Main
Use
shanin interactive mode for terminal chat, and one-shot mode for scripted Q&A and quick tasks.Set up your provider with
shan --setup(cloud gateway, self-hosted gateway, or local Ollama per README).Treat tools as first-class: file ops, archives, process management, and optional MCP integrations via config.
Use named agents (
--agent) to isolate instructions/memory for separate roles (ops-bot, writer, etc.).
Source-backed notes
- README lists install options (npm, install script, Go build) and verifies with
shan --help. - README includes a quick start with interactive mode, one-shot mode, named agents, and setup command.
FAQ
- Do I need Shannon Cloud?: No — README describes self-hosted gateway and local Ollama options as alternatives.
- How do I keep runs reproducible?: Use named agents and explicit commands; keep provider settings stable.
- Is there an MCP angle?: README mentions MCP client integrations via configuration for third-party tools.
