Summary

Closes #236

Adds a brief "Generating keys.json" subsection under "Set up your environment" to document how local mech deployment users should create the required keys.json file.

Currently the README tells users to run autonomy packages sync and mech run, but the prerequisite keys.json file (required by the deployment CLI) is not mentioned anywhere — leaving users to hunt through the Open Autonomy docs to figure it out, as reported in #236.

Changes

  • Adds a new subsection "Generating keys.json" before the "Run the demo" section
  • Links to the official Open Autonomy walkthrough
  • Shows the 3 CLI commands (autonomy generate-key ethereum, autonomy generate-keys, fill in addresses)
  • Reminds that keys.json is gitignored and must not be committed

Files changed

  • README.md (1 file, +13 lines)

Closes valory-xyz#236

Adds a brief "Generating keys.json" subsection to "Set up your environment" that:
- References the official Open Autonomy docs walkthrough
- Shows the 3 command-line steps to generate a keys.json locally
- Reminds developers that keys.json is gitignored and must never be committed

This addresses the confusion reported in valory-xyz#236 where the keys.json file is
required by the mech deployment CLI but its format is not documented in this
README.
