# Your first 15 minutes

> Get oriented in Peak — learn the interface and run your first command.

This page is a guided tour of the Peak interface. By the end, you will know the layout of every screen, how to run a command, and how to move between related views.

## The Peak shell

Every screen in Peak follows the same structure. Once you recognize the shell, every command feels familiar.

| Element                   | Location                | Purpose                                              |
| ------------------------- | ----------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| Header bar                | Top of screen           | Search, Object selector, Command pill, market ticker |
| L1 tabs                   | Below header            | Major sections within the current command            |
| L2 sub-tabs               | Below L1 (when present) | Subdivisions inside an L1 tab                        |
| Content area              | Main body               | The actual data — tables, charts, stat cards         |
| Suggested Commands footer | Bottom of screen        | Contextual related commands                          |

The header is mission control. Almost every action in Peak starts there.

## Run your first command

Peak is built around the **Object + Command** model. You choose what to analyze (the Object) and how to analyze it (the Command).

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the search bar">
    Click the search field in the header.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter an Object">
    Try a token symbol such as `SOL`, or a protocol name such as `Uniswap`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select a Command">
    Choose `TKD` (Token Description) for a token, or `PRA` (Protocol Analysis) for a protocol. The header pill confirms the active command.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Explore the tabs">
    Move through the L1 tabs to see different angles on the same Object.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  You can type the Object and Command together — for example, `SOL TKD` — to jump directly to that view.
</Tip>

## Cross-references

Throughout Peak, you will see inline links written as **Command Name (CMD) ↗**. These are cross-references — one click takes you to a related command for the same Object without losing context.

The **Suggested Commands** footer at the bottom of every screen lists the most relevant follow-up views for what you are currently looking at.

## Switching Objects

You can change the active Object in three ways:

1. **Search bar** — type the name or symbol of any Object.
2. **Object dropdown** — click the Object pill in the header to swap to a different instance of the same type.
3. **Cross-reference links** — click any inline Object link in the content area.
