[Arcade](https://arcade.dev?ref=github) provides developer-focused tooling and APIs designed to improve the capabilities of LLM applications and agents. By removing the complexity of connecting agentic applications with your users' data and services, Arcade enables developers to focus on building their agentic applications. To learn more, check out our [documentation](https://docs.arcade.dev/home). _Pst. hey, you, give us a star if you like it!_ ## Quickstart ### Requirements 1. An **[Arcade account](https://account.arcade.dev/register?return_to=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.arcade.dev%2Fdashboard%2Fwelcome)** 2. **Python 3.10+** and **pip** ### Installation Install the package: ```bash pip install arcade-ai ``` Log in to your account via the CLI: ```bash arcade login ``` This opens a browser window for authentication. ### Verify Installation with `arcade chat` Use the `arcade chat` CLI app to test tools: ```bash arcade chat ``` This connects to the Arcade Cloud Engine (`api.arcade.dev`) with all pre-built Arcade tools. For example, try: ```text User (dev@arcade.dev): > star the ArcadeAI/arcade-ai repo on Github ``` Arcade will prompt you to authorize with GitHub and will star the [ArcadeAI/arcade-ai](https://github.com/ArcadeAI/arcade-ai) repo on your behalf. You'll see: ```text Assistant (gpt-4o): I starred the ArcadeAI/arcade-ai repo on Github for you! ``` Press `Ctrl-C` to exit the chat. ## Arcade Cloud Arcade Cloud is a hosted version of the Arcade engine that hosts a number of prebuilt toolkits for interacting with a variety of services. ### Prebuilt Toolkits Arcade offers a number of prebuilt toolkits that can be used by agents to interact with a variety of services.
