Install

Install the Tempo launcher, which manages the wallet and request extensions:

curl -fsSL https://tempo.xyz/install | bash

Quick start

tempo wallet login
tempo wallet balance
tempo wallet services search ai
tempo request --dry-run https://example.mpp.tempo.xyz/v1/resource
tempo request https://example.mpp.tempo.xyz/v1/resource

login opens a device-code approval in the wallet app. Replace the example URL with a service endpoint. request --dry-run probes the endpoint and previews a payment without paying; a non-GET probe may still have server-side effects.

balance and whoami include MACH alongside the default currency, including zero balances. For an eligible charge, request --dry-run shows MACH under mach, separately from the advertised currency’s balance and access-key limit.

To add funds, run tempo wallet fund. It opens the wallet app and returns a link; it does not wait for or confirm a deposit. Check tempo wallet balance after funding. To receive a transfer, run tempo wallet address.
