v0.1 is experimental.

Behavior may change. Local execution is not a security sandbox, so review the permissions granted to coding agents and start with a repository you can restore.

Install and verify

Put Dispatch on your PATH.

These commands match the Core README. They verify the archive, then install Dispatch in $HOME/.local/bin.

macOS · Apple Silicon
