# TDM Quick Start Summary: Quick start workflow for the TDM DaOS ecosystem. Install tdm-sdk, open the local Dashboard with tdm, initialize your first workspace, review Hub install plans, configure trust/allowlist policy, and expose MCP tools. Status: Public quick start documentation Topics: - TDM DaOS quick start - Workspace management - Contour Runtime setup - TDM plugin installation - Trust Policy configuration - Sandboxed runtime basics - MCP-based agent execution - Sovereign Gateway connectivity Packages: - tdm-sdk Commands: - npm install tdm-sdk - tdm workspace create - tdm - Dashboard Hub catalog - Dashboard Hub install plan - tdm trust verify - tdm allowlist list - tdm mcp - tdm connect
Get your first Agent Contour running in minutes. TDM DaOS provides a secure, local-first runtime for agents, a Hub catalog for capabilities, MCP tooling, and modular settlement through the SDK Gateway clients.

Pick the path that matches your current goal. Whether you are setting up a local laboratory, installing tools from the Hub, or wiring up a sovereign gateway, these starters get you running immediately.
Local-First
Create a secure, local environment for your agents. This sets up your vault and storage roots.
Decentralized
Use the Dashboard Hub catalog to preview install plans, verify trust signals, and attach approved capabilities.
Secure
Define exactly what your agent can do. Set budgets, allowlists, and manual confirmation rules.
Sovereign
Use the native TDM Gateway or connect your own settlement layer for financial sovereignty.
The tdm-sdk package provides the core CLI and the runtime primitives needed to build and manage your DaOS environment. The public npm release is available. Reviewers and early users can install and test the package directly.
A workspace is your local "Contour" — a boundary for agents, tools, and secrets. It initializes a Vault for your signing keys and a Storage Root for persistent data.
If you plan to use paid plugins or intents, connect your primary wallet to the TDM Gateway and fund your session gas tank.
Plugins and skills are registered as reviewed capability cards. Use the Dashboard Hub flow to inspect the install plan, satisfy checkout proof if required, and bind the capability to the right workspace or contour.
Execute your agent intents within the secure sandbox. Every intent is checked against your rules before being routed to a plugin.
The Contour Runtime provides an MCP (Model Context Protocol) interface for agents to discover capabilities, check readiness, inspect plugins/runs, and use gated memory.
Use the CLI to maintain your DaOS environment. Manage your fuel, check balances, and sweep unused tokens.
