    Usage

    Hand this template to an AI agent to set up this template

    Node.js and npm to run npx.

    Dome CLI, installed with brew install dome-systems/tap/dome, then signed in with dome auth login.

    Docker Compose to run the companion app locally.

    1. 1

      Create a workspace

      dome workspaces create --name <workspace-name>

      The CLI creates and selects a workspace context for you.

    2. 2

      Confirm the workspace context

      dome context list

      The workspace you just created is already selected.

    3. 3

      Pull the template

      npx @domesystems/templates pull dome-systems/ai-agent-for-vanta@0.1.0 --dir ai-agent-for-vanta

      Downloads this immutable release and verifies its digest.

    4. 4

      Run the template

      npx @domesystems/templates up --dir ai-agent-for-vanta

      Imports it into Dome and starts the companion app.

    Dome import variables

    npx @domesystems/templates up imports the template into Dome and prompts for required values. For unattended runs, set them as DOME_IMPORT_VAR_… environment variables.

    Required values

    • DOME_IMPORT_VAR_anthropic_api_key

    Setup guide

    Follow this template's setup guidance for agent variables and upstream connections.

    # Configure Vanta

- `anthropic_api_key`: enter the Anthropic key used by this agent's model.

After saving, authorize a test organization with an identity limited to the required compliance data. The provider OAuth scope is broad, so verify the gateway's read-only tool list before use.

    Runtime environment

    These variables are required to run the agent. During pull, .env.example is copied to .env when available. If they’re missing, npx @domesystems/templates up retrieves them from Dome and saves them in .env. Pass --provision to refresh them.

    No .env.example is included in this release.
