Up and running in 60 seconds.
The daemon runs entirely on your machine and signs a receipt for everything your agents do, from the first minute. The lowest-friction install is to just ask your agent.

Ask your agent to install it
Seamless integrationYour agent can read the repo and set it up for you. Paste this into any coding agent: it reviews the source, installs and runs the daemon, then Crux's setup wizard integrates it with your session: the MCP surface wired up, a passport minted, and your capability graph handed over. No manual config.
Review and install the Crux Daemon from github.com/CueCrux/Crux. Read the README and LICENCE first, run it locally, then use its setup wizard to connect the daemon to this session and confirm the console is up at http://localhost:14800.
Prefer to do it yourself?
Source-available under CCL-1.0. Read every line before you run it.

http://localhost:14800/console
