SDK walkthrough. - [Guide: submit a private TWAP order](https://docs.tachyon.pe/guides/private-twaps.md): Build a TWAP order, encrypt it with ECIES, sign it, and submit to the TWAP service. - [Guide: x402 micropayments for agents and APIs](https://docs.tachyon.pe/guides/x402-micropayments.md): Point any standard x402 stack at Tachyon's facilitator so agent-to-API payments settle confidentially. - [Guide: viewing permissions and selective disclosure](https://docs.tachyon.pe/guides/viewing-permissions.md): Grant scoped read access to specific intents using viewing keys. Both at submission time and after the fact. - [Install the SDK](https://docs.tachyon.pe/sdk/installation.md): Install @tachyon/sdk, configure network, and verify your setup. The SDK is a thin wrapper over the Relayer HTTP API. - [User authentication and viewing keys](https://docs.tachyon.pe/sdk/authentication.md): Wallet-signature-gated access to recipient keys held inside the secure enclave. No client-side key storage required. - [Submitting intents](https://docs.tachyon.pe/sdk/submitting-intents.md): Create an on-chain intent plus an encrypted recipient bundle. The two together form a complete submission. - [Tracking intents](https://docs.tachyon.pe/sdk/tracking-intents.md): Polling and (planned) webhooks for intent state. - [Retrieving funds (recipient side)](https://docs.tachyon.pe/sdk/retrieving-funds.md): How recipients detect, claim, and sweep funds delivered to their stealth addresses. - [Intent schema](https://docs.tachyon.pe/reference/intent-schema.md): The public (on-chain) part and the encrypted (off-chain) part of an intent, and which fields live where. - [SDK API reference](https://docs.tachyon.pe/reference/sdk-api.md): Method signatures for @tachyon/sdk and the relayer endpoint each one wraps. - [Errors](https://docs.tachyon.pe/reference/errors.md): Error codes integrators encounter and how to handle them. - [Rate limits](https://docs.tachyon.pe/reference/rate-limits.md): Platform-wide throughput limits and recommended client-side behavior. - [Confidential Payroll](https://docs.tachyon.pe/products/confidential-payroll.md): Pay many recipients across many chains as a single batch of confidential intents.

Pay from any chain with any token; merchant address and amount stay confidential. - [Private TWAP](https://docs.tachyon.pe/products/private-twap.md): Execute size over time as a stream of confidential intents. Funds are pulled upfront to hide the pattern; the TEE drips tranches on a fixed schedule. - [Confidential Bridge](https://docs.tachyon.pe/products/confidential-bridge.md): Move tokens between chains with recipient-side confidentiality.
