Quickstart

Install prerequisites: Node ≥20, tmux, and at least Claude Code. See Requirements for the full list and one-liners.
Clone and run setup
Terminal window
```
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/DerRemo/penates.git
cd penates
chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh
```
setup.sh installs dependencies, writes a .env with a random auth token, sets up auto-start, and launches the server.
Open the hub at http://localhost:3333. On first visit the browser asks for the token. It’s the AUTH_TOKEN value in penates/.env (look it up any time with grep AUTH_TOKEN penates/.env).
Start a session from the dashboard, pick a CLI, and you’re in.
