Set up your virtual environment
uv venv --python 3.12
source .venv/bin/activate
uv venv --python 3.12
.venv\Scripts\activate
3
Install dependencies
uv pip install -U agno openai pyjwt ddgs "fastapi[standard]" uvicorn sqlalchemy pgvector psycopg
4
Export API and JWT keys
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your_openai_api_key_here"
export JWT_VERIFICATION_KEY="$(python -c 'import secrets; print(secrets.token_hex(32))')"
$Env:OPENAI_API_KEY="your_openai_api_key_here"

Setup PostgreSQL Database
docker run -d \
--name agno-postgres \
-e POSTGRES_DB=ai \
-e POSTGRES_USER=ai \
-e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=ai \
-p 5532:5432 \
pgvector/pgvector:pg17

Run the AgentOS
python advanced_scopes.py

Test Different Access Levels
Copy the complete local test tokens printed by the server into the variables below.
# Limited user sees only 2 agents (not admin-agent)
export LIMITED_TOKEN="<limited_user_token>"
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIMITED_TOKEN" http://localhost:7777/agents
# Read-only user cannot run agents (403 Forbidden)
export READONLY_TOKEN="<readonly_user_token>"
curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $READONLY_TOKEN" \
-F "message=test" http://localhost:7777/agents/web-search-agent/runs
# Wildcard user can run any agent including admin-agent
export WILDCARD_TOKEN="<wildcard_user_token>"
curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $WILDCARD_TOKEN" \
-F "message=Hello" http://localhost:7777/agents/admin-agent/runs
