Project description

AFM CLI

PyPI version Python version License

A command-line interface for running Agent-Flavored Markdown (AFM) agents.

This package provides everything you need to run AFM agents, including:

  • afm-core: Parser, validation, and interface implementations
  • afm-langchain: LangChain-based execution backend with support for OpenAI and Anthropic

Installation

pip install afm-cli

Quick Start

1. Set your API key

export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
# or
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"

2. Create an AFM file

Create a file named agent.afm.md:

---
name: Friendly Assistant
interfaces:
  - type: consolechat
model:
  provider: openai
  name: gpt-4o

---
# Role
You are a helpful and friendly AI assistant.

# Instructions
- Be concise but thorough in your responses
- If you don't know something, say so honestly
- Always be polite and professional

3. Run the agent

afm run agent.afm.md

This will start an interactive console chat with your agent.

Usage

afm run <file>

Run an AFM agent file and start its configured interfaces.

# Run with default settings
