This guide takes you from nothing to your agent’s first live tool call.

​
1. Install AgentKey

Pick whichever fits how you work — both take about a minute.
Run the installer for your OS:
curl -fsSL https://agentkey.app/install.sh | bash

irm https://agentkey.app/install.ps1 | iex

Full installation guide

All install methods in detail — including Claude Desktop — plus how to review the install script first.
AgentKey supports 22 agents. The console get-started flow matches your agent and gives you the exact command; see Supported Agents for the full list.

​
2. Get your key and pick a plan

1

Create a key

Sign in to the console and create a master key (ak_...). Treat it like a password — it authenticates every request and is tied to your subscription.
Never commit your key to source control or paste it into a chat. Store it as instructed by the setup flow.
2

Pick a plan

AgentKey is subscription-based. Choose a plan from the console — each plan includes a monthly credit allowance shared across every service, with overage billing beyond it. No per-provider signups.
3

Provide the key

Follow the prompts from the installer (or the skill’s setup steps) to supply your key. See Authentication.

How billing works

Learn how plans, monthly credits, and per-call costs work.

​
3. Make your first call

Every AgentKey workflow follows the same pattern: discover → describe → execute.
1

Discover

Ask AgentKey which tool fits your task. Pass your full intent in natural language — e.g. “search the web for the latest Claude news”. You get back ranked Provider/Operation tool names.
2

Describe

Look up the chosen tool to get its exact parameters, per-call cost, and a ready-to-run template.
3

Execute

Run the tool with your parameters and use the result.
In practice you just ask your agent in plain language. Try: “Search X/Twitter for what people are saying about AgentKey today.”

Understand the model

Why AgentKey uses discover → describe → execute, and how to use it well.
