+# Installing XDS client tools
+
+[xds-agent](https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=src/xds/xds-agent.git) is a client tool that must run
+on your machine (user / developer host) to be able to use XDS.
+
+You should establish the following chain:
+
+- XDS Client: (`xds-cli` or XDS Dashboard).
+- XDS Agent: (`xds-agent`) running on your machine.
+- XDS Server (`xds-server`) running on a remote server and/or in a container.
+
+Exchanges between these 3 tools are done though HTTP and Websocket protocols.
+
+Default url/port mentioned in schema below can be change using config files.
+
+![XDS blocks chain](./pictures/xds-block-chain.png)
+
+Installation of other XDS client tools, such as `xds-cli` or `xds-gdb` is
+optional and depends of what you want to do:
+
+- [xds-cli](https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=src/xds/xds-cli.git) : command line tool to used to interact with XDS (also used by IDE integration).
+- [xds-gdb](https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=src/xds/xds-gdb.git) : requested for debugging application.

+- Install `xds-agent`:
+
+ 1. Download the latest released tarball from github [releases page](https://github.com/iotbzh/xds-agent/releases).
+
+ 1. Then unzip the tarball any where into your local disk (for example: `/opt/AGL/xds` or `C:\AGL\xds`).
+
+ 1. Add binary to PATH:
+
+ - MacOs: create the .bash_profile `nano .bash_profile` and add `export PATH="/opt/AGL/xds/xds-agent:$PATH`
+ - Windows: change the system path via control panel or system settings or
+ `setx path "C:\AGK\xds\xds-agent;%path%"`
+
+- repeat the previous steps to install other tools depending of your needs:
+ - `xds-cli` : requested for command line and IDE integration. ([released tarball link](https://github.com/iotbzh/xds-cli/releases)).
+ - `xds-gdb` : requested for debugging application. ([released tarball link](https://github.com/iotbzh/xds-gdb/releases)).
+
+## Start xds-agent
+
+XDS-agent is a client tool that must run on your local / user development
+machine when you use XDS.
+
+For **Linux** distro, a user systemd service is provided, `xds-agent.service`.
+
+To start it automatically at boot and you can enable it using following commands:
+
+```bash
+# Enable xds-agent service at boot
+systemctl --user enable xds-agent.service
+```
+
+To start the XDS-agent service:
+
+```bash
+# Manually start xds-agent service
+systemctl --user start xds-agent.service
+
+# Get status and log of xds-agent service
+systemctl --user status xds-agent.service
+```
+
+On **MacOS** (or Linux), you can start-it manually using following commands:
+
+```batch
+/opt/AGL/bin/xds-agent
+```
+
+On **Windows**, you can start-it manually using following commands:
+
+```batch
+C:\AGL\xds\xds-agent\xds-agent.exe
+```
