## A personal, organic agentic framework that grows and learns with you
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Agent Zero is not a predefined agentic framework. It is designed to be dynamic, organically growing, and learning as you use it.
|
|||
|
|
- Agent Zero is fully transparent, readable, comprehensible, customizable, and interactive.
|
|||
|
|
- Agent Zero uses the computer as a tool to accomplish its (your) tasks.
|
|||
|
|

### âš¡ Quick Start
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```bash
|
|||
|
|
# Pull and run with Docker
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
docker pull agent0ai/agent-zero
|
|||

# 💡 Key Features
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **General-purpose Assistant**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Agent Zero is not pre-programmed for specific tasks (but can be). It is meant to be a general-purpose personal assistant. Give it a task, and it will gather information, execute commands and code, cooperate with other agent instances, and do its best to accomplish it.
|
|||
|
|
- It has a persistent memory, allowing it to memorize previous solutions, code, facts, instructions, etc., to solve tasks faster and more reliably in the future.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2. **Computer as a Tool**”Œtype”h uŒ__pydantic_extra__”NŒ__pydantic_fields_set__”�”(hh h�Œ__pydantic_private__”NubŒ
|
|||
|
|

|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|
}”(hh&h}”(hhhhhhhhhhhˆh Nhh&h h uh X" 
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2. **Computer as a Tool**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Agent Zero uses the operating system as a tool to accomplish its tasks. It has no single-purpose tools pre-programmed. Instead, it can write its own code and use the terminal to create and use its own tools as needed.
|
|||
|
|
- The only default tools in its arsenal are online search, memory features, communication (with the user and other agents), and code/terminal execution. Everything else is created by the agent itself or can be extended by the user.
|
|||
|
|
- Tool usage functionality has been developed from scratch to be the most compatible and reliable, even with very small models.
|
|||
|
|
- **Default Tools:** Agent Zero includes tools like knowledge, code execution, and communication.
|
|||
|
|
- **Creating Custom Tools:** Extend Agent Zero's functionality by creating your own custom tools.
|
|||
|
|
- **Skills (SKILL.md Standard):** Skills are contextual expertise loaded dynamically when relevant. They use the open SKILL.md standard (developed by Anthropic), making them compatible with Claude Code, Cursor, Goose, OpenAI Codex CLI, and GitHub Copilot.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
3. **Multi-agent Cooperation**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Every agent has a superior agent giving it tasks and instructions. Every agent then reports back to its superior.
|
|||
|
|
- In the case of the first agent in the chain (Agent 0), the superior is the human user; the agent sees no difference.
|
|||
|
|
- Every agent can create its subordinate agent to help break down and solve subtasks. This helps all agents keep their context clean and focused.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
4. **Completely Customizable and Extensible**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Almost nothing in this framework is hard-coded. Nothing is hidden. Everything can be extended or changed by the user.
|
|||
|
|
- The whole behavior is defined by a system prompt in the **prompts/default/agent.system.md** file. Change this prompt and change the framework dramatically.
|
|||
|
|
- The framework does not guide or limit the agent in any way. There are no hard-coded rails that agents have to follow.
|
|||
|
|
- Every prompt, every small message template sent to the agent in its communication loop can be found in the **prompts/** folder and changed.
|
|||
|
|
- Every default tool can be found in the **python/tools/** folder and changed or copied to create new predefined tools.
|
|||
|
|
- **Automated configuration** via `A0_SET_` environment variables for deployment automation and easy setup.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
5. **Communication is Key**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Give your agent a proper system prompt and instructions, and it can do miracles.
|
|||
|
|
- Agents can communicate with their superiors and subordinates, asking questions, giving instructions, and providing guidance. Instruct your agents in the system prompt on how to communicate effectively.
|
|||
|
|
- The terminal interface is real-time streamed and interactive. You can stop and intervene at any point. If you see your agent heading in the wrong direction, just stop and tell it right away.
|
|||
|
|
- There is a lot of freedom in this framework. You can instruct your agents to regularly report back to superiors asking for permission to continue. You can instruct them to use point-scoring systems when deciding when to delegate subtasks. Superiors can double-check subordinates' results and dispute. The possibilities are endless.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||

