+# Junior SRE-Agent
+
+This project demonstrates how to build a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) agent using Agno's Agent framework and Xpander's event streaming. It supports two modes:
+
+* **Local CLI** for ad-hoc queries
+* **Event Listener** for streaming chat events via Xpander Chat UI
+
+We use the following tech stack:
+
+* Agno's Agent framework
+* Xpander for event streaming & agent management
+* Kubernetes (kubectl CLI)
+
+---
+
+## Setup and Installation
+
+Ensure you have Python 3.12 or later installed on your system.
+
+### Clone the repository
+
+```bash
+git clone <your-repository-url>
+cd sre-agent-xpander.ai
+```
+
+### Create & activate virtual environment
+
+```bash
+python3.12 -m venv .venv
+source .venv/bin/activate    # macOS/Linux
+.venv\Scripts\activate       # Windows
+```
+
+### Install dependencies
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+### Configure credentials
+
+```bash
+cp .env.example
+cp xpander_config.json.example
+```
+
+**Configure `.env` file for OpenAI:**
+```bash
+OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key_here
+```
+
+**Configure `xpander_config.json` for Xpander credentials:**
+```json
+{
+  "agent_id":   "your_xpander_agent_id",
+  "api_key":    "your_xpander_api_key",
+  "org_id":     "your_xpander_org_id",
+  "base_url":   "https://agent-controller.xpander.ai"
+}
+
+## Xpander Agent Configuration
+
+Follow these steps to configure your Xpander agent:
+
+1. Sign in to the Xpander dashboard at [https://app.xpander.ai](https://app.xpander.ai)
+2. Create a new agent (or select an existing one) and note its **Agent ID** and **Organization ID**
+3. Go to the **API Keys** section and generate a new API key or use default
+4. Copy the key and update your `xpander_config.json` file:
+
+---
+
+## Run the project
+
+### CLI Mode
+
+```bash
+python sre_agent.py
+```
+
+Type your queries at the `➜ ` prompt and enter `exit` or `quit` to stop.
+
+### Event Listener Mode
+
+```bash
+python xpander_handler.py
+```
+
+Incoming messages will be forwarded to the SREAgent, any detected `kubectl` commands run live, and responses streamed back via SSE.
