Agentic chunking is an intelligent method of splitting documents into smaller chunks by using a model to determine natural breakpoints in the text. Rather than splitting text at fixed character counts, it analyzes the content to find semantically meaningful boundaries like paragraph breaks and topic transitions.

​
Usage

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.document.chunking.agentic import AgenticChunking
from agno.knowledge.pdf_url import PDFUrlKnowledgeBase
from agno.vectordb.pgvector import PgVector

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

knowledge_base = PDFUrlKnowledgeBase(
    urls=["https://agno-public.s3.amazonaws.com/recipes/ThaiRecipes.pdf"],
    vector_db=PgVector(table_name="recipes_agentic_chunking", db_url=db_url),
    chunking_strategy=AgenticChunking(),
)
knowledge_base.load(recreate=False)  # Comment out after first run

agent = Agent(
    knowledge_base=knowledge_base,
    search_knowledge=True,
)

agent.print_response("How to make Thai curry?", markdown=True)