## 🚀 Real-world use cases
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Financial Analysis & Charting** - `"Find last month's Bitcoin/USD price trend, correlate with major cryptocurrency news events, generate annotated chart with highlighted key dates"`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Excel Automation Pipeline** - `"Scan incoming directory for financial spreadsheets, validate and clean data, consolidate from multiple sources, generate executive reports with flagged anomalies"`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **API Integration Without Code** - `"Use this Google Gemini API snippet to generate product images, remember the integration for future use"` - agent learns and stores the solution in memory”h!h uh"Nh#�”(hh h�h%NubŒ

|
}”(hh-h}”(hhhhhhhhhhhˆh Nhh-h h uh X� - **API Integration Without Code** - `"Use this Google Gemini API snippet to generate product images, remember the integration for future use"` - agent learns and stores the solution in memory
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Automated Server Monitoring** - `"Check server status every 30 minutes: CPU usage, disk space, memory. Alert if metrics exceed thresholds"` (scheduled task with project-scoped credentials)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Multi-Client Project Isolation** - Separate projects for each client with isolated memory, custom instructions, and dedicated secrets - prevents context bleed across sensitive work
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
|
## � Fully Dockerized, with Speech-to-Text and TTS
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Customizable settings allow users to tailor the agent's behavior and responses to their needs.
|
|||
|
|
- The Web UI output is very clean, fluid, colorful, readable, and interactive; nothing is hidden.
|
|||
|
|
- You can load or save chats directly within the Web UI.
|
|||
|
|
- The same output you see in the terminal is automatically saved to an HTML file in **logs/** folder for every session.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Agent output is streamed in real-time, allowing users to read along and intervene at any time.
|
|||
|
|
- No coding is required; only prompting and communication skills are necessary.
|
|||
|
|
- With a solid system prompt, the framework is reliable even with small models, including precise tool usage.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## 👀 Keep in Mind
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **Agent Zero Can Be Dangerous!**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- With proper instruction, Agent Zero is capable of many things, even potentially dangerous actions concerning your computer, data, or accounts. Always run Agent Zero in an isolated environment (like Docker) and be careful what you wish for.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2. **Agent Zero Is Prompt-based.**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- The whole framework is guided by the **prompts/** folder. Agent guidelines, tool instructions, messages, utility AI functions, it's all there.

## **Goal:** Go from zero to a first working chat with minimal setup.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Step 1: Install Docker Desktop
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Docker Desktop provides the runtime environment for Agent Zero, ensuring consistent behavior and security across platforms. The entire framework runs within a Docker container, providing isolation and easy deployment.

|
|
**1.1. Choose Installation Method**
|
|||
|
|
|

|
|||
|
|
|
|||

|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**1.2. Post-Installation Steps (docker-ce only)**

