Deep Agents requires Python 3.8 or higher, and it is recommended that you install it in a virtual environment to avoid dependency conflicts.

In order to enable smart features, the API key for an external LLM service (such as OpenAI or Anthropic) must be configured, either through an .env file or an environment variable. After installation, validation code must be run to confirm that the environment is configured correctly, including core function calls and simple task execution tests.
