Quick Start

This guide will get you up and running with Vultrino in under 5 minutes.

1. Initialize Vultrino

First, initialize the configuration and set up your admin account:

vultrino init

You’ll be prompted to:

1. Set a storage password (encrypts your credentials at rest)
2. Create an admin username for the web UI
3. Set an admin password for the web UI

Tip: Set the VULTRINO_PASSWORD environment variable to avoid password prompts:

export VULTRINO_PASSWORD="your-secure-password"

2. Add Your First Credential

Add an API key credential:

vultrino add --alias github-api --key ghp_your_github_token

Add a Basic Auth credential:

vultrino add --alias my-service --type basic_auth --username admin --password secret123

3. List Your Credentials

vultrino list

Output:

ALIAS                TYPE            ID                                   DESCRIPTION
github-api           api_key         a1b2c3d4-...                        -
my-service           basic_auth      e5f6g7h8-...                        -

4. Make an Authenticated Request

Use the request command to make API calls with your stored credentials:

vultrino request github-api https://api.github.com/user

The credential is automatically injected — you never need to expose the actual token.

5. Start the Web UI

Launch the admin dashboard:

vultrino web

Open http://127.0.0.1:7879 and log in with your admin credentials.

6. Use with AI Agents (MCP)

Start the MCP server for LLM integration:

vultrino serve --mcp

Configure your AI agent (Claude, etc.) to use Vultrino as an MCP server. See Using with AI Agents for detailed setup instructions.
