Getting Started with Ryvos in 5 Minutes

Getting Started with Ryvos in 5 Minutes Ryvos is an open-source AI coding assistant and agent runtime built in Rust. One binary, 15–30 MB RAM, 14 LLM providers — runs on your own hardware. You can have a fully functional AI coding assistant running locally in the time it takes to make coffee. Here's exactly how. Prerequisites Linux or macOS (Windows support coming — see roadmap ) An LLM API key — OR a local Ollama instance (free, no account needed) curl and sh (pre-installed on every *nix system) Step 1 — Install (30 seconds) curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ryvos/ryvos/main/install.sh | sh That's it. The installer: Downloads the correct binary for your OS and architecture Places it in ~/.local/bin/ryvos (added to your PATH automatically) Creates ~/.ryvos/ for config and data Verify it worked: ryvos --version # ryvos 0.5.0 No Rust required. The install script downloads a pre-built binary. You don't need a Rust toolchain unless you want to build from source. Step 2 — Connect
