# Debug Level

This example demonstrates how to set different debug levels for an agent. The debug level controls the amount of debug information displayed, helping you troubleshoot and understand agent behavior at different levels of detail.

## Code

```python debug_level.py theme={null}
"""
This example shows how to set the debug level of an agent.

The debug level is a number between 1 and 2.

1: Basic debug information
2: Detailed debug information

The default debug level is 1.
"""

from agno.agent.agent import Agent
from agno.models.anthropic.claude import Claude
from agno.tools.duckduckgo import DuckDuckGoTools

# Basic debug information
agent = Agent(
    model=Claude(id="claude-3-5-sonnet-20240620"),
    tools=[DuckDuckGoTools()],
    debug_mode=True,
    debug_level=1,
)

agent.print_response("What is the current price of Tesla?")

# Verbose debug information
agent = Agent(
    model=Claude(id="claude-3-5-sonnet-20240620"),
    tools=[DuckDuckGoTools()],
    debug_mode=True,
    debug_level=2,
)

agent.print_response("What is the current price of Apple?")
