**Python Version Requirements**
|
|
|
|
CrewAI requires `Python >=3.10 and <3.14`. Here's how to check your version:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python3 --version
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you need to update Python, visit [python.org/downloads](https://python.org/downloads)
|
|
|
|
</Note>
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
**OpenAI SDK Requirement**
|
|
|
|
CrewAI 0.175.0 requires `openai >= 1.13.3`. If you manage dependencies yourself, ensure your environment satisfies this constraint to avoid import/runtime issues.
|
|
|
|
</Note>
|
|
|
|
CrewAI uses the `uv` as its dependency management and package handling tool. It simplifies project setup and execution, offering a seamless experience.
|
|
|
|
If you haven't installed `uv` yet, follow **step 1** to quickly get it set up on your system, else you can skip to **step 2**.
|
|
|
|
<Steps>
|
|
<Step title="Install uv">
|
|
- **On macOS/Linux:**
|
|
|
|
Use `curl` to download the script and execute it with `sh`:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
|
|
```
|
|
If your system doesn't have `curl`, you can use `wget`:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
wget -qO- https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- **On Windows:**
|
|
|
|
Use `irm` to download the script and `iex` to execute it:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"
|
|
```
|
|
If you run into any issues, refer to [UV's installation guide](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/) for more information.
|
|
</Step>
|
|
|
|
<Step title="Install CrewAI 🚀">
|
|
- Run the following command to install `crewai` CLI:
|
|
```shell
|
|
uv tool install crewai
|
|
```
|
|
<Warning>
|
|
If you encounter a `PATH` warning, run this command to update your shell:
|
|
```shell
|
|
uv tool update-shell
|
|
```
|
|
</Warning>
|
|
|
|
<Warning>
|
|
If you encounter the `chroma-hnswlib==0.7.6` build error (`fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'float.h'`) on Windows, install [Visual Studio Build Tools](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/) with *Desktop development with C++*.
|
|
</Warning>
|
|
|
|
- To verify that `crewai` is installed, run:
|
|
```shell
|
|
uv tool list
|
|
```
|
|
- You should see something like:
|
|
```shell
|
|
crewai v0.102.0
|
|
- crewai
|
|
```
|
|
- If you need to update `crewai`, run:
|
|
```shell
|
|
uv tool install crewai --upgrade
|
|
```
|
|
<Check>Installation successful! You're ready to create your first crew! 🎉</Check>

# Creating a CrewAI Project
|
|
|
|
We recommend using the `YAML` template scaffolding for a structured approach to defining agents and tasks. Here's how to get started:
|
|
|
|
<Steps>
|
|
<Step title="Generate Project Scaffolding">
|
|
- Run the `crewai` CLI command:
|
|
```shell
|
|
crewai create crew <your_project_name>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- This creates a new project with the following structure:
|
|
```
|
|
my_project/
|
|
├── .gitignore
|
|
├── knowledge/
|
|
├── pyproject.toml
|
|
├── README.md
|
|
├── .env
|
|
└── src/
|
|
└── my_project/
|
|
├── __init__.py
|
|
├── main.py
|
|
├── crew.py
|
|
├── tools/
|
|
│ ├── custom_tool.py
|
|
│ └── __init__.py
|
|
└── config/
|
|
├── agents.yaml
|
|
└── tasks.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</Step>
|
|
|
|
<Step title="Customize Your Project">
|
|
- Your project will contain these essential files:
|
|
| File | Purpose |
|
|
| --- | --- |
|
|
| `agents.yaml` | Define your AI agents and their roles |
|
|
| `tasks.yaml` | Set up agent tasks and workflows |
|
|
| `.env` | Store API keys and environment variables |
|
|
| `main.py` | Project entry point and execution flow |
|
|
| `crew.py` | Crew orchestration and coordination |
|
|
| `tools/` | Directory for custom agent tools |
|
|
| `knowledge/` | Directory for knowledge base |
|
|
|
|
- Start by editing `agents.yaml` and `tasks.yaml` to define your crew's behavior.
|
|
- Keep sensitive information like API keys in `.env`.
|
|
|
|
</Step>
|
|
|
|
<Step title="Run your Crew">
|
|
- Before you run your crew, make sure to run:
|
|
```bash
|
|
crewai install
|
|
```
|
|
- If you need to install additional packages, use:
|
|
```shell
|
|
uv add <package-name>
|
|
```
|
|
- To run your crew, execute the following command in the root of your project:
|
|
```bash
|
|
crewai run
|
|
```
|
|
</Step>
|
|
</Steps>
