# Agent Guides

> Pick a real job, such as funding a venue or placing your first trade, and follow one guide all the way from the setup through to checking that it worked.

Each guide gives you the exact prompts to paste into your agent, tells you what a good answer looks like, and shows you how to confirm the result yourself. The reference pages explain each venue and tool on its own; the guides show how to put them together.

## How a guide works

Every guide follows the same shape:

1. **Goal.** What you will have done by the end.
2. **What you need.** Accounts, funds and connections to have ready.
3. **Steps.** Prompts to paste, in order, with what a good answer looks like. Steps that move money are marked **(moves money)**.
4. **Check it worked.** How to confirm the result yourself.
5. **Common mistakes.** What usually goes wrong and how to avoid it.

The prompts work in the [OpenFinance app chat](https://docs.openfinance.tech/product/chat.md) and in any AI client connected to the [MCP server](https://docs.openfinance.tech/mcp/overview.md), such as Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Hermes or OpenClaw. If you have not connected an agent yet, start with [Quick install](https://docs.openfinance.tech/getting-started/quick-install.md) or the page for your client.

## Safe-agent basics

Keep these five habits in every guide:

* **Read first, trade second.** Ask for the balance, the price or the quote before you ask for the order.
* **Read the summary before you say yes.** Every trade needs your confirmation. Check the market, side, size and price.
* **Start small.** There is no practice mode, so your first trade on any venue should be one you would not mind losing.
* **Keep approvals on.** Do not put OpenFinance tools on an auto-approve list in your client.
* **Guard your key.** It acts as your whole account. Never paste it into a chat, a repository or a screenshot.

Nothing in these guides is financial advice. Trading carries a high risk of loss.
