Sectors Financial Agents

1. Set the API key

The API key must be available as the SECTORS_API_KEY environment variable.

# Option A: Set in your current shell
export SECTORS_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
Option B: Add to your shell profile (~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc) for persistence
echo 'export SECTORS_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"' >> ~/.bashrc
Option C: Use a .env file in the project root (see .env.example)

For agent-specific configuration:

2. Install the dependency

pip install requests

3. Verify setup (optional)

python scripts/check_setup.py

Making requests

import os
import requests
API_KEY = os.environ["SECTORS_API_KEY"]
BASE_URL = "https://api.sectors.app/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": API_KEY}
response = requests.get(f"{BASE_URL}/subsectors/", headers=headers)
data = response.json()

The Authorization header takes the raw API key. Do NOT prefix it with Bearer.
