---
## Running the Agent
**These instructions assume you are in the `coagents-research-canvas/` directory**
## Running the Agent
First, install the backend dependencies:
### Python SDK
```sh
cd agent-py
poetry install
```
### JS-SDK
```sh
cd agent-js
pnpm install
```
Then, create a `.env` file inside `./agent-py` or `./agent-js` with the following:
```
OPENAI_API_KEY=...
TAVILY_API_KEY=...
LANGSMITH_API_KEY=...(JS ONLY)
```
⚠️ IMPORTANT:
Make sure the OpenAI API Key you provide, supports gpt-4o.
Then, run the demo:
### Python
```sh
poetry run demo
```
## Running the UI
First, install the dependencies:
```sh
cd ./ui
pnpm i
```
Then, create a `.env` file inside `./ui` with the following:
```
OPENAI_API_KEY=...
```
Then, run the Next.js project:
```sh
pnpm run dev
```
⚠️ IMPORTANT:
If you're using the JS agent, follow the steps and uncomment the code inside the `app/api/copilotkit/route.ts`, `remoteEndpoints` action:
```ts
//const runtime = new CopilotRuntime({
// remoteEndpoints: [
// Uncomment this if you want to use LangGraph JS, make sure to
// remove the remote action url below too.
//
// langGraphPlatformEndpoint({
// deploymentUrl: "http://localhost:8123",
// langsmithApiKey: process.env.LANGSMITH_API_KEY || "", // only used in LangGraph Platform deployments
// agents: [{
// name: "research_agentt",
// description: "Research agent"
// }]
// }),
// ],
//});
```
**Next for JS run these commands:**
- Run this command to start your LangGraph server `npx @langchain/langgraph-cli dev --host localhost --port 8123`
- Run this command to connect your Copilot Cloud Tunnel to the LangGraph server `npx copilotkit@latest dev --port 8123`
## Usage
Navigate to [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000).
# LangGraph Studio
Run LangGraph studio, then load the `./agent-py` folder into it.
# Troubleshooting
A few things to try if you are running into trouble:
1. Make sure there is no other local application server running on the 8000 port.
2. Under `/agent/research_canvas/demo.py`, change `0.0.0.0` to `127.0.0.1` or to `localhost`
