Getting started
Three steps and no scaffolding. This guide takes you from a downloaded install to a goal being built against a real repository.
Set it up#
- InstallmacOS, Windows or Linux. Nothing is gated behind an account — the download is free to take and keep.
- Sign inOne command signs you in against the control plane. That is an entitlement check, not an upload of anything you own.
- Open the dashboardThe first run shows the onboarding wizard, which creates your office of agents and takes your first project.
Add an existing repository#
Or use the dashboard, which does the same thing with the same indexing flow.
$ tharas projects add myproject /path/to/your/project $ tharas index builds the memory index for this repository $ tharas map sanity check: what the planner can see
Give it a goal#
For anything non-trivial, use a goal rather than a direct build. A goal plans the work first — a specification and a task list — and then builds it. There is nothing to approve: you see each task as it goes.
A budget is worth setting on the first run. It bounds the work rather than the quality — the governor stops a run that has stopped making progress, not one that is simply taking its time.
The command#
$ tharas goal "Add CSV export to the reports page" --budget 90m plan ready — building now $ tharas goals every goal of this project, and how each one ended
Common questions
Do I need an API key of my own?
No. Model access is part of your plan and routing picks the model per call — there is no key to create or paste.
Can I try it without a subscription?
The download is free and yours to keep. A subscription is what starts new work.
