Python Executor

What is the Python Executor tool?

The Python Executor tool is a built-in capability in the Agno framework that allows AI agents to execute python code in a sandboxed environment. When added to an agent in Agno Builder, the agent can autonomously decide when to invoke this tool based on the user's request.

This is a free tool — no API key or external account is needed. It works out of the box when you add it to any agent.

How to use Python Executor in Agno Builder

1. 1

   Create an agent

   Drag an Agent node onto the canvas in Agno Builder, or use one of the built-in templates.

2. 2

   Enable Python Executor

   Click the agent, go to the Tools tab, and toggle on "Python Executor" from the dev category.

3. 3

   Test in chat

   Open the chat panel and send a message. The agent will automatically use Python Executor when relevant.

4. 4

   Export Python code

   Click File > Export Python to get clean, runnable code with the correct imports for Python Executor.

Python code example

This is the code Agno Builder exports when you use Python Executor:

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIChat
from agno.tools.python import PythonTools

agent = Agent(
    name="Python Executor Agent",
    model=OpenAIChat(id="gpt-4o"),
    tools=[PythonTools()],
    instructions=["Use the python executor tool to help the user."],
    markdown=True,
)

agent.print_response("Calculate the fibonacci sequence up to 100")

Install with: pip install agno
