In this example, we will equip our agent with the DuckDuckGoTools toolkit. Our agent will now be able to use these tools to search the web for information:
1

Create a Python file

touch tools.py
2

Add the following code to your Python file

tools.py
from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIChat
from agno.tools.duckduckgo import DuckDuckGoTools

agent = Agent(
    model=OpenAIChat(id="gpt-5-mini"),
    tools=[DuckDuckGoTools()],
    markdown=True,
)

agent.print_response("What are the latest news in AI?")
3

Create a virtual environment

Open the Terminal and create a python virtual environment.
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
4

Install libraries

pip install -U agno openai ddgs
5

Export your OpenAI API key

  export OPENAI_API_KEY="your_openai_api_key_here"
6

Run Agent

python tools.py
