Download, run, open.

Go to the releases page, choose your OS (Mac, Linux, or Windows), download and run the installer.

Visit http://localhost:3000 and you'll land on the home screen (Orb).

Part 4 // Configure For Your Workflow

Four settings worth visiting on day one.

Set your default model — Settings > Models. Choose local (private, free) or cloud (more powerful), and set API keys if using cloud.
Create a project — click Projects in the sidebar and start one for your current work. Celestos remembers context across sessions.
Explore the Skill Vault — click Skills in Chat, browse what's installed, and use the trigger tester to see what activates.
Try Hand Mode (optional) — Settings > Hand Tracking. Fly through your memory graph with hand gestures.
