Choose your CALIBER path
The role-first entry point into the docs: choose the right path for integration, operations, governance, architecture, or product fit.
This page exists so a reader can choose the right documentation path first, before dropping into deep reference or architecture pages.

1. If you are integrating with CALIBER
Start with the Python SDK unless you have a concrete reason to work at the raw HTTP layer.
Use the REST API directly when:
- you are not integrating from Python
- you need to compare wire behavior against the SDK
- you are working with an endpoint before a typed SDK method exists
Recommended path:
2. If you are operating a deployment
Start from bring-up and readiness, not from architecture.
Recommended path:
- Local bring-up guide
- Configuration and provider setup
- Health and readiness
- Operator troubleshooting
- Operations runbook
3. If you are evaluating trust, governance, or release posture
Start from the trust surfaces that connect evidence, review, and apply.
Recommended path:
4. If you need system architecture
Start from the layered model, then read only the deep subsystem pages that matter for the question you are answering.
Recommended path:
- Architecture reader guide
- Layered architecture
- Platform
- the subsystem pages that matter for your topic
5. If you are deciding whether CALIBER fits
Start from the platform shape and the market position, not the route modules.
