From one useful result to live work you can improve. Seven steps.

From one useful result to live work you can improve. Seven steps.

1. Step 1 of 7

   Choose one useful result

   Write the outcome in a sentence a customer would recognise. “Answer a billing ticket with the right queue and a draft reply” is a result; “use AI for support” is not.

   You do

   Name a project and describe the result

   Vendor.sh does

   Creates the project with Development, Staging and Production

   You get

   A place for the work, separated from every other project

2. Step 2 of 7

   Build the path visually

   Place the agents, tools and branches on the canvas in the order the work happens.

   You do

   Draw the graph and write each agent’s instructions

   Vendor.sh does

   Saves a draft and checks that every step is connected

   You get

   A path the whole team can read

3. Step 3 of 7

   Connect the correct accounts

   Choose how each model is reached and which accounts your tools act as.

   You do

   Pick a provider route and add tool connections

   Vendor.sh does

   Stores credentials outside workflow content

   You get

   Connections the draft can use, and nothing else

4. Step 4 of 7

   Try real examples

   Run the draft on inputs taken from real work, including the awkward ones.

   You do

   Start try runs in Development

   Vendor.sh does

   Records every step with its inputs, tokens, latency and cost

   You get

   Evidence of how it behaves before anyone depends on it

5. Step 5 of 7

   Release a checked version

   Score it against saved examples, then release the version you tested.

   You do

   Run an evaluation and release

   Vendor.sh does

   Freezes the version so it cannot change underneath a caller

   You get

   A numbered release that Staging and Production can point at

6. Step 6 of 7

   Connect the product

   Your backend calls the deployment with a limited service key.

   You do

   Create a service key and send the first request

   Vendor.sh does

   Accepts the run, queues it, and streams its steps

   You get

   Live requests from your product, safe to retry

7. Step 7 of 7

   Review and improve live work

   Read what happened in production and turn it into the next release.

   You do

   Read runs, traces, and cost against budgets

   Vendor.sh does

   Keeps runs, costs and changes on the record

   You get

   The next version, based on what really happened
