# Beta setup

> Set up an invited tester account, repository access, and separate API key.

# Beta setup

## What this lets you do

Prepare one isolated tester account and exercise the same paths that must pass before public release.

## What you need

An invited tester receives:

* Read access to the private runtime repository
* An individual DreamLayer account
* A personal test or live API key
* 10 promotional credits, shown separately from purchased credits

Do not share keys between testers.

## Steps

1. Clone from the invited GitHub account.
2. Run the zero-key sample.
3. Run `./dreamlayer doctor --json`.
4. Complete the primary path assigned for the session.
5. Refresh during one job and return to an existing conversation.

## Confirm it worked

The sample completes, doctor reports ready services, an existing conversation survives refresh, and the developer console shows 10 promotional credits separately from purchased credits.

## Common errors

* Repository access denied: confirm that the invited GitHub account is active.
* API key rejected: create a new individual test key and revoke the failed key.
* Missing promotional balance: stop before paid execution and report the account ID without sending the key.

## Troubleshooting

Share the runtime version, sanitized doctor output, public request or job ID, failure category, and whether retry recovered. Do not send prompts, images, provider keys, workflow JSON, or local paths unless you explicitly choose to.
