Quickstart Path
This page exists for direct CTA links. The main Overview entry point is Start Here.
Use this page when you already know which chain you want to test and need the shortest path to a working evaluation.
1. Pick the first runtime
| Chain/runtime | Package docs |
|---|---|
| Bitcoin / UTXO chains | Bitcoin Crawler |
| EVM-compatible chains | EVM Crawler |
| Client integration | Transport SDK |
2. Pick one model target
Choose one:
- one smart contract;
- one wallet allowlist;
- one UTXO/address subset;
- one system/network event stream;
- one small fee or block statistic.
Do not start with full-chain indexing unless that is the actual proof.
3. Run a narrow proof
Your first proof should produce:
That is enough to verify the architecture.
4. Inspect the result
Check:
- the crawler starts;
- the provider connection works;
- model events are stored;
- the model state can be queried;
- the chosen transport works;
- the database grows according to the focused model, not unrelated chain data.
5. Expand only after proof
After the small model works, decide whether to add:
- more addresses/contracts;
- historical replay from an earlier start height;
- another transport;
- custom queries;
- mempool monitoring;
- a larger storage/projection strategy.
