60-second quickstart

# 1. Provision a tenant (instant, no email, no password)

Why abz

• Free tier that ships — generous, production-grade limits on the house. Paid fallback kicks in only when you push past them.
• 20 signature voices — male & female, American & British, from warm & professional to deep & commanding.
• CxO personas — drop-in boardroom voices for CFO, CTO, CMO, CCO, CSO, CLO agents.
• Personality-driven — pass OCEAN traits and let abz pick the voice that fits your NPC.
• Agent-first — no email, no password, no OAuth dance. Just an API key.
• Zero dependencies — Node built-ins only. Nothing to audit, nothing to break.
• Self-serve keys — rotate, revoke, and list keys from the CLI. You're never locked out.

Per-project config

abz login --local --key YOUR_KEY    # → .abz/config.json (project-local)
abz login --key YOUR_KEY            # → ~/.abz/config.json (global)
abz config                          # show which config is active

Local config overrides global. Add .abz/ to your .gitignore.
