Quick setup guide. First we start by setting up the environment

Setup Git – https://github.com/git-guides/install-git

Install Python – https://www.python.org/downloads/

Get Docker Desktop – https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/

Get and OpenAI API Key – https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys

Next we Clone the Repo

Run the following once the above has been carried out.

cmd > git clone https://github.com/Torantulino/Auto-GPT

Navigate into the Auto-GPT directory

cmd > cd Auto-GPT

Edit the .env.template file and insert your OpenAI API Key variable into line no. 3

Save the modified file as .env

Install Python libraries

cmd > pip install – requirements.txt

Start the Docker

After Docker is installed run the following command to start Docker

cmd > docker run -d -p 80:80 docker/getting-started

you should see something like this (I’m running this test version on Windows)

Here’s where the fun starts:

Run python scripts/main.py and follow the terminal prompts. (%Path%/Auto-GPT/scripts/main.py)

You can choose between a fully autonomous continuous mode or manual approval of each action.

For continuous mode, run this: cmd > python scripts/main.py –continuous

(If that’s all too hard, use this Browser based version https://agentgpt.reworkd.ai/ and supply your own API key ;))

Enjoy!!
