Itô Compute
Use the canonical Itô compute CLI or MCP server. ECC does not implement a parallel client, local simulation, reservation, workload runner, or inference server. ECC itself does no browser automation.
Install the canonical local package
ito-compute-cli is currently unpublished. Build it from its canonical repository instead of using npx, npm exec, or an unverified package:
git clone https://github.com/Ito-Markets/ito-cloud-runtime.git
cd ito-cloud-runtime/cli/ito-compute-cli
npm ci
npm run check
Set ECCITOCLI_EXECUTABLE to the explicit absolute built entry:
/absolute/path/to/ito-cloud-runtime/cli/ito-compute-cli/dist/bin/ito.js
ECC never discovers this credential-bearing client through PATH. ecc ito login performs device authorization and never inherits ITOAPIKEY. The validation-only auth, plus find and status, forward ITOAPIKEY directly when configured; ITOAUTHMODE=legacy is not required. Never put a key or token in arguments, tracked files, MCP results, logs, or chat.
CLI workflow
- Run
ecc ito login before the first operation. ECC delegates this to the
canonical CLI's device authorization, which opens the Itô verification page by default and persists a device token in macOS Keychain. Use ecc ito login --no-browser to suppress the page handoff. ECC itself does no browser automation. If the originating agent cannot complete the signed-in browser step, hand the exact command to the user; after approval finishes, return to the originating task and continue with ecc ito auth. Device tokens use macOS Keychain by default. File-token fallback is explicit and its directory and token file must remain owner-only (0700 and 0600).
- Run
ecc ito auth to validate existing credentials; it never starts login
and rejects --no-browser.
- Before
ecc ito find, obtain explicit buyer authority to submit an RFQ.
- Require gpu, count, whole days, max-rate, nodes, gpus-per-node, storage-tb, start-window, form-factor, contract-type, fabric, region, and the split-fill decision. - Require count == nodes * gpus-per-node; never derive topology. - Use any only when the buyer explicitly accepts any fabric or region. - Omitted --allow-split means false.
- Run the live RFQ command:
``sh ecc ito find \ --gpu h200 \ --count 8 \ --nodes 1 \ --gpus-per-node 8 \ --days 30 \ --storage-tb 1 \ --start-window 2099-08-15 \ --max-rate 3.00 \ --form-factor bare_metal \ --contract-type reservation \ --fabric infiniband \ --region us-east-1 ``
- Run
ecc ito status to inspect RFQs and procurement orders.
After an ambiguous transport failure, check status before repeating find.
- When a quote is ready and the buyer explicitly approves, accept it:
``sh ecc ito accept rfq_<ticket-id> ``
This routes the ticket to the desk for human review. It does not move funds or reserve capacity. Do not accept without explicit buyer authority.
- Run
ecc ito logout when the user explicitly asks to revoke this device.
The canonical CLI keeps the local credential when remote revocation fails so the operator can retry; never delete the token manually as a substitute.
Inventory prices are indicative. An RFQ is not reserved capacity. Treat a rate as fixed only when the canonical result contains a non-null firm quote.
Live node qualification
ecc ito evals exposes the canonical CLI's narrow live adapter to a separately installed sixtytwo-cli==0.3.33. It does not expose local fixture execution through ECC. Require all of the following before invoking it:
- operator authorization to contact the named nodes;
ITOENABLESIXTYTWO_LIVE=1;
--live-sixtytwo;
- an explicit node list; and
- an existing absolute config directory containing
sixtytwo.yaml.
ecc ito evals \
--cluster clu_prod_example \
--live-sixtytwo \
--nodes gpu-01,gpu-02 \
--config-dir /absolute/path/to/qualification-config
The canonical adapter can run only the pinned version check and sixtytwo test --full against the explicit nodes. It cannot rent, launch, recover, repair, reset, purchase, or order resources. ECC does not forward ITOAPIKEY or model/cloud credentials into node qualification.
MCP workflow
Build the canonical package, then configure the stdio server with an absolute path:
{
"mcpServers": {
"ito-compute": {
"command": "node",
"args": [
"/absolute/path/to/ito-cloud-runtime/cli/ito-compute-cli/dist/bin/ito-mcp.js"
]
}
}
}
The server exposes only:
ito_auth
ito_find
ito_status
ito_accept
itoauth validates existing credentials; it does not start device login. Use itoauth, gather explicit buyer authority and every hard constraint, call itofind, then poll with itostatus when needed. When a quote is ready and the buyer explicitly approves, call itoaccept with the ticket id. Desk quotes are usually indicative and nonbinding until the desk confirms; the result carries quoteclass.
Rent or purchase semantics
find submits an RFQ and may return a firm quote, but it does not rent, purchase, reserve, provision, or move funds. accept routes a quote to the desk for human review; it does not move funds or reserve capacity. status is read-oriented, though the provider endpoint may reconcile an existing procurement order. The passive dashboard link in ECC help is a separate user-operated web route; do not open or operate it as a substitute for a missing CLI capability.
Unsupported operations
The supported client surface cannot lock quotes, reserve capacity, execute workloads, or serve inference. accept is a desk handoff, not a purchase. The MCP server does not expose qualification; use the explicit CLI command above. Do not invent additional tools or a purchase path. Do not substitute a browser or fixture when the local CLI is missing or a live operation fails. Report the missing capability and stop.
