Weather agent
Example of Pydantic AI with multiple tools which the LLM needs to call in turn to answer a question.
Demonstrates:
- retrievers
- multiple retrievers
- agent dependencies
In this case the idea is a "weather" agent — the user can ask for the weather in multiple locations,
the agent will use the get_lat_lng
tool to get the latitude and longitude of the locations, then use
the get_weather
tool to get the weather for those locations.
Running the Example
To run this example properly, you'll need two extra API keys:
* A weather API key from tomorrow.io set via WEATHER_API_KEY
* A geocoding API key from geocode.maps.co set via GEO_API_KEY
(Note if either key is missing, the code will fall back to dummy data.)
With dependencies installed and environment variables set, run:
python -m pydantic_ai_examples.pydantic_model
uv run -m pydantic_ai_examples.pydantic_model
