Implementation notes

  • Use this Guides & Tutorials doc as a navigation page first: the local clone mirrors the source structure and links each heading back to the authoritative upstream section.
  • Primary decision areas: Prerequisites, 1. Get a subscription, 2. Run the one-shot setup, What if I'm SSH'd into a server?, 3. Verify it worked. Read those source anchors before changing installs, credentials, automation, or runtime configuration.
  • Useful search signals for this doc: portal, walks, through, running, subscription. These are derived from the public title and summary so the clone remains lightweight.

Verification checklist

  1. Use this page to orient yourself within Guides & Tutorials, then open the linked source page for exact current syntax.
  2. Start with the source section for Prerequisites; do not rely on the local summary for commands or secrets.
  3. Check platform, install method, provider, and credential assumptions before changing a real environment.
  4. Review the source section for 1. Get a subscription if the page involves setup, automation, messaging, or runtime behavior.
  5. After applying anything from the source, run the smallest relevant smoke test before widening scope.

Risk notes

Automation

Start with a bounded dry run, logs, and a manual stop path before enabling recurring or unattended execution.

Model spend

Set provider, token, and retry limits before scaling the workflow beyond a single test run.

Runtime access

Check filesystem, shell, browser, repository, and server permissions before granting the agent write access.
