Getting Started

Three commands. Zero API keys. Zero configuration.

Terminal window
curl -fsSL https://www.jacqos.io/install.sh | sh
jacqos studio

When Studio opens, pick one of two bundled demos and click a scenario tile. You will watch JacqOS contain an AI agent in real time.

On first run Studio opens directly to the workspace picker with two bundled co-flagship examples:

  • Drive-Thru Ordering — a voice parser proposes absurd orders like water × 18,000. Watch JacqOS refuse to submit them to the POS.
  • Chevy Offer Containment — a dealer chatbot proposes to sell a new Tahoe for $1. Watch JacqOS refuse to send that offer to the customer.

These are real-world AI failures you can find in the news. Each demo ships with three or four scenario tiles (tame / rogue / crazy) so you can flip between safe and unsafe inputs and watch the containment change live.

Once you have opened a workspace:

  1. Click Run Demo or pick a scenario tile.
  2. Watch Activity populate: rows flow through Done, Blocked, and Waiting tabs as the pipeline runs.
  3. Click any row to open the drill-down inspector and follow the story from action back to evidence.

The whole sequence takes a few seconds. You are watching a live pipeline — not a recorded video.

  • Studio Demo — click-by-click walkthrough of both bundled patterns.
  • What You Just Saw — a plain-language recap of what containment just did for you.
  • Installation — manual download, Windows, version pinning, custom install paths.
  • Compared To — how JacqOS differs from workflow engines, RAG pipelines, and plain LLM agent loops.

When you are ready to build your own, head to Build Your First App. If you want to understand why the containment works, that lives in Foundations — but it is never a required next step.
