# Getting Started

- [Welcome to Kitaru](https://docs.zenml.io/kitaru/getting-started/readme.md): Replay-based evals for AI agents, in Python and TypeScript. Test your next change against what your agent already did in production.
- [Installation](https://docs.zenml.io/kitaru/getting-started/installation.md): Install Kitaru with one command, start the local server, and verify. Other install paths for project environments, TypeScript, and team servers.
- [Deploy Kitaru](https://docs.zenml.io/kitaru/getting-started/deploy.md): Self-host Kitaru for your team: one server, your Postgres, workers in the environments where your agents live.
- [Docker](https://docs.zenml.io/kitaru/getting-started/deploy/docker.md): Run the Kitaru server with Docker, using Compose for one host or the server container against your own Postgres.
- [Helm](https://docs.zenml.io/kitaru/getting-started/deploy/helm.md): Deploy the Kitaru server on Kubernetes with the first-party Helm chart, covering external Postgres, automatic migrations, ingress, and TLS.
- [Set up your coding agent](https://docs.zenml.io/kitaru/getting-started/setup.md): Install the MCP server and agent skills, then drive the whole Kitaru loop from Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor.
- [Quickstart](https://docs.zenml.io/kitaru/getting-started/quickstart.md): From an agent in production to your first replay-backed decision, driven by your coding assistant: every step is a prompt first, a command second.

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.zenml.io/kitaru/getting-started.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
