AI agent setup

If you build with an AI coding agent — Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Copilot, Windsurf, or any other — you don't need to walk through the setup guides by hand. Paste this one line into your agent:

Fetch https://developers.tango.vision/agent-setup/prompt.md and follow the instructions.

What the agent will do

1. Check Node 22+ and look for your platform credentials.
2. Configure the @tv registry in .npmrc (token stays in an environment variable, never on disk or in chat).
3. Install @tv/extension-sdk.
4. Scaffold a new module with init-module — or skip, if you already have one.
5. Drop an AGENTS.md context file into the module so every future agent session knows the platform rules (PlatformContext only, manifest validation, MCP tool declarations).
6. Validate module-manifest.json.
7. Optionally create an on-demand sandbox to develop against.

What the agent will not do

Two steps are yours, by design:

• Account sign-up. Creating a developer account involves email verification and accepting the Terms of Service — the prompt explicitly forbids agents from doing this for you.
• Credentials. The registry read token and sandbox API key are issued to you once (see Get a sandbox API key). You export them in your own shell; the prompt forbids agents from asking you to paste them into the conversation.

Do those two first and the agent handles the rest in one pass.

The prompt itself

The instructions your agent fetches are plain markdown, published at a stable URL so the agent (or you) can re-verify them at any time:
