+This sample demonstrates how to execute Nexus operations directly from client code,
+without wrapping them in a workflow. It shows both synchronous and asynchronous
+(workflow-backed) operations, plus listing and counting operations.
+
+
+### Temporal Python SDK support for Standalone Nexus Operations is at [Pre-release](https://docs.temporal.io/evaluate/development-production-features/release-stages#pre-release).
+
+All APIs are experimental and may be subject to backwards-incompatible changes.
+
+Standalone Nexus operations require a server version that supports this feature. Use the dev server build at https://github.com/temporalio/cli/releases/tag/v1.7.2-standalone-nexus-operations.
+
+### Sample directory structure
+
+- [service.py](./service.py) - Nexus service definition with echo (sync) and hello (async) operations
+- [handler.py](./handler.py) - Nexus operation handlers and the backing workflow for the async operation
+- [worker.py](./worker.py) - Temporal worker that hosts the Nexus service
+- [starter.py](./starter.py) - Client that executes standalone Nexus operations
+
+
+### Instructions
+
+Run the [Temporal dev server build that supports standalone Nexus operations](https://github.com/temporalio/cli/releases/tag/v1.7.2-standalone-nexus-operations). 
+(If you are going to run locally, you will want to start it in another terminal; this command is blocking and runs until it receives a SIGINT (Ctrl + C) command.)
+
+Start a Temporal dev server with the dynamic config flags required for standalone Nexus operations:
+
+```bash
+temporal server start-dev \
+  --dynamic-config-value "nexusoperation.enableStandalone=true" \
+  --dynamic-config-value "history.enableChasmCallbacks=true"
+```
+
+Create the Nexus endpoint:
+
+```
+temporal operator nexus endpoint create \
+  --name nexus-standalone-operations-endpoint \
+  --target-namespace default \
+  --target-task-queue nexus-standalone-operations
+```
+
+In one terminal, start the worker:
+```
+uv run nexus_standalone_operations/worker.py
+```
+
+In another terminal, run the starter:
+```
+uv run nexus_standalone_operations/starter.py
+```
+
+### Expected output
+
+```
+Echo result: hello
+Hello result: Hello, World!
+
+Listing Nexus operations:
+  OperationId: echo-..., Operation: echo, Status: COMPLETED
+  OperationId: hello-..., Operation: hello, Status: COMPLETED
+
+Total Nexus operations: 2
+```
+
+If you run the starter code multiple times, you should see additional operations in the listing results, as more operations are run.
+The same goes for the total number of operations.
