Quick Start

ABS Core is an infrastructure project for AI runtime governance. This guide is for technical inspection of the local repository and the current WASM engine.

1. Prerequisites

• Rust Toolchain: 1.75+.
• Node.js: v20+.
• pnpm: v9+.
• Environment: Linux or macOS recommended.

2. Repository root

Use the current repository root:

cd /Volumes/LexarAPFS/abs-core

3. Inspect the project structure

Relevant areas in the current repository:

• runtime/engine-wasm — Rust/WASM policy engine.
• packages/sdk-typescript — TypeScript SDK.
• packages/sdk-python — Python SDK.
• packages/web — web/docs application.
• packages/shield — supporting runtime / enforcement-related package.

4. Build the WASM engine

The Rust engine currently lives under runtime/engine-wasm.

cd runtime/engine-wasm
cargo build --target wasm32-unknown-unknown --release

This produces the WASM build artifact for the policy engine.

5. Return to the repository root

cd /Volumes/LexarAPFS/abs-core

6. Install workspace dependencies

pnpm install

7. Run the workspace

The root workspace currently exposes the following scripts:

pnpm dev
pnpm build
pnpm lint

If a package does not implement one of these scripts yet, that package must be adjusted before a full workspace run will succeed.

8. Scope note

ABS Core is not documented here as a turnkey SaaS subscription. The current public positioning is closer to:

• runtime governance infrastructure,
• policy enforcement middleware,
• customer-specific deployment and integration.

9. Proof and maturity note

Public materials may describe capabilities at different stages of maturity. Treat the current repository as the source of truth for what is implemented, and treat broader claims as requiring technical validation during due diligence.

10. Deployment note

Deployment topology depends on the target environment. Depending on the use case, components may run in edge, self-hosted, or customer-controlled environments.
