getting started
Your workspace
Signup creates a working setup, not an empty account: an organization, a default project ready to receive traffic, and a starter key shown exactly once. This page maps what you got and where everything lives.
What signup creates
| thing | details |
|---|---|
| organization | Your tenancy boundary. Keys, projects, and captures all belong to it. One organization per signup today; teams are forward-compatible. |
| default project | Slug rehearsal, with a default workload named main. Unscoped traffic lands here, so your first request works before any configuration. |
| starter key | An sk_* key whose plaintext is shown once during the onboarding handoff — save it then. Lost keys are revoked and re-minted, never recovered. |
Dashboard map
The dashboard at app.understudylabs.com has two levels, mirroring the scoping model:
| page | job |
|---|---|
| Home | The pulse: a getting-started checklist until you finish it, activity, recent captures. |
| Projects | Index of product surfaces. Open one to enter its workbench. |
| API keys | Mint, inspect, revoke. One key per environment. |
| Models | The public catalog — ids you can call or route to. |
| Setup | The connection quickstart: pick a path, copy runnable snippets. |
| Project → Workloads / Routing / Captures / Settings | Per-project workbench: declare call sites, set model routes and traffic, read the evidence, rename or retire the project. |
