Managoat Sprite v0.1.0 (preview)

Install a conversations API on an existing Sprite with one command.

This first preview distribution includes Linux AMD64 and ARM64 archives with
bundled Erlang/OTP, plus SHA-256 checksum files. Codex is the runtime with live
inference and continuation evidence. Claude is implemented but has not yet
passed the same live qualification.

Inside your Sprite, with OPENAI_API_KEY exported:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/managoat/manasprites/v0.1.0/install.sh | sh -s -- \
  --runtime codex --credential-env OPENAI_API_KEY --workspace /home/sprite/project

The installer provisions pinned agent tools, persists the selected credential,
creates a separate client API key, starts the service, and checks local readiness.
Node.js/npm, Python 3.12+, curl, tar, sha256sum, and flock must be available.

Includes authenticated HTTP and SSE, SQLite history, follow-up sessions,
permission answers, cancellation, and local management commands. One shared
workspace and one active turn per installation. The service resumes saved
sessions on explicit follow-up; ambiguous work is marked interrupted after a
crash and is never automatically replayed.

This is a prerelease. Remaining qualification includes Claude parity, direct URL
streaming, browser UI integration, observed idle sleep/cold wake, and the full
recovery/resource fault matrix. Linux ARM64 builds and tests do not establish
live ARM64 Sprite qualification.

See the README for setup and
acceptance record
for validation evidence and remaining work.

Manasprites 0.2.0 (preview)

Manasprites 0.2.0 (preview)

The host command is now manasprites, freeing the managoat name for other tools.

Install on macOS or Linux without cloning the repository:

curl -fsSL https://github.com/managoat/manasprites/releases/download/cli-v0.2.0/install-cli.sh | sh
export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"

Requires Python 3.9+ and curl. Provisioning also requires an authenticated
Sprites CLI; supply an inference API key when creating your agent.

manasprites sprite create --file agent.json
manasprites prompt "Build a reading-list CLI and test it."
manasprites prompt --continue "Add search."

The host CLI creates a Sprite, clones an optional repository, imports selected
environment variables, runs bootstrap, and installs the pinned Sprite service.
It saves connection details locally and streams conversations with prompt,
conversations, and watch.

One Python archive supports macOS and Linux. The installer verifies its SHA-256,
installs into ~/.local, and atomically updates its own launcher. Use
sh -s -- --prefix /path/to/prefix after the pipe for another location. Repeating
the command updates the CLI while preserving saved Sprite connections.

This release is a clean rename with no managoat command alias. Local client
state lives under ~/.local/share/manasprites (MANASPRITES_ROOT overrides it).

This release versions the host CLI separately from the Sprite service, which
remains pinned to v0.1.0. It does not update an existing agent or service.
Tool permission requests are displayed; answering them still uses the HTTP API.
Codex has live inference qualification; Claude qualification remains pending.

See setup,
configuration,
and the acceptance record.
