The shortest path to your first session is by running the Docker container.

Run the Docker Container

See Running with Docker.

Connect a Model Provider

Either set OPENAI_API_KEY, connect your ChatGPT/OpenAI subscription, or connect Claude in Settings → Model Providers.

See Models and Providers.

Open a Project

Click on Open Project (the plus sign in the top bar), browse to an existing source directory, and add it.

Opening a project in Jupiter

Create a Workspace

Choose a new branch or an existing one. Jupiter creates a Git worktree for it.

That’s it. Create a session, give the agent some work, inspect the changes, and use the terminal when you need it.

Next, read Interface Tour and Workspaces and Git Worktrees.

Updating Jupiter

Before updating, make sure you still have the encryption key and back up ~/.jupiter (or the persistent Docker state directory).

Pull the latest published image, and restart Jupiter with the same state mount, source mounts, and encryption key:

docker pull judepereira/jupiter:latest

Note: Versioning will soon be introduced.
