# YAML Agent Storage

Phidata supports using local YAML files as a storage backend for Agents using the `YamlFileAgentStorage` class.

## Usage

```python storage.py theme={null}
from phi.agent import Agent
from phi.tools.duckduckgo import DuckDuckGo
from phi.storage.agent.yaml import YamlFileAgentStorage

agent = Agent(
    storage=YamlFileAgentStorage(path="tmp/agent_sessions_yaml"),
    tools=[DuckDuckGo()],
    add_history_to_messages=True,
)

agent.print_response("How many people live in Canada?")
agent.print_response("What is their national anthem called?")
```
