Usage

1

Set up your virtual environment

uv venv --python 3.12
source .venv/bin/activate
2

Set your API key

export IBM_WATSONX_API_KEY=xxx
export IBM_WATSONX_PROJECT_ID=xxx
3

Install dependencies

uv pip install -U ibm-watsonx-ai agno
4

Run Agent

python cookbook/11_models/ibm/watsonx/async_basic_stream.py
This example combines asynchronous execution with streaming. It creates an agent with debug_mode=True for additional logging and uses the asynchronous API with streaming to get and display responses as they’re generated.
