## Step 1: Join the AMD AI Developer Program
Visit the official page: . In the **Join the AMD AI Developer Program** section:
- No AMD ADP account yet: click **Create Account** and enter your personal information;
- Already have one: click **Log In** and follow the on-screen instructions.
## Step 2: Request Cloud Credits under Member Perks
After registering and signing in:
1. Click **Member Perks** in the top navigation bar;
2. Find **Cloud Credit Options**;
3. Click **Request Cloud Credits** at the bottom of the page.
## Step 3: Complete the application form
Fill in the requested personal information:
- Under **Product Needed**, select **Fireworks AI**;
- In the **Profile** section, provide at least one public profile for account verification: LinkedIn, GitHub, a portfolio, a company or school profile, WeChat, WeCom, and similar all work.
Complete the other required fields marked with `*`, double-check your email, identity, product selection, and profile link, then submit.
## Step 4: Wait for the review
AMD verifies your account and application, usually within **2–3 business days** — actual time varies with application volume, information completeness, and holidays.
## Step 5: Receive and redeem the coupon code
Once approved, AMD emails a unique **Coupon Code** redeemable for **$50 in Fireworks AI Credits** to your application address. Keep it secure — do not share it publicly, forward it, or commit it to a repository.
Redeem it and create an API key:
1. Open and sign in;
2. Click **Redeem Promo** and enter the Coupon Code from the email to redeem the $50 credits;
3. Click **Create API Key** to generate your Fireworks API key.
## Set it up in PenguinHarness
With the API key in hand, three steps:
**1. Install and launch**
```bash
curl -fsSL https://penguin.ooo/install.sh | sh
penguin web # opens http://127.0.0.1:7364 (first login: admin, initial password printed on first start)
```
**2. Configure a Fireworks model**
Open the Models page and find the **Fireworks AI** group, then use its bulk key button to paste the API key you just created. The group presets five models — GLM 5.2, Kimi K2.7 Code, DeepSeek V4 Pro, MiniMax M3, and DeepSeek V4 Flash — with base URLs and pricing pre-filled; set any of them as the default. You can also hit the group's speed-test button to measure real TTFT and TPS before choosing.
**3. Start working**
Head back to Chat and hand the Agent its first task — e.g. "Analyze data.csv and summarize quarterly sales".
