+# Installed-package smoke tests
+
+Run these checks in a fresh environment after building and installing the wheel,
+without installing test or development extras. This catches runtime dependencies
+that an existing development environment can accidentally provide.
+
+```sh
+python -m pip wheel . --no-deps --wheel-dir dist
+python -m venv /tmp/zhipuai-install-test
+/tmp/zhipuai-install-test/bin/python -m pip install dist/zhipuai-*.whl
+/tmp/zhipuai-install-test/bin/python -I tests/installation/test_installed_sdk.py -v
+```
+
+The isolated interpreter imports the installed package rather than the source
+checkout. The tests create no API requests and require only runtime dependencies.
