How to Set Up and Use Agentcrew

AgentCrew is a multi-agent chat platform that supports Claude, GPT-4, Gemini, and any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, with full Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration so agents can use external tools alongside built-in capabilities like code execution, web search, shell commands, and conversation memory. It runs as a desktop GUI, terminal console, or HTTP API server, making it suitable for both interactive development sessions and automated agent pipelines. AgentCrew is the MCP client here — it connects to your existing MCP servers and lets multiple specialized agents collaborate on complex tasks.

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.12 or higher installed
  • API key for at least one supported LLM provider: ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY, or GEMINI_API_KEY
  • pip or the automated installer script (curl-based for macOS/Linux)
  • Optional: ElevenLabs or DeepInfra API key for voice features
1

Install AgentCrew

Install AgentCrew using pip. Alternatively, use the one-line installer for macOS/Linux which sets up the binary on your PATH automatically.

pip install agentcrew-ai
2

Set your LLM provider API key

Export the API key for your primary LLM provider as an environment variable. AgentCrew supports multiple providers simultaneously — set whichever keys you have.

export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-your-key-here
export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-your-openai-key-here
export GEMINI_API_KEY=your-gemini-key-here
3

Launch the desktop chat interface

Start AgentCrew in its default desktop GUI mode. The interface lets you select your model, configure agents, and start multi-agent conversations.

Or launch in terminal console mode

For a terminal-only experience without the GUI, use the --console flag. This is useful for remote servers or scripted workflows.

agentcrew chat --console
5

Connect MCP servers to your agents

AgentCrew can connect to any MCP server. Edit the configuration at ~/.AgentCrew/config.json to add MCP server entries. Each agent in your crew can be given access to specific MCP tools.

{
  "mcp_servers": {
    "filesystem": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/tmp"]
    }
  },
  "providers": {
    "anthropic": {
      "api_key": "sk-ant-your-key-here"
    }
  }
}
6

Define a multi-agent crew

Configure specialized agents in config.json. Agents can hand off tasks to each other, share conversation context, and use different LLM models for different roles.

    },

    }
  },

    "openai": { "api_key": "sk-your-openai-key-here" }
  }
}

Prompts to try

Example prompts that take advantage of AgentCrew's multi-agent and MCP capabilities.

- "Research the latest developments in quantum computing and write a summary report"
- "Analyze this Python codebase and have one agent identify bugs while another suggests refactors"
- "Use the web search agent to find recent pricing for AWS Lambda and compile a cost comparison"
- "Run the test suite in /workspace/tests and have an agent fix any failing tests"
- "Delegate the data analysis to one agent and report writing to another, then combine their outputs"
- "Set up a recurring agent that monitors a directory for new CSV files and processes each one"

Troubleshooting Agentcrew

agentcrew command not found after pip install

The binary may not be on your PATH. Try `python -m agentcrew` as an alternative, or check if the pip scripts directory is in your PATH. On macOS/Linux, use the official installer instead: `curl -LsSf https://agentcrew.dev/install.sh | bash`.

MCP server tools are not available to agents

Verify your MCP server entries in ~/.AgentCrew/config.json use the correct command and args. Test that the MCP server command works independently in your terminal. Restart AgentCrew after editing the config file.

API key errors when switching between LLM providers

Each provider requires its own API key set in config.json under the providers section or as environment variables (ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY, GEMINI_API_KEY). Make sure you have a valid key for each model you select in the agent configuration.
