Agent Install

Use this page when you want an AI agent to install and configure Demarkus for you.

Copy/Paste Brief for Agents

Install and configure Demarkus on this machine.

Goals:
1. If on macOS, prefer building from source first (until signed binaries are available).
2. Otherwise, use the official install script from:
   https://raw.githubusercontent.com/latebit-io/demarkus/main/install.sh
3. Support both:
   - Let's Encrypt mode (if a domain is provided)
   - self-signed/no-official-cert mode (if no domain is provided)
4. Start demarkus-server and verify client connectivity.
5. If requested, configure MCP using demarkus-mcp and create/update .mcp.json.
6. Report exactly what was installed, where configs were written, and how to run/stop services.

Constraints:
- Do not assume trusted TLS certs are available.
- For self-signed/local certs, use client --insecure where needed.
- Keep commands idempotent and explain any destructive steps before running them.

Human Inputs to Provide

Target mode:
- public (with domain + Let’s Encrypt)
- private/local (self-signed/dev cert)
Operating system (macOS or Linux)
Desired content root path (for example /srv/site or ./content)
Whether MCP should be configured now (yes/no)
If MCP = yes: host + token values

Minimal Verification Checklist

demarkus-server starts successfully.
CLI fetch works:
- ./client/bin/demarkus --insecure mark://localhost:6309/index.md (self-signed/local)
- or without --insecure when using trusted TLS.
If MCP configured:
- demarkus-mcp can initialize and mark_list works.