## Step 2: Run Agent Zero
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### 2.1. Pull the Agent Zero Docker Image
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Using Docker Desktop GUI:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Search for `agent0ai/agent-zero` in Docker Desktop
|
|||
|
|
- Click the `Pull` button
|
|||
|
|
- The image will be downloaded to your machine in a few minutes
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Using Terminal:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```bash
|
|||
|
|
docker pull agent0ai/agent-zero
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### 2.2. (Optional) Map Folders for Persistence
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Choose or create a folder on your computer where Agent Zero will save its data.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Setting up persistence is needed only if you want your data and files to remain available even after you delete the container.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
You can pick any location you find convenient:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Windows:** `C:\agent-zero-data`
|
|||
|
|
- **macOS/Linux:** `/home/user/agent-zero-data`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
You can map just the `/a0/usr` directory (recommended) or individual subfolders of `/a0` to a local directory.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!CAUTION]
|
|||
|
|
> Do **not** map the entire `/a0` directory: it contains the application code and can break upgrades.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|||
|
|
> Choose a location that's easy to access and backup. All your Agent Zero data will be directly accessible in this directory.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### 2.3. Run the Container
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Using Docker Desktop GUI:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- In Docker Desktop, go to the "Images" tab
|
|||
|
|
- Click the `Run` button next to the `agent0ai/agent-zero` image
|
|||
|
|
- Open the "Optional settings" menu
|
|||
|
|
- **Ensure at least one host port is mapped to container port `80`** (set host port to `0` for automatic assignment)
|
|||
|
|
- Click the `Run` button
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The container will start and show in the "Containers" tab:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### 2.4. Access the Web UI
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The framework will take a few seconds to initialize. Find the mapped port in Docker Desktop (shown as `<PORT>:80`) or click the port right under the container ID:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Open `http://localhost:<PORT>` in your browser. The Web UI will open - Agent Zero is ready for configuration!
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|||
|
|
> You can also access the Web UI by clicking the port link directly under the container ID in Docker Desktop.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|||
|
|
> After starting the container, you'll find all Agent Zero files in your chosen directory. You can access and edit these files directly on your machine, and the changes will be immediately reflected in the running container.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Running A0 using Terminal?**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```bash
|
|||
|
|
docker run -p 0:80 -v /path/to/your/work_dir:/a0/usr agent0ai/agent-zero
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Replace `0` with a fixed port if you prefer (e.g., `50080:80`)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
---
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Step 3: Configure Agent Zero
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The UI will show a warning banner "Missing LLM API Key for current settings". Click on `Add your API key` to enter Settings and start configuring A0.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Settings Configuration
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Agent Zero provides a comprehensive settings interface to customize various aspects of its functionality. Access the settings by clicking the "Settings" button with a gear icon in the sidebar.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Agent Configuration
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Agent Profile:** Select the agent profile (e.g., `agent0`, `hacker`, `researcher`). Profiles can override prompts, tools, and extensions.
|
|||
|
|
- **Memory Subdirectory:** Select the subdirectory for agent memory storage, allowing separation between different instances.
|
|||
|
|
- **Knowledge Subdirectory:** Specify the location of custom knowledge files to enhance the agent's understanding.”h!h uh"Nh#�”(hh h�h%NubŒ

### Chat Model Settings
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Provider:** Select the chat model provider (e.g., Anthropic)
|
|||
|
|
- **Model Name:** Choose the specific model (e.g., claude-sonnet-4-5)
|
|||
|
|
- **Context Length:** Set the maximum token limit for context window
|
|||
|
|
- **Context Window Space:** Configure how much of the context window is dedicated to chat history
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Model naming is provider-specific.**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Use `claude-sonnet-4-5` for Anthropic, but use `anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5` for OpenRouter. If you see "Invalid model ID," verify the provider and naming format on the provider website, or search the web for "<name-of-ai-model> model naming".
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|||
|
|
> **Context window tuning:** Set the total context window size first (for example, 100k), then adjust the chat history portion as a fraction of that total. A large fraction on a very large context window can still be enormous.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|||
|
|
> **API URL:** URL of the API endpoint for the chat model - only needed for some providers like Ollama, LM Studio, Azure, etc.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Utility Model Configuration
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Provider & Model:** Select a model for utility tasks like memory organization and summarization
|
|||
|
|
- **Temperature:** Adjust the determinism of utility responses
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|||
|
|
> Utility models need to be strong enough to extract and consolidate memory reliably. Very small models (e.g., 4B) often fail at this; 70B-class models or high-quality cloud "flash/mini" models work best.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Embedding Model Settings [Optional]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Provider:** Choose the embedding model provider (e.g., OpenAI)
|
|||
|
|
- **Model Name:** Select the specific embedding model (e.g., text-embedding-3-small)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|||
|
|
> Agent Zero uses a local embedding model by default (runs on CPU), but you can switch to OpenAI embeddings like `text-embedding-3-small` or `text-embedding-3-large` if preferred.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Speech to Text Options
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Model Size:** Choose the speech recognition model size
|
|||
|
|
- **Language Code:** Set the primary language for voice recognition
|
|||
|
|
- **Silence Settings:** Configure silence threshold, duration, and timeout parameters for voice input
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### API Keys
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Configure API keys for various service providers directly within the Web UI. Click `Save` to confirm your settings.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|||
|
|
> **OpenAI API vs Plus subscription:** A ChatGPT Plus subscription does not include API credits. You must provide a separate API key for OpenAI usage in Agent Zero.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|||
|
|
> For OpenAI-compatible providers (e.g., custom gateways or Z.AI/GLM), add the API key under **External Services → Other OpenAI-compatible API keys**, then select **OpenAI Compatible** as the provider in model settings.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!CAUTION]
|
|||
|
|
> **GitHub Copilot Provider:** When using the GitHub Copilot provider, after selecting the model and entering your first prompt, the OAuth login procedure will begin. You'll find the authentication code and link in the output logs. Complete the authentication process by following the provided link and entering the code, then you may continue using Agent Zero.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Authentication
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **UI Login:** Set username for web interface access
|
|||
|
|
- **UI Password:** Configure password for web interface security
|
|||
|
|
- **Root Password:** Manage Docker container root password for SSH access
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|

## Choosing Your LLMs
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The Settings page is the control center for selecting the Large Language Models (LLMs) that power Agent Zero. You can choose different LLMs for different roles:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| LLM Role | Description |
|
|||
|
|
| --- | --- |
|
|||
|
|
| `chat_llm` | This is the primary LLM used for conversations and generating responses. |
|
|||
|
|
| `utility_llm` | This LLM handles internal tasks like summarizing messages, managing memory, and processing internal prompts. Using a smaller, less expensive model here can improve efficiency. |
|
|||
|
|
| `browser_llm` | This LLM powers the browser agent for web navigation and interaction tasks. Vision support is recommended for better page understanding. |
|
|||
|
|
| `embedding_llm` | The embedding model shipped with A0 runs on CPU and is responsible for generating embeddings used for memory retrieval and knowledge base lookups. Changing the `embedding_llm` will re-index all of A0's memory. |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**How to Change:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. Open Settings page in the Web UI.
|
|||
|
|
2. Choose the provider for the LLM for each role (Chat model, Utility model, Browser model, Embedding model) and write the model name.
|
|||
|
|
3. Click "Save" to apply the changes.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Important Considerations
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### Model Naming by Provider
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Use the naming format required by your selected provider:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Provider | Model Name Format | Example |
|
|||
|
|
| --- | --- | --- |
|
|||
|
|
| OpenAI | Model name only | `claude-sonnet-4-5` |
|
|||
|
|
| OpenRouter | Provider prefix mostly required | `anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5` |
|
|||
|
|
| Ollama | Model name only | `gpt-oss:20b` |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|||
|
|
> If you see "Invalid model ID," verify the provider and naming format on the provider website, or search the web for "<name-of-ai-model> model naming".
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### Context Window & Memory Split
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Set the **total context window** (e.g., 100k) first.
|
|||
|
|
- Then tune the **chat history portion** as a fraction of that total.
|
|||
|
|
- Extremely large totals can make even small fractions very large; adjust thoughtfully.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### Utility Model Guidance
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Utility models handle summarization and memory extraction.
|
|||
|
|
- Very small models (≈4B) usually fail at reliable context extraction.
|
|||
|
|
- Aim for ~70B class models or strong cloud "flash/mini" models for better results.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### Reasoning/Thinking Models
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Reasoning can increase cost and latency. Some models perform better **without** reasoning.
|
|||
|
|
- If a model supports it, disable reasoning via provider-specific parameters (e.g., Venice `disable_thinking=true`).

|
### Pulling Models
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Finding Model Names:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Visit the [Ollama model library](https://ollama.com/library) for a list of available models and their corresponding names. Ollama models are referenced by **model name only** (for example, `llama3.2`).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Pull a model:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```bash
|
|||
|
|
ollama pull <model-name>
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Replace `<model-name>` with the name of the model you want to use. For example: `ollama pull mistral-large`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Configuring Ollama in Agent Zero
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. Once you've downloaded your model(s), select it in the Settings page of the GUI.
|
|||
|
|
2. Within the Chat model, Utility model, or Embedding model section, choose **Ollama** as provider.
|
|||
|
|
3. Write your model code as expected by Ollama, in the format `llama3.2` or `qwen2.5:7b`
|
|||
|
|
4. Provide your API base URL to your Ollama API endpoint, usually `http://host.docker.internal:11434`
|
|||
|
|
5. Click `Save` to confirm your settings.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|||
|
|
> If Agent Zero runs in Docker and Ollama runs on the host, ensure port **11434** is reachable from the container. If both services are in the same Docker network, you can use `http://<container_name>:11434` instead of `host.docker.internal`.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Managing Downloaded Models
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Listing downloaded models:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```bash
|
|||
|
|
ollama list
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Removing a model:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```bash
|
|||
|
|
ollama rm <model-name>
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|||
|
|
> Experiment with different model combinations to find the balance of performance and cost that best suits your needs. E.g., faster and lower latency LLMs will help, and you can also use `faiss_gpu` instead of `faiss_cpu` for the memory.

