🔐 Security: Never commit your API keys to version control. Keep your .env file secure and use strong, unique API keys.

6

API Keys Configuration

Set up your AI model API keys for Agent.Zero:

OpenAI API Key (Required)

Essential for Agent.Zero's core functionality:

  1. 1. Visit OpenAI API Keys
  2. 2. Create a new API key
  3. 3. Add credit to your OpenAI account
  4. 4. Copy the key to your .env file

Additional API Keys (Optional)

Enhance Agent.Zero with additional capabilities:

  • • Anthropic Claude: Advanced reasoning capabilities
  • • Google Search: Web search functionality
  • • Weather APIs: Real-time weather data
Verify API Key Configuration
cd /opt/agent-zero
python3 -c "import os; from dotenv import load_dotenv; load_dotenv(); print('OpenAI Key:', 'SET' if os.getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY') else 'NOT SET')"
7

First Run and Testing

Start Agent.Zero and verify it's working correctly:

Build and Start Agent.Zero
cd /opt/agent-zero
docker compose up --build -d
Check Container Status
docker compose ps
View Logs
docker compose logs -f agent-zero
Test Agent.Zero Communication
# Connect to the running container
docker compose exec agent-zero python3 -c "
import sys
sys.path.append('/app')
from agent_zero import Agent
print('Agent.Zero is ready!')
"

🚀 Success: Agent.Zero is now running! You can access the web interface on port 8080.

Web Interface Setup

Access and configure the Agent.Zero web interface:

Configure Nginx Reverse Proxy
apt install -y nginx
nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/agent-zero
Nginx Configuration
server {
 listen 80;
 server_name your-domain.com; # Replace with your domain
 location / {
 proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
 proxy_http_version 1.1;
 proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
 proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
 proxy_set_header Host $host;
 proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
 proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
 proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
 proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
 proxy_read_timeout 86400;
 }
}
Enable the Site
ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/agent-zero /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
nginx -t
systemctl restart nginx

🌐 Web Access: You can now access Agent.Zero through your domain or server IP address.

echo "=== Agent.Zero Status ==="
docker compose -f /opt/agent-zero/docker-compose.yml ps
echo -e "
=== Resource Usage ==="
docker stats --no-stream
echo -e "
=== Disk Usage ==="
df -h
echo -e "
=== Memory Usage ==="
free -h
echo -e "
=== Recent Logs ==="
docker compose -f /opt/agent-zero/docker-compose.yml logs --tail=10
Make Script Executable and Schedule
chmod +x /opt/monitor-agent-zero.sh
crontab -e
# Add: 0 */6 * * * /opt/monitor-agent-zero.sh >> /var/log/agent-zero-monitor.log
