Summary
Redesigns the quickstart page to lead with a simple, copy-paste prompt for AI coding agents — inspired by the Orange Slice pattern of giving users a single command to get started.
What changed
Why
The original quickstart was 5 manual steps. Most Kernel users are already working with AI coding agents — leading with a one-prompt setup matches how they actually work.
Note
Low Risk
Low risk documentation-only change that restructures the quickstart content and examples without affecting runtime code. Main risk is user confusion if the new CLI/agent instructions or command names drift from actual behavior.
Overview
Quickstart is redesigned to be agent-first. The page now opens with a copy/paste prompt intended for AI coding agents to install the CLI, run
kernel login, scaffold viakernel create, and deploy.The manual path is reorganized into a clearer step-by-step flow (install → auth → create → deploy → invoke), adds an MCP server tip, updates example commands (e.g.,
my-app,--env-fileguidance), collapses additional invoke examples into an accordion, and streamlines Next steps plus the templates table copy.Written by Cursor Bugbot for commit 4706e06. This will update automatically on new commits. Configure here.
