Getting Started

New to AgentOps? You're in the right place. This section answers three questions in order: what is it, how do I install it, and what's the first useful thing I can run.

If you're evaluating AgentOps for a team, start with the Newcomer Guide — it frames the product in fifteen minutes. If you're ready to ship code with it, skip to Install and then First command. If you want a structured curriculum, jump to the Levels path at the bottom.
