This chapter covers deployment options from development to production.

What you’ll learn

1. Local Development - Running agents during development
2. Production - Deploying to production servers
3. Serverless - AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Functions, Azure Functions
4. Docker & Kubernetes - Container-based deployment
5. CGI Mode - Traditional web server deployment

class MyAgent(AgentBase):

    def __init__(self):

        super().__init__(name="my-agent")
7
        self.add_language("English", "en-US", "rime.spore")

        self.prompt_add_section("Role", "You are a helpful assistant.")

if __name__ == "__main__":
11
    agent = MyAgent()
12
    agent.run()

The run() method automatically:

• Detects serverless environments (Lambda, Cloud Functions, Azure)
• Starts a development server on localhost for local development
• Handles CGI mode when deployed to traditional web servers

Starting the development server

The simplest way to run your agent locally:

All languages default to http://localhost:3000.
