kaze-agent-base 0.1.1

Reusable ADK-based agent infrastructure — plugin loader, background workflow engine, FastAPI server, memory service.

kaze-agent-base

Reusable ADK-based agent infrastructure — plugin loader, background workflow engine, FastAPI server, memory service, LLM wrapper with trace propagation.

Extracted from kaze-agent-ops so other agents can be built on the same framework.

Install

pip install kaze-agent-base
# Optional extras:
pip install "kaze-agent-base[memory]"    # Mem0 + pgvector
pip install "kaze-agent-base[tracing]"   # Langfuse callbacks

Build your own agent

Your agent package owns:

• plugin.yaml + tools.py files under my_agent/plugins/<name>/
• config.yaml listing models and specialists
• A package __init__.py that builds the workflow
• An entrypoint script that calls create_app(...)

def main():
    app, host, port = create_app(

        agents_dir=Path(__file__).resolve().parents[1],
        title="My Agent API",
        description="…",
        version="0.1.0",
    )
    run(app, host, port)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Wire up a [project.scripts] entry (e.g., my-agent-serve = "my_agent.serve:main") and you have a deployable agent.

Environment variables

Var	Purpose	Default
KAZE_GATEWAY_URL / _API_KEY	LLM gateway endpoint	http://localhost:4200
KAZE_CONFIG_PATH	Path to config.yaml	./config.yaml
KAZE_PLUGINS_ROOT / KAZE_PLUGINS_PACKAGE	Plugin location	(required; pass args or env)
KAZE_APP_NAME	ADK app name	kaze_app
KAZE_DATA_DIR	SQLite location	.adk/
KAZE_A2A_HOST / KAZE_A2A_PORT	Server bind	0.0.0.0:8080
KAZE_MEM0_*	Mem0 config (see state/memory.py)	—
LANGFUSE_*	Tracing (optional)	—
AGENT_API_KEY	Bearer token for /api/v1/*	—

The KAZE_ prefix is historical; downstream agents can use the same prefix or layer on their own env vars.
