#Get started

Choose a setup below.

A Linux server or VM runs Trina AX with dedicated service accounts and OS isolation.

ItemRequirement
OSDebian 13 recommended; Debian 12 or Ubuntu 24.04
CPUamd64 with SSE4.2, or arm64
Memory and disk4 GB RAM recommended; at least 20 GB disk plus your files, history and backups
Systemsystemd with cgroup v2. A plain Docker container is not supported.
Accesssudo, curl, tar and Python 3 for the checksum check
  1. Download and verify the kit

    Download TrinaAX-server-<version>-linux-<arch>.tar.gz and SHA256SUMS from the latest release, compare the checksum, and unpack it. The Linux guide has a copy-paste script.

  2. Check the bundle and the machine
    ./app/$V/root/mycel-ctl verify-bundle "./app/$V"
    sudo ./install-linux.sh check --from .
    
  3. Install
    sudo ./install-linux.sh install --from . --engine claude --engine codex
    sudo mycel-ctl status
    

    The installer creates the service accounts, installs into /var/lib/mycel and sets up the sandbox, firewall and systemd units. The app listens on 127.0.0.1:47820.

  4. Create the owner

    Open an SSH tunnel (ssh -L 47820:127.0.0.1:47820 <server>), read the setup code from /var/lib/mycel/setup/code on the server, and open the setup page.

  5. Give it an HTTPS address

    Put a tunnel or reverse proxy in front of 127.0.0.1:47820, then register its host name with sudo ./install-linux.sh repair --public-host team.example.com.

Warning

Do not use --allow-unsigned for published releases. It is only for kits you built yourself.

#After installing

Follow the first-week order: permissions → AI connection → invite the team → first skill → first backup. Read the admin guide.
