Quickstart

From signup to first function invocation in under 5 minutes.

Edit on GitHub

1. Sign up & grab an API key

Visit asc.aiarco.com, create an account, and generate an API key from the dashboard. Keys are prefixed asc_.

export ASC_API_KEY=asc_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

2. Install the SDK

Python:

pip install asc

TypeScript:

npm install @aiarco/asc

3. Invoke a function

import asc
 
client = asc.Client()  # picks up ASC_API_KEY
fn = client.functions.create("hello", runtime="python3.12", handler="handler.main")
print(client.functions.invoke(fn["id"], payload={"name": "world"}))

4. Upload a file

client.storage.upload("docs/intro.txt", b"hello from ASC")
print(client.storage.list(prefix="docs/"))

5. Talk to a model (BYOK)

client.secrets.put("OPENAI_API_KEY", "sk-...")
print(client.gateway.chat(
    "fast",
    [{"role": "user", "content": "Say hello in haiku."}],
))

6. Check your bill

print(client.billing.usage(days=7))

You'll see per-primitive usage and the corresponding billed amount in customer_cost_usd. No surprises.
