# Quickstart

## Run one task end to end

Start with a task small enough that its finished state is obvious, so the handoff has something unambiguous to carry\. This command prints a message; it installs and runs no application\.

```
printf 'Ready for a static walkthrough.\n'
```

## What comes next

The operational pages describe how a task crosses a handoff and which limits bound it: the [operations runbook](https://www.hoalee.net/agentic-suite/docs/guide/operations/runbook) gives the order to check a stalled task in, and [operational limits](https://www.hoalee.net/agentic-suite/docs/guide/operations/limits) gives the bounds each step runs under\. The [glossary](https://www.hoalee.net/agentic-suite/docs/reference/glossary) defines the terms all three pages use\.
