Hi @phitrti , sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues setting up the environment. One of our developers put together this beginner-friendly guide for setting up VisionAgent. I recommend following these instructions to see if you can get unstuck. Let us know how it goes!
Thanks @lai-bianca for the quick response. Any chance you have details for a python venv setup? I was hoping to avoid conda or miniconda as the target environment already exists as python venv. Or a list of the required libraries and packages that are needed that I need to install manually?
Hi @phitrti, here's a set of instructions for using a venv setup: https://short-germanium-d7b.notion.site/Initial-setup-with-Python-venv-1ba8c6d3ef4c8073a0dccb6c55e73efd
We haven't tested this procedure yet, so please let us know if you hit any roadblocks or have any edits.
The venv instructions are pretty much the same as what I did. This morning, I tried again from scratch and get the same error. I'm running Python 3.13.2. Is there maybe a back dependency where I need to use Python 3.10. The instructions say Python 3.10 but the github page says anything over 3.9 should be fine. That is the only difference I can find.
Side question: I've been using github as the source for visionagent documentation like installation but in your responses above, you are pointing to a different website. Is there a documentation library for visionagent I should be looking at beyond github?
Here is the full output of what I did and I get the same error. Let me know if you think I should try down leveling to 3.10 for this.

Hi @phitrti
At the moment, it appears that the vision-agent repository only allows pillow-heif versions in the following format: 0.16.*
However, the first pillow-heif version that is compatible with Python 3.13 is 0.17.0. As a temporary fix, you could change the line in the pyproject.toml file that defines the pillow-heif version from:
pillow-heif = "^0.16.0"
to
pillow-heif = "^0.17.0"
And it should work now. This is just a temporary fix, but the underlying issue should be resolved soon.
Where does pyproject.toml live for me to edit? I find one in a python3 example folder but none appear in any venv folders.

@phitrti You won’t find it in your venv because it exists only:
In the original package repo (if cloning manually), or in a temp build folder during pip install from source.
Could you please try using python 3.10 or 3.11? This is happening deep inside the setup.py or pyproject.toml of the dependency — it doesn’t recognize Python 3.13 yet. This is pretty common for newer Python versions that upstream packages haven’t caught up to.
Setup / Installation question.
I'm trying to set up the python environment on the Mac for VS Code. I tried just:
python3 -m pip install vision-agent
But it gave me errors around build wheel. Doing a bit of digging, I then did:
brew install pkg-config
brew install ffmpeg
python3 -m pip install vision-agent
And got further. I'm having an issue with pillow-heif I think. I tried
brew install x265 libjpeg libde265 libheif
based on some information on their website but that didn't fix the issue.I'm using python 3.13.2. Here is the error I'm getting:
