from phi.knowledge.pdf import PDFUrlKnowledgeBase
from phi.vectordb.pgvector import PgVector

db_url = "postgresql+psycopg://ai:ai@localhost:5532/ai"

agent = Agent(
    storage=PgAgentStorage(table_name="recipe_agent", db_url=db_url),
    knowledge_base=PDFUrlKnowledgeBase(
        urls=["https://phi-public.s3.amazonaws.com/recipes/ThaiRecipes.pdf"],
        vector_db=PgVector(table_name="recipe_documents", db_url=db_url),
    ),
    # Show tool calls in the response
