Setup

1. Create an API key

Sign in to the console and create a key. Accounts can hold more than one; every key spends the same credit balance.

Create API key

2. Install the CLI

npm install --global quotient-forecasting@latest
quotient setup

3. Choose access

  • Browser sign-in creates or retrieves your API key.
  • Existing API keys are accepted and stored with user-only file permissions.
  • x402 pays per call from your wallet, no API key required.

4. Select clients

  • Quick start installs the skill for detected Claude Code, Codex, Hermes Agent, and OpenClaw clients.
  • Customize selects individual clients, a portable Agent Skills directory, or optional MCP tools.

5. Verify the installation
