Usage

1. Set up your virtual environment

   Mac

   uv venv --python 3.12
   source .venv/bin/activate
   
2. Set your API key

   export CEREBRAS_API_KEY=xxx
   
3. Install dependencies

   uv pip install -U agno sqlalchemy pgvector pypdf cerebras_cloud_sdk
   
4. Start your Postgres server

   Ensure your Postgres server is running and accessible at the connection string used in db_url.

5. Run Agent (first time)

   The first run will load and index the PDF. This may take a while.

   Mac

6. Subsequent Runs

   After the first run, comment out or remove knowledge_base.load(recreate=True) to avoid reloading the PDF each time.
