Every two points of agility give you 1 action point, so putting this to 10 (9 if you plan on eventually getting the perk) at the beginning of the game is a good way to go because having lots of action points is very useful. However, action points can also be gained through some other perks.

(+3 temporary) (+6 if taken twice) Psycho drug
+1 via perk, +1-2 via story elements, +1 via game encounter

By using ACE in the Brotherhoods of steel bunker in San Francisco it's possible to install memory modules. These give various bonuses, for example the red module increases your strength permanently by 1.
In the NCR the Hubologists' zeta scan either raises your luck by +2 or lowers it permanently by -1. You need to be a bit lucky here (hah!) as the increase or decrease effect is random. You could semi-cheat by saving before the scan.
