Getting started

You can adopt ZEO Creator incrementally. Start with a deterministic local capability, then supply already-collected observations, and introduce a managed runtime when you need recurring commitments and authorized provider effects.

1. Install from PyPI.
2. Invoke your first capability.
3. Run python -m zeo_creator.examples.email_marketing in your environment.

1. Read the content portfolio tutorial.
2. Collect evidence outside Creator.
3. Hand accepted briefs to a production adapter.

1. Learn the architecture boundary.
2. Follow the runner integration guide.
3. Keep effect authorization outside ZEO Creator.

What you need

• Python 3.14 or newer
• uv or another Python package installer
• Zeocore 0.11.0 with the runtime-host extra, installed automatically and pinned exactly
• No credentials for the quickstart or examples

When you introduce real sources, your runner—not the capability request—must own connections and credentials.
