Quick Start

  1. Set API Key

    Set your OpenRouter API key as an environment variable in your terminal:

    bash
    export OPENROUTER_API_KEY=your_openrouter_api_key_here
  2. Create a file

    Create a new file openrouter_airbnb.py with the following code:

    python
    from praisonaiagents import Agent, MCP
    
    search_agent = Agent(
        instructions="""You help book apartments on Airbnb.""",
        llm="openrouter/google/gemini-2.0-flash-exp:free",
        tools=MCP("npx -y @openbnb/mcp-server-airbnb --ignore-robots-txt")
    )
    
    search_agent.start("MUST USE airbnb_search Tool to Search. Search for Apartments in Paris for 2 nights. 04/28 - 04/30 for 2 adults. All Your Preference")
  3. Install Dependencies

    Make sure you have Node.js installed, as the MCP server requires it:

    bash
    pip install "praisonaiagents[llm]"
  4. Run the Agent

    Execute your script:

    bash
    python openrouter_airbnb.py
