(Planning, coding, Docker, memory updates — handled)

**Own Your Context & Memory Forever**  
(Vector DB + markdown plans that never vanish)

## Core Specs

- Node-graph workflow editor with parallel execution, loops, and checkpoints
- Multi-agent system with per-agent integrations and orchestrator escalation
- Integrated terminal, Monaco code editor, and Git pane
- Training system — capture conversations and fine-tune models
- Calendar engine with auto-wake events
- Docker workspaces with container management and shell access
- n8n integration — search/import thousands of templates
- Live monitoring dashboard with per-endpoint graphs
- Multiple theme presets (default, nord, ocean, protocol) with dark/light modes

## Install

One command. Works on **macOS**, **Linux**, and **Windows** (Git Bash or WSL).

```bash
curl -fsSL https://sulladesktop.com/install.sh | sh
```

**What it does:**
1. Downloads the latest pre-built release from GitHub
2. Installs the app (DMG/ZIP on macOS, MSI on Windows, ZIP on Linux)
3. Handles macOS Gatekeeper automatically (no "damaged app" warnings)

No build tools required — just `curl`.

> **Developer?** Use `install-dev.sh` to build from source instead.

### Manual install

```bash
git clone https://github.com/merchantprotocol/sulla-desktop.git
cd sulla-desktop
yarn install
NODE_OPTIONS="--max-old-space-size=12288" yarn build
npx electron .
```

### After install

Step 1 — Connect any LLM (local Ollama or remote API)  
Step 2 — Start delegating

## Your No-Hassle Ownership Promise

100% source-available. No subscriptions. No usage caps. No data sharing.
Install it, run it, modify it — it’s yours.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How much hardware do I need?**  
8 GB RAM minimum (runs well), 16 GB+ ideal for faster inference. Works on most modern laptops/desktops.

**How fast can I expect real results?**  
Workflow velocity and delegation confidence build in 7–30 days of consistent use. Results scale with your task volume.

**Is it fully local?**  
Core agent, memory, tools, and execution run 100% on your machine. LLM inference can be local (Ollama) or remote (your choice for speed/privacy balance).

**How do I extend it?**
Build custom workflow nodes, add tool integrations, or create new agent configurations. Everything is modular and documented.

**Who is this really for?**  
Anyone who lives in n8n, codes by vibe, or has more high-leverage tasks than time — and wants to stop paying specialists to do what their own machine can handle.

Install Sulla Desktop today.  
You deserve an assistant that scales with you, not against you.
