Install Space
Install and run a Space locally—the environment where your agents work.
A Space is the environment where your agent runs and work gets done. Run one locally on your machine, or run the same Space through XO in the cloud.
Install a local Space
Run this command in a terminal:
curl -fsSL quirq.ai/install | shThe installer downloads or updates Space, reports available optional tools, and
starts your local Space at http://localhost:5002/space/.
Keep the terminal running while you use Space; press Ctrl-C to stop it.
The installer endpoint and its technical state directory retain the Quirq
name. Logs are stored at ~/.quirq/quirq.log, but the installed and running
environment is a Space.

Optional tools
The installer reports optional integrations individually. Node and npm enable
the agent CLI at boot, while GitHub CLI (gh) enables repository backup. If an
optional tool is missing, only the adjacent feature is unavailable.
Local or cloud: the runtime changes
A Space is the same environment in either place. Run it locally on your own machine, or run it through XO in the cloud. Agents work inside the Space; the runtime is the only difference.
Measure the work in your Space
quirqs measure verified work delivered inside a Space. Learn how to define outcomes, set budgets, verify captured state, and read the resulting ledger in How to integrate this today.
