Agno agent provider for Pragmatiks

Agno Provider for Pragmatiks

Deploys Agno AI agents and teams to Kubernetes with reactive dependency management. Define models, tools, knowledge bases, and memory as declarative resources -- the platform handles wiring, deployment, and change propagation automatically.

Architecture

The Agno provider follows a spec pattern: most resources are stateless configuration wrappers that produce serializable specifications. Only the runner resource creates actual infrastructure.

models/openai ──┐
models/anthropic┤
                ├─→ agent ──┐
tools/mcp ──────┤           ├─→ runner ──→ Kubernetes Deployment + Service
tools/websearch─┤           │
knowledge ──────┤     team ─┘
  vectordb/qdrant       │
  knowledge/content     │
  knowledge/embedder    │
memory/manager ─┤       │
db/postgres ────┤       │
prompt ─────────┘       │
                        │
cluster (gcp/gke) ──────┘
namespace (k8s) ────────┘

How it works:

1. Configuration resources (models, tools, knowledge, etc.) resolve their dependencies and produce a serializable Spec
2. The agent or team resource aggregates all specs from its dependencies into a single AgentSpec or TeamSpec
3. The runner resource deploys the agent/team to Kubernetes by passing the spec as JSON environment variables
4. The container image reconstructs the full agent/team from the spec at startup using from_spec() factory methods
5. When any dependency changes (e.g., a model API key rotates), Pragma propagates the change through the dependency graph and redeploys automatically

Prerequisites

• A Kubernetes cluster managed by the gcp provider (gcp/gke resource)
• A Kubernetes namespace managed by the kubernetes provider
• API keys for your chosen model provider (OpenAI, Anthropic)
• An Agno runner container image (default: ghcr.io/pragmatiks/agno-runner:latest)
• For knowledge/RAG: a Qdrant vector database instance
• For memory/sessions: a PostgreSQL database instance

Installation

pragma providers install agno
