# ⚡ Quick Start: Cerebras Setup

## 🎯 **What You Need to Do RIGHT NOW**

### **Step 1: Add Your API Key** (2 minutes)

You mentioned you already have a Cerebras API key. Let's add it!

**Edit the .env file**:

nano .env
```

Replace `<YOUR_CEREBRAS_API_KEY_HERE>` with your actual Cerebras API key.

**It should look like**:
```
CEREBRAS_API_KEY=csk-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
```

Save and exit (Ctrl+X, then Y, then Enter).
