Using Secure Tools

Install and configure marketplace tools that run on provider servers.

What are Secure Tools?

Secure tools are marketplace items that execute on the provider's server rather than on your host. Your API keys and credentials are sent directly to the provider and are never stored on Daisinet servers. The ORC only handles tool discovery and purchase management — execution and configuration go directly between your host/Manager and the provider.

Step 1: Purchase

Browse the marketplace and purchase a secure tool like any other item. Secure tools are identified by a shield icon on their listing card. Free, one-time, and subscription pricing all work the same way.

When you purchase a secure tool, the system generates a unique installation identifier and notifies the provider. This identifier is used for all communication with the provider — your Daisinet account ID is never shared.

Step 2: Configure

  1. Go to Marketplace > My Purchases in the DAISI Manager.
  2. Find the secure tool and click the Configure button.
  3. Fill in the required setup fields (API keys, credentials, region, etc.).
  4. Click Save Configuration. Your data is sent directly to the provider's server.
Privacy: Your credentials are transmitted directly from your browser to the provider's server. They do not pass through the Daisinet ORC. The ORC never stores, logs, or caches your setup data.

Step 3: Use

Once configured, secure tools appear automatically on your host alongside local tools. When you start or restart your host, it queries the ORC for your installed secure tools and creates lightweight proxies for each one.

During inference, the AI can invoke secure tools just like any other tool. Your host sends the execution request directly to the provider's server — the ORC is not in the execution path, so there's no added latency.

Troubleshooting
