Pull Request Overview
This PR enhances the kagent deploy command to support loading environment variables from a .env file instead of requiring separate --api-key or --api-key-secret flags. The .env file must contain the model provider API key along with any other environment variables needed by the agent.
Key changes:
- Replaced
--api-keyand--api-key-secretflags with a single--env-fileflag that accepts a path to a.envfile - Added validation to check for required environment variables and warn about missing optional variables
- Implemented automatic deployment restart after updates to ensure environment variable changes take effect
