Managing server for local environment
You can import the agents and tools you build with the ADK in a local
environment using the watsonx Orchestrate Developer Edition. It allows you to test them before publishing on your remote
environment of watsonx Orchestrate instance.
The watsonx Orchestrate Developer Edition provides a local server of watsonx Orchestrate and also provides access to watsonx Orchestrate server commands, which assist in debugging the agents and tools you create. These commands help identify errors and give you control over the requests made by the agents and skills during use
Prerequisites to use a local
environment
- Install the watsonx Orchestrate Developer Edition. For more information, see Installing the watsonx Orchestrate Developer Edition.
