and Python version:
1. Use venv (Python's built-in virtual environment tool):
venv is included with Python 3.3 and later, making it a convenient choice for many developers. It's lightweight and easy to use, perfect for simple project setups.
To set up virtual environments with venv, refer to the official [Python documentation](https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/venv.html).
2. Use Conda (A Python virtual environment manager):
Conda is an open-source package manager and environment management system for Python. It's widely used by data scientists, developers, and researchers to manage dependencies and environments in a reproducible way.
To set up virtual environments with Conda, refer to the official [Conda documentation](https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/stable/user-guide/getting-started.html).
3. Use Poetry (A Python package manager and dependency management tool):
Poetry is an open-source Python package manager that simplifies the installation of packages and their dependencies. Poetry offers a convenient way to manage virtual environments and dependencies.
Poetry is CrewAI's prefered tool for package / dependancy management in CrewAI.
### Code IDEs
Most users of CrewAI a Code Editor / Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for building there Crews. You can use any code IDE of your choice. Seee below for some popular options for Code Editors / Integrated Development Environments (IDE):
- [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) - Most popular
- [PyCharm](https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/)
- [Cursor AI](https://cursor.com)
Pick one that suits your style and needs.
## Creating a New Project
In this example we will be using Venv as our virtual environment manager.
To create a new project, run the following CLI command:
To setup a virtual environment, run the following CLI command:
```shell
$ python3 -m venv <venv-name>
```
Activate your virtual environment by running the following CLI command:
```shell
$ source <venv-name>/bin/activate
```
Now, to create a new CrewAI project, run the following CLI command:
```shell
$ crewai create <project_name>

title: Assembling and Activating Your CrewAI Team
description: A comprehensive guide to creating a dynamic CrewAI team for your projects, with updated functionalities including verbose mode, memory capabilities, asynchronous execution, output customization, language model configuration, code execution, integration with third-party agents, and improved task management.

## Introduction
Embark on your CrewAI journey by setting up your environment and initiating your AI crew with the latest features. This guide ensures a smooth start, incorporating all recent updates for an enhanced experience, including code execution capabilities, integration with third-party agents, and advanced task management.
## Step 0: Installation
Install CrewAI and any necessary packages for your project. CrewAI is compatible with Python >=3.10,<=3.13.
```shell
pip install crewai
pip install 'crewai[tools]'
```
## Step 1: Assemble Your Agents
Define your agents with distinct roles, backstories, and enhanced capabilities. The Agent class now supports a wide range of attributes for fine-tuned control over agent behavior and interactions, including code execution and integration with third-party agents.
```python
import os
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
from crewai import Agent
from crewai_tools import SerperDevTool, BrowserbaseLoadTool, EXASearchTool
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "Your OpenAI Key"
os.environ["SERPER_API_KEY"] = "Your Serper Key"
os.environ["BROWSERBASE_API_KEY"] = "Your BrowserBase Key"
os.environ["BROWSERBASE_PROJECT_ID"] = "Your BrowserBase Project Id"
search_tool = SerperDevTool()
browser_tool = BrowserbaseLoadTool()
exa_search_tool = EXASearchTool()
# Creating a senior researcher agent with advanced configurations
researcher = Agent(
role='Senior Researcher',
goal='Uncover groundbreaking technologies in {topic}',
backstory=("Driven by curiosity, you're at the forefront of innovation, "
"eager to explore and share knowledge that could change the world."),
memory=True,
verbose=True,
allow_delegation=False,
tools=[search_tool, browser_tool],
allow_code_execution=False, # New attribute for enabling code execution
max_iter=15, # Maximum number of iterations for task execution
max_rpm=100, # Maximum requests per minute
max_execution_time=3600, # Maximum execution time in seconds
system_template="Your custom system template here", # Custom system template
prompt_template="Your custom prompt template here", # Custom prompt template
response_template="Your custom response template here", # Custom response template
)
# Creating a writer agent with custom tools and specific configurations
writer = Agent(
role='Writer',
goal='Narrate compelling tech stories about {topic}',
backstory=("With a flair for simplifying complex topics, you craft engaging "
"narratives that captivate and educate, bringing new discoveries to light."),
verbose=True,
allow_delegation=False,
memory=True,
tools=[exa_search_tool],
function_calling_llm=OpenAI(model_name="gpt-3.5-turbo"), # Separate LLM for function calling
)
# Setting a specific manager agent
manager = Agent(
role='Manager',
goal='Ensure the smooth operation and coordination of the team',
verbose=True,
backstory=(
"As a seasoned project manager, you excel in organizing "
"tasks, managing timelines, and ensuring the team stays on track."
),
allow_code_execution=True, # Enable code execution for the manager
)
```
### New Agent Attributes and Features
1. `allow_code_execution`: Enable or disable code execution capabilities for the agent (default is False).
2. `max_execution_time`: Set a maximum execution time (in seconds) for the agent to complete a task.
3. `function_calling_llm`: Specify a separate language model for function calling.
