Create a Python file

tracing_multi_db_flag.py

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.db.sqlite import SqliteDb
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIResponses
from agno.os import AgentOS
from agno.tools.hackernews import HackerNewsTools
from agno.tools.hackernews import HackerNewsTools

# Set up databases - each agent has its own db
db1 = SqliteDb(db_file="tmp/db1.db", id="db1")
db2 = SqliteDb(db_file="tmp/db2.db", id="db2")

# Dedicated traces database
db = SqliteDb(db_file="tmp/traces.db", id="traces")

agent = Agent(
    name="HackerNews Agent",
    model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"),
    tools=[HackerNewsTools()],
    instructions="You are a hacker news agent. Answer questions concisely.",
    markdown=True,
    db=db1,
)

agent2 = Agent(
    name="Web Search Agent",
    model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"),
    tools=[HackerNewsTools()],
    instructions="You are a web search agent. Answer questions concisely.",
    markdown=True,
    db=db2,
)

# Setup AgentOS with tracing=True and dedicated db
# This ensures traces are written to and read from the same database
agent_os = AgentOS(
    description="Example app for tracing with multiple databases",
    agents=[agent, agent2],
    tracing=True,
    db=db,  # Dedicated database for traces
)
app = agent_os.get_app()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    agent_os.serve(app="tracing_multi_db_flag:app", reload=True)
