Neuron Soul CI / build (push) Failing after 12m1s
Neuron Soul CI / deploy (push) Failing after 14m48s
Merge origin/main into local main. Keep both on the three conflicts.
v0-neuron is in this history. origin/main architecture and soul are in too. Sort later.

### Installation
```bash
# YOLO
curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash
# Package managers
npm i -g opencode-ai@latest # or bun/pnpm/yarn
scoop install opencode # Windows
choco install opencode # Windows
brew install anomalyco/tap/opencode # macOS and Linux (recommended, always up to date)
brew install opencode # macOS and Linux (official brew formula, updated less)
sudo pacman -S opencode # Arch Linux (Stable)
paru -S opencode-bin # Arch Linux (Latest from AUR)
mise use -g opencode # Any OS
nix run nixpkgs#opencode # or github:anomalyco/opencode for latest dev branch
```
> [!TIP]
> Remove versions older than 0.1.x before installing.
### Desktop App (BETA)
OpenCode is also available as a desktop application. Download directly from the [releases page](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode/releases) or [opencode.ai/download](https://opencode.ai/download).
| Platform | Download |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| macOS (Apple Silicon) | `opencode-desktop-mac-arm64.dmg` |
| macOS (Intel) | `opencode-desktop-mac-x64.dmg` |
| Windows | `opencode-desktop-windows-x64.exe` |
| Linux | `.deb`, `.rpm`, or `.AppImage` |
```bash
# macOS (Homebrew)
brew install --cask opencode-desktop
# Windows (Scoop)
scoop bucket add extras; scoop install extras/opencode-desktop
```
#### Installation Directory
The install script respects the following priority order for the installation path:
1. `$OPENCODE_INSTALL_DIR` - Custom installation directory
2. `$XDG_BIN_DIR` - XDG Base Directory Specification compliant path
3. `$HOME/bin` - Standard user binary directory (if it exists or can be created)
4. `$HOME/.opencode/bin` - Default fallback
```bash
# Examples
OPENCODE_INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local/bin curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash
XDG_BIN_DIR=$HOME/.local/bin curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash
```
### Agents
OpenCode includes two built-in agents you can switch between with the `Tab` key.
- **build** - Default, full-access agent for development work
- **plan** - Read-only agent for analysis and code exploration
- Denies file edits by default
- Asks permission before running bash commands
- Ideal for exploring unfamiliar codebases or planning changes
Also included is a **general** subagent for complex searches and multistep tasks.
This is used internally and can be invoked using `@general` in messages.
Learn more about [agents](https://opencode.ai/docs/agents).
### Documentation
For more info on how to configure OpenCode, [**head over to our docs**](https://opencode.ai/docs).
### Contributing
If you're interested in contributing to OpenCode, please read our [contributing docs](./CONTRIBUTING.md) before submitting a pull request.
### Building on OpenCode
If you are working on a project that's related to OpenCode and is using "opencode" as part of its name, for example "opencode-dashboard" or "opencode-mobile", please add a note to your README to clarify that it is not built by the OpenCode team and is not affiliated with us in any way.

# ---- keep both, sort later: local main (v0) above, origin/main below ----
# neuron
The canonical CGI substrate: the **soul** (the running agent), the **engram** (its memory
graph), and the MCP proxy/wrapper that expose it. See `AGENTS.md` for detail, including
the audit-verified local build/regenerate recipe and known local-build gotchas.
## Quick local build
```bash
# 1. dist/soul.c must match current .el sources — this refuses otherwise:
bash tools/build-soul-from-dist.sh dist/neuron
# 2. If it refuses (stale amalgam), regenerate first — see AGENTS.md's
# "Build / regenerate dist/soul.c" section for the full, gotcha-laden recipe.
```
For a full local dev stack (soul + engram + mcp-wrapper + mcp-proxy, wired into Claude
Code) see `neuron-dev-setup/README.md` instead — this repo alone only builds the soul.
## Code vs. Artifact
- **Authored source:** `*.el` + `*.elh` at the repo root plus `cli/`, `council/`,
`connectd/`, `mcp-proxy/`, `mcp-wrapper/` — edit here.
- **Artifacts (do not hand-edit):** `dist/soul.c` (generated single-TU amalgam —
regenerate via the recipe in `AGENTS.md`, then `tools/soulc-stamp.sh --write`) and
the `dist/neuron` binary it compiles to.
- **Release:** git tag `neuron-vX.Y.Z` on this repo. No `releases/` folders.
See org policy: `docs/CODE-VS-ARTIFACT.md`.
