OS code-signing pending: every binary carries a minisign.sig (authenticity, key F110B9BD6FF00BA2), but the artifacts are not yet OS-code-signed — no Windows Authenticode, no Apple notarization. Windows SmartScreen and macOS Gatekeeper will therefore warn on first run (see Install below).
macOS Intel: v0.2.0 does not ship an x86_64 macOS binary — install from source with the framework bootstrap (gald3r install agent --from-source, which uses uv), or run the free framework directly — it does not require the binary.

Install

Verify, then put it on your PATH

Confirm the SHA-256 checksum and the minisign .sig, then move the binary to a directory on your PATH as gald3r.

Or: framework bootstrap

powershell
# From any gald3r-enabled project, let the framework fetch, verify the# .sha256 AND the minisign .sig, and drop the binary into the gald3r home# bin/ — no manual curl needed. Picks the right asset for your OS/arch. # preview the plan first (writes nothing)$ uv run --project .gald3r_sys/engine gald3r install agent --dry-run # apply$ uv run --project .gald3r_sys/engine gald3r install agent # ...or the IDE command wrapper (Cursor / Claude Code / etc.)> /g-install-agent

The bootstrap downloads, SHA-256-verifies, and places the binary in the gald3r home bin/. It does not auto-mutate your PATH — add that directory yourself. Flags:--release vX.Y.Z pins a version,--from-source builds from source (the Windows path),--require-verification fails closed on a checksum mismatch.

OS code-signing notice: the binaries carry a minisign.sig for authenticity (key F110B9BD6FF00BA2), but they are not yet OS-code-signed — there is no Windows Authenticode certificate and no Apple notarization. On Windows, SmartScreen shows an “unrecognized app” prompt on first run — choose More info → Run anyway. On macOS, Gatekeeper flags it — clear the quarantine attribute (xattr -d com.apple.quarantine …) as shown above, or open it once via right-click → Open. OS signing/notarization is pending Authenticode and Apple Developer certificates.

Usage

What the gald3r CLI does

A file-first task / bug / plan / coordination engine. These are the real verb groups — run gald3r --help for the full tree.

Boards — file-first & offline

gald3r status · doctor · task · bug · idea

Read and write the .gald3r/ task, bug, and idea boards straight from the shell. Deterministic, no LLM, no network — the same files your IDE agents edit.

Pipeline runners

gald3r go · go-code <id> · go-review <id>

Single-shot equivalents of the @g-go pipeline: claim the next task, implement it, then run an independent verification pass — right from the CLI.

Agent loop & specs

gald3r run · agent run · swarm · autopilot

Run a task through the agent loop (--task / --task-id), execute a declarative agent spec, launch a multi-teammate swarm, or drain an autopilot queue.

Coordination (hosted backend)

gald3r login · connect · claim · autoclaim · daemon · workspace

Opt-in verbs that connect to the hosted world_tree backend: authenticate, connect provider OAuth, claim tasks collision-free, and run the resident connector daemon.

Config & providers

gald3r init-providers · profile · local-model · env

Seed ~/.gald3r/providers.yaml, manage your user profile, and set up keyless local models (Ollama / LM Studio) with a $0-server-cost routing entry.

Extend

gald3r plugin · skill-pack · pers

Install plugins from the registry or a git URL, add and save skill packs, and switch personality packs — all from the binary.

Repo & worktrees

gald3r worktree · push-gate · housekeep

Create and merge isolated agent worktrees, run the pre-push gate, and keep the repo tidy. Absorbed from the git-commit skill family.

Desktop & traces

gald3r throne · errors · trace

Launch the installed Throne desktop app from the CLI, and inspect the agent's error/trace surface with a quick summary view.

A few real commands

gald3r — examples
# board + health — file-first, offline, deterministic$ gald3r status$ gald3r doctor # create a task, then run an implement -> review pass on it$ gald3r task add "Add rate limiting to the login route" --priority high$ gald3r go-code 42$ gald3r go-review 42 # drive the agent loop directly on a one-off task$ gald3r run --task "Fix the null check in auth.py" --provider anthropic # wire up keyless local models (Ollama / LM Studio)$ gald3r init-providers$ gald3r local-model setup

Capabilities

What the Agent gives you

One binary, one command

A single compiled `gald3r` executable — no Python install, no virtualenv on the target machine. Install once, then scaffold, run, and coordinate from any shell or from inside Throne.

Deterministic where it counts

The file-first verbs — task, bug, idea, status, doctor — are deterministic and fully offline: no LLM, no network, no Docker. The agent-loop and coordination verbs (run, autoclaim, daemon) connect out only when you invoke them.

Signed & checksummed

Every published binary ships with a `.sha256` checksum and a minisign `.sig` signature (key F110B9BD6FF00BA2), verified offline by the engine's built-in Ed25519 verifier. `gald3r install agent --require-verification` fails closed on a mismatch.

Thin client, server-side loop

The shipped binary is a thin client: `gald3r run` opens a session on the hosted world_tree backend and executes server-requested local tools. Your login/token lives in the OS keyring, never in the repo.

Bring your own models

`gald3r init-providers` + `gald3r local-model setup` register locally-served Ollama / LM Studio models as keyless routing targets — $0 server cost. Cloud providers resolve keys from ~/.gald3r/providers.yaml or env.

Autonomy built in

`gald3r autopilot`, `gald3r swarm run`, and `gald3r autoclaim` drive multi-task and multi-agent work — the plumbing behind @g-go, @g-go-code, and the swarm commands, exposed as native verbs.

Download gald3r_agent v0.2.0

The precompiled binary is live for Windows (.exe / .msi), Linux, and macOS. Every asset ships with a SHA-256 checksum and a minisign .sig signature — verify before you install. The free framework does not require the binary; paid coordination features are waitlist-only while registration is closed.

The Agent binary is free to download. Paid coordination features (hosted backend, team dashboards) are waitlist-only while registration is closed.
