Integrating Agno with LangDB

LangDB provides an AI Gateway platform for comprehensive observability and tracing of AI agents and LLM interactions. By integrating Agno with LangDB, you can gain full visibility into your agent’s operations, including agent runs, tool calls, team interactions, and performance metrics. For detailed integration instructions, see the LangDB Agno documentation.

Sending Traces to LangDB

​
Example: Basic Agent Setup

This example demonstrates how to instrument your Agno agent with LangDB tracing. 
from pylangdb.agno import init

# Initialize LangDB tracing - must be called before creating agents
init()

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.models.langdb import LangDB
from agno.tools.duckduckgo import DuckDuckGoTools

# Create agent with LangDB model (uses environment variables automatically)
agent = Agent(
    name="Web Research Agent",
    model=LangDB(id="openai/gpt-4.1"),
    tools=[DuckDuckGoTools()],
    instructions="Answer questions using web search and provide comprehensive information"
)

# Use the agent
response = agent.run("What are the latest developments in AI agents?")
print(response)

​
Example: Multi-Agent Team Coordination

For more complex workflows, you can use Agno’s Team class with LangDB tracing: 
from pylangdb.agno import init
init()

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.team import Team
from agno.models.langdb import LangDB
from agno.tools.duckduckgo import DuckDuckGoTools

# Research Agent
web_agent = Agent(
    name="Market Research Agent",
    model=LangDB(id="openai/gpt-4.1"),
    tools=[DuckDuckGoTools()],
    instructions="Research current market conditions and news"
)

# News Analysis Agent
news_agent = Agent(
    name="News Analyst",
    model=LangDB(id="xai/grok-4"),
    tools=[DuckDuckGoTools(search=True, news=True)],
    instructions="Perform comprehensive news analysis and research"
)

# Coordinated Team
reasoning_team = Team(
    name="Research Reasoning Team",
    mode="coordinate",
    model=LangDB(id="xai/grok-4"),
    members=[web_agent, news_agent],
    instructions=[
        "Collaborate to provide comprehensive research insights",
        "Consider both current events and background information"
    ],
    success_criteria="Complete research analysis with recommendations"
)

# Execute team workflow
reasoning_team.print_response("Analyze recent developments in artificial intelligence technology")

LangDB Capabilities

  • Virtual Models: Save, share, and reuse model configurations—combining prompts, parameters, tools, and routing logic into a single named unit for consistent behavior across apps
  • MCP Support: Enhanced tool capabilities through Model Context Protocol servers
  • Multi-Provider: Support for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, and other providers

​
Notes

  • Initialization Order: Always call init() before creating any Agno agents or teams
  • Environment Variables: With LANGDB_API_KEY and LANGDB_PROJECT_ID set, you can create models with just LangDB(id="model_name")
