# Hub quickstart
From an empty Hub to an agent that starts when someone mentions it. Each step links to the page that covers it properly.
## 1. Sign in
Open your Hub and sign in with the owner account created during deployment. Replace its temporary password when prompted. Your connections, daemons, and projects all live inside its organization.
## 2. Connect GitHub
Open **Connections** and connect GitHub. Choose the account or organization whose repositories you want to use.
The connection appears with a generated slug like `yourname-github`.
## 3. Register a daemon
On the machine that will run agents:
```sh
paseo hub login https://your-hub.example.com
paseo hub connect
```
Approve the CLI login in the browser. `connect` selects that active login's origin and enrolls the daemon using the stored organization credential. The CLI login and daemon relationship remain separate identities. See [Daemons](/docs/hub/daemons).
## 4. Create a project
Open **Projects → New project**. On its **Configuration** tab, pick a repository and choose **Use for configuration**. Hub now reads `.paseo/hub.yml` from that repository's default branch.
## 5. Commit the configuration
Add `.paseo/hub.yml` to that repository:
```yaml
project: your-project
environments:
- name: dev
kind: daemon
daemon: my-daemon
cwd: /Users/you/code/your-repo
triggers:
- name: mention
on: github.issue_comment
max_runtime: 2h
filters:
repo: yourname/your-repo
contains: "@paseo"
from_users: [your-github-login]
steps:
- id: work
environment: dev
max_runtime: 90m
idle_timeout: 10m
agent:
provider: codex
mode: full-access
prompt:
- text: |
Someone asked for help.
${{ paseo.prompt }}
```
`project` is the project slug from step 4. The deploy CLI reads it as deployment metadata; it does not affect workflow behavior. `daemon` is the normalized slug from step 3. `cwd` is a directory on that machine.
If a prompt uses an `include` block, store the file below `.paseo/partials/`. The deploy CLI bundles only the files referenced by `.paseo/hub.yml`; nested include-looking text inside a partial is not resolved.
## 6. Push
Push to the default branch. Hub fetches the file at that commit, validates it, and activates it. The **Configuration** tab shows the active revision and the last sync.
If the file is invalid, Hub records the failure and keeps the previous revision active.
To inspect the authenticated organization's projects and deploy the file directly, run:
```sh
paseo hub projects
paseo hub deploy --dry-run
paseo hub deploy
```
The commands use the active stored login. Origin precedence is explicit command origin or `--hub`, `PASEO_HUB_URL`, active login, then `https://hub.paseo.sh`. `--dry-run` sends the same YAML, project, and partial bundle to Hub's authoritative validator without recording or activating a revision. The command reads exactly `.paseo/hub.yml` from the current directory. Use `paseo hub deploy path/to/config.yml` for another file, or `-p, --project <slug>` to override the file's project metadata. An explicit `--api-key` or `PASEO_HUB_API_KEY` overrides the stored credential without persisting the key.
## 7. Trigger it
Comment `@paseo have a look at this` on an issue in that repository, from the account you listed in `from_users`.
Open the project's **Activity** tab. You should see the event received and routed, and an execution in **Executions**. The agent itself appears in the Paseo app on that machine.
Nothing happened? [Activity](/docs/hub/activity) has the checklist.
Before enabling the example for broader use, read [Hub security](/docs/hub/security) for trigger allowlists, host boundaries, provider-native controls, and output authority.
