agenta
LLM prompt management and evaluation platform. Version prompts, run A/B tests, evaluate with metrics, and deploy with confidence using Agenta's self-hosted solution.
Best use case
agenta is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
LLM prompt management and evaluation platform. Version prompts, run A/B tests, evaluate with metrics, and deploy with confidence using Agenta's self-hosted solution.
Teams using agenta should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Agenta
## Quick Start
```bash
# Install Agenta SDK
pip install agenta
# Start Agenta locally with Docker
docker run -d -p 3000:3000 -p 8000:8000 ghcr.io/agenta-ai/agenta
# Or use pip for just the SDK
pip install agenta
# Initialize project
agenta init --app-name my-llm-app
```
## When to Use This Skill
**USE when:**
- Managing multiple versions of prompts in production
- Need systematic A/B testing of prompt variations
- Evaluating prompt quality with automated metrics
- Collaborating on prompt development across teams
- Requiring audit trails for prompt changes
- Building LLM applications that need to iterate quickly
- Need to compare different models with same prompts
- Want a playground for rapid prompt experimentation
- Self-hosting is required for security/compliance
**DON'T USE when:**
- Simple single-prompt applications
- No need for prompt versioning or testing
- Already using another prompt management system
- Rapid prototyping without evaluation needs
- Cost-sensitive projects (evaluation adds API calls)
## Prerequisites
```bash
# SDK installation
pip install agenta>=0.10.0
# For self-hosted deployment
docker pull ghcr.io/agenta-ai/agenta
# Or with docker-compose
git clone https://github.com/Agenta-AI/agenta
cd agenta
docker-compose up -d
# Environment setup
export AGENTA_HOST="http://localhost:3000"
export AGENTA_API_KEY="your-api-key" # If using cloud version
# For LLM providers
export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..."
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."
```
### Verify Installation
```python
import agenta as ag
from agenta import Agenta
# Initialize client
client = Agenta()
# Check connection
print(f"Agenta SDK version: {ag.__version__}")
print("Connection successful!")
```
