🏁 Getting Started

Step 1: Install Required Packages

pip install strands-agents
pip install strands-agents-tools

Step 2: Setup Model Provider

Follow the instructions here to configure your model provider and model access.

Step 3: Build Your First Strands Agent

from strands import Agent, tool
from strands_tools import calculator, current_time, python_repl

@tool
def letter_counter(word: str, letter: str) -> int:
 """
 Count the occurrences of a specific letter in a word.
 """
 if not isinstance(word, str) or not isinstance(letter, str):
 return 0
 if len(letter) != 1:
 raise ValueError("The 'letter' parameter must be a single character")
 return word.lower().count(letter.lower())

agent = Agent(tools=[calculator, current_time, python_repl, letter_counter])

message = """
I have 4 requests:

1. What is the time right now?
2. Calculate 3111696 / 74088
3. Tell me how many letter R's are in the word "strawberry" 🍓
4. Output a script that does what we just spoke about!
 Use your python tools to confirm that the script works before outputting it
"""

agent(message)
