Building AI Agents with CrewAI

Exercise instructions

Your AI researcher is getting ready to join the team! But before it can start working, it needs a proper tool and a clear job description:

  • Wrap the search function with CrewAI’s @tool decorator, so it becomes compatible for agents to use.
  • Define your Research Agent with his role, goal, and backstory.
  • Pass the search tool to the agent so it has the ability to look things up online.


Note: If you’re running DataLab in Restricted Mode, this exercise isn’t supported yet. We’re actively working on making it available in the future.
