Onboarding

Onboarding adds one site to your team. Whichever way you do it, the result is the same: a site on its own first party hostname, an edge worker deployed for it, and a snippet that your pages load. Pick the way by who does the work and where your site runs.

A Shopify store is set up by hand: you create the site in the Blotout platform, then add a snippet and a custom pixel to your store. A WordPress site works the same way, with one snippet in your site’s header and nothing to install. On any other platform, use the agent or the wizard, and paste the snippet through the theme editor or tag manager.

Agent via CLI

The Qinto CLI runs the same onboarding as the wizard from a terminal, and an AI agent can drive it. Install it, log in once, and ask your agent to onboard the domain. Every prompt of the wizard has a flag, and --no-input --json makes the output machine-readable, so the agent supplies the answers up front and reads the result.

npm i -g @blotout/qinto-cli
qinto login
qinto domain onboard example.com --mode managed --no-input --json

DNS can stay pending without the command failing. The CLI prints a resume command, and qinto domain dns example.com checks the record again later.

Platform

The wizard in the Blotout platform has four steps. Open it from the welcome page of a new team with Create site, or from the team’s site list with Add site. Domain starts the Site step, and each page that follows covers one step or one field.

Shopify and WordPress

A hosted platform has its own setup. The guide for each one covers every step and the settings it needs.
