voltagent

⚡ Quick Start

Create a new VoltAgent project in seconds using the create-voltagent-app CLI tool:

npm create voltagent-app@latest

This command guides you through setup.

You'll see the starter code in src/index.ts, which now registers both an agent and a comprehensive workflow example found in src/workflows/index.ts.

import { VoltAgent, Agent, Memory } from "@voltagent/core";
import { LibSQLMemoryAdapter } from "@voltagent/libsql";
import { createPinoLogger } from "@voltagent/logger";
import { honoServer } from "@voltagent/server-hono";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { expenseApprovalWorkflow } from "./workflows";
import { weatherTool } from "./tools";

// Create a logger instance
const logger = createPinoLogger({
  name: "my-agent-app",
  level: "info",
});

// Optional persistent memory (remove to use default in-memory)
const memory = new Memory({
  storage: new LibSQLMemoryAdapter({ url: "file:./.voltagent/memory.db" }),
});

// A simple, general-purpose agent for the project.
const agent = new Agent({
  name: "my-agent",
  instructions: "A helpful assistant that can check weather and help with various tasks",
  model: openai("gpt-4o-mini"),
  tools: [weatherTool],
  memory,
});

// Initialize VoltAgent with your agent(s) and workflow(s)
new VoltAgent({
  agents: {
    agent,
  },
  workflows: {
    expenseApprovalWorkflow,
  },
  server: honoServer(),
  logger,
});

Afterwards, navigate to your project and run:

npm run dev

When you run the dev command, tsx will compile and run your code. You should see the VoltAgent server startup message in your terminal:

══════════════════════════════════════════════════
VOLTAGENT SERVER STARTED SUCCESSFULLY
══════════════════════════════════════════════════
✓ HTTP Server: http://localhost:3141

Test your agents with VoltOps Console: https://console.voltagent.dev
══════════════════════════════════════════════════

Your agent is now running! To interact with it:

1. Open the Console: Click the VoltOps LLM Observability Platform link in your terminal output (or copy-paste it into your browser).
2. Find Your Agent: On the VoltOps LLM Observability Platform page, you should see your agent listed (e.g., "my-agent").
3. Open Agent Details: Click on your agent's name.
4. Start Chatting: On the agent detail page, click the chat icon in the bottom right corner to open the chat window.
5. Send a Message: Type a message like "Hello" and press Enter.

Deployment

Deploy your agents to production with one-click GitHub integration and managed infrastructure.
