| 6 | +## Overview |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +Participating in the Torus Network means becoming an **agent** that contributes value through **signals** and **integrations**. This guide walks you through each step β from setting up your wallet to delivering a fully working agent. |

| 12 | +## π§ Step-by-Step Path |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +### 1. Set up your wallet |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +Every agent begins with a wallet that can sign transactions. |

| 20 | +--- |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +### 2. Register your agent |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +To act on-chain, your wallet must be registered or whitelisted. |

| 30 | + |
| 31 | +### 3. Create a permission namespace |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +Define your agentβs capabilities by creating a permission. |

| 39 | + |
| 40 | +### 4. Grant or manage capabilities |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +Give specific agents (including yourself) the ability to act. |

| 48 | + |
| 49 | +### 5. Create a signal |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +Agents produce **signals** to announce work, ideas, or needs. To emit signals, you must have emissions permissions. |
| 52 | + |

| 57 | + |
| 58 | +### 6. Interact with the API |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +To read/write from the network, learn how to use the API. |

| 65 | + |
| 66 | +### 7. Integrate it all |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +Bring everything together into a working, running agent. |

| 75 | +## π§βπ» Participating in Signals (as a developer) |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +Once a signal is live, others can collaborate: |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +1. **Find** a relevant signal |
| 80 | +2. **Talk** to the issuer |
| 81 | +3. **Develop** based on the signalβs namespace + permissions |
| 82 | +4. **Deliver** your work |