## How to Update Agent Zero
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|||
|
|
> Since v0.9, Agent Zero includes a Backup & Restore workflow in the Settings UI. This is the **safest** way to upgrade Docker instances.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Recommended Update Process (Docker)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **Keep the old container running** and note its port.
|
|||
|
|
2. **Pull the new image** (`agent0ai/agent-zero:latest`).
|
|||
|
|
3. **Start a new container** on a different host port.
|
|||
|
|
4. In the **old** instance, open **Settings → Backup & Restore** and create a backup.
|
|||
|
|
5. In the **new** instance, restore that backup from the same panel.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|||
|
|
> If the new instance fails to load settings, remove `/a0/usr/settings.json` and restart to regenerate default settings.

## Using Agent Zero on Your Mobile Device
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Agent Zero can be accessed from mobile devices and other computers using the built-in **Tunnel feature**.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Recommended: Using Tunnel (Remote Access)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The Tunnel feature allows secure access to your Agent Zero instance from anywhere:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. Open Settings in the Web UI
|
|||
|
|
2. Navigate to the **External Services** tab
|
|||
|
|
3. Click on **Flare Tunnel** in the navigation menu
|
|||
|
|
4. Click **Create Tunnel** to generate a secure HTTPS URL
|
|||
|
|
5. Share this URL to access Agent Zero from any device
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
|||
|
|
> **Security:** Always set a username and password in Settings → Authentication before creating a tunnel to secure your instance on the internet.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
For complete details on tunnel configuration and security considerations, see the [Remote Access via Tunneling](../guides/usage.md#remote-access-via-tunneling) section in the Usage Guide.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Alternative: Local Network Access
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If you prefer to keep access limited to your local network:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. Find the mapped port in Docker Desktop (format: `<PORT>:80`, e.g., `32771:80`)
|
|||
|
|
2. Access from the same computer: `http://localhost:<PORT>`
|
|||
|
|
3. Access from other devices on the network: `http://<YOUR_COMPUTER_IP>:<PORT>`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|||
|
|
> Find your computer's IP address with `ipconfig` (Windows) or `ifconfig`/`ip addr` (macOS/Linux). It's usually in the format `192.168.x.x` or `10.0.x.x`.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
For developers or users who need to run Agent Zero directly on their system, see the [In-Depth Guide for Full Binaries Installation](dev-setup.md).

|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Advanced: Automated Configuration via Environment Variables
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Agent Zero settings can be automatically configured using environment variables with the `A0_SET_` prefix in your `.env` file. This enables automated deployments without manual configuration.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Usage:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Add variables to your `.env` file in the format:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```env
|
|||
|
|
A0_SET_{setting_name}={value}
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Examples:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```env
|
|||
|
|
# Model configuration
|
|||
|
|
A0_SET_chat_model_provider=anthropic
|
|||
|
|
A0_SET_chat_model_name=claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022
|
|||
|
|
A0_SET_chat_model_ctx_length=200000
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
# Memory settings
|
|||
|
|
A0_SET_memory_recall_enabled=true
|
|||
|
|
A0_SET_memory_recall_interval=5
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
# Agent configuration
|
|||
|
|
A0_SET_agent_profile=custom
|
|||
|
|
A0_SET_agent_memory_subdir=production
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Docker usage:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When running Docker, you can pass these as environment variables:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```bash
|
|||
|
|
docker run -p 50080:80 \
|
|||
|
|
-e A0_SET_chat_model_provider=anthropic \
|
|||
|
|
-e A0_SET_chat_model_name=claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022 \
|
|||
|
|
agent0ai/agent-zero
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
