starcode — a fork of starcode

This repository is michaelvu1207/starcode, a personal fork of pingdotgg/t3code. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by T3 Tools. Everything below this banner is upstream's README, kept as-is.

• Working branch is hub, not main — main tracks upstream. hub is the GitHub default branch so the repo lands on the fork's actual code.
• What the fork adds: a multi-machine agent hub — pair several machines over a tailnet and drive agent work on all of them from one client. Fork-specific design notes, the architecture map, and the rollout runbook live in docs/fork/ (start with PLAN.md).
• The user-facing brand is starcode (lowercase). Internal identifiers deliberately still say t3 / starcode — package names, env vars, bundle ids, URL schemes, storage keys. Renaming those churns infrastructure for zero daily value and is tracked as a release-pipeline concern in docs/fork/NOTES-mapper-addendum.md §7.7.
• Do not publish from this fork. It still ships under upstream's npm package name t3, so self-update is hard-disabled (apps/server/src/cloud/forkSwitches.ts, FORK_DISABLE_SELF_UPDATE) to stop any install path from replacing the fork's server with upstream's published build.
