Cremind
Getting Started

Desktop app

The Cremind App is a prebuilt desktop client for Windows, macOS, and Linux that bundles the agent and auto-updates from GitHub Releases.

The Cremind App is a desktop client that bundles the agent, so you don't have to run the install script or manage a server yourself. Download an installer, run it, and you have a working Cremind on your machine. Like the rest of the project it is open source and early (version 0.0.1).

Download

Prebuilt installers are published on GitHub Releases. Pick the file for your operating system:

OSFileFormat
WindowsCremind App-Windows-<version>-Setup.exeNSIS installer
macOSCremind App-macOS-<version>.dmgDisk image
LinuxCremind App-Linux-<version>.AppImageAppImage

Replace <version> with the release you're downloading.

What's bundled

The desktop app ships the Cremind agent inside it — there is no separate server install needed. Launch the app and the agent runs locally, ready to chat. On first run you'll still go through the same setup wizard as a script install: choose an LLM provider, paste a key, and create your first profile (named admin).

Auto-updates

The Cremind App auto-updates from GitHub Releases, so you stay on the latest build without re-downloading installers by hand.

Desktop app vs. one-line installer

Both give you the same agent and the same web setup wizard; they differ in how the agent is delivered and managed.

Desktop appOne-line installer
DeliveryPrebuilt installer per OSScript that builds or pulls on your machine
AgentBundled in the appDocker container or native venv
UpdatesAuto-update from ReleasesRe-run the installer to upgrade in place
Best forA self-contained desktop assistantServers, sandboxed Docker mode, or custom deployments

If you want the agent isolated in a sandboxed container, observable over VNC, or reachable from other machines, use the one-line installer and choose Docker mode instead.
