One-click install

Get running in under 2 minutes

Windows

PowerShell one-liner

Clones repo, installs Docker + Git via winget if needed

Configure

Creates .env from template; prompts for your Anthropic API key

Launch

Brings up Postgres + Redis + backend + worker + UI, opens the dashboard

Troubleshooting

The .ps1 file opens in Notepad instead of running

That's Windows' default: .ps1 files aren't executed on double-click for security. Two fixes: use the one-liner above (it pipes the script straight into PowerShell), or download install.bat — that's a real launcher.

"execution of scripts is disabled on this system"

The one-liner bypasses execution policy. If you downloaded the .ps1, right-click → Run with PowerShell, or run: powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File install.ps1

Docker says "Cannot connect to the Docker daemon"

Docker Desktop isn't running. Start it from the Start menu (Windows) or Applications (Mac), wait until the whale icon goes green, then re-run.
