**CRITICAL: Never use `Read`, `Edit`, or `Write` tools on `~/.cyrus/.env` or any file inside `~/.cyrus/`. Use only `Bash` commands (`grep`, `printf >>`, etc.) to interact with env files — secrets must never be read into the conversation context.**
# Setup Launch
Prints a summary of the completed setup and offers to start Cyrus.
## Step 1: Gather Configuration
Read current state:
```bash
# Base URL
grep '^CYRUS_BASE_URL=' ~/.cyrus/.env 2>/dev/null | cut -d= -f2-
# Linear
grep -c '^LINEAR_CLIENT_ID=' ~/.cyrus/.env 2>/dev/null
# GitHub
gh auth status 2>&1 | head -1
# Slack
grep -c '^SLACK_BOT_TOKEN=' ~/.cyrus/.env 2>/dev/null
# Repositories
cat ~/.cyrus/config.json 2>/dev/null
# Claude auth
grep -c -E '^(ANTHROPIC_API_KEY|CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN)=' ~/.cyrus/.env 2>/dev/null
```
## Step 2: Print Summary
Print a formatted summary:
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Cyrus Setup Complete │
├─────────────────────────────────────┤
│ │
│ Endpoint: https://your-url.com │
│ Claude: ✓ API key configured │
│ │
│ Surfaces: │
│ Linear: ✓ Workspace connected │
│ GitHub: ✓ CLI authenticated │
│ Slack: ✓ Bot configured │
│ │
│ Repositories: │
│ • yourorg/yourrepo │
│ • yourorg/another-repo │
│ │
└─────────────────────────────────────┘
```
Use ✓ for configured items and ✗ for skipped/unconfigured items.
## Step 3: Make Cyrus Persistent
Cyrus needs to run as a background process so it stays alive and restarts after reboots. **Use the `AskUserQuestion` tool if available** to ask:
> **How would you like to keep Cyrus running in the background?**
>
> 1. **pm2** (recommended) — Node.js process manager. Simple to set up, auto-restarts on crash, log management built in. Best for most users.
> 2. **systemd** (Linux only) — OS-level service manager. Starts on boot automatically, managed with `systemctl`. Best for dedicated Linux servers.
> 3. **Neither** — just run `cyrus` in the foreground for now (you can set up persistence later).
### Option 1: pm2
The agent should run all of these commands directly:
1. Check if pm2 is installed (`which pm2`). If not, install it (`npm install -g pm2`).
2. Start Cyrus: `pm2 start cyrus --name cyrus`
3. Save the process list: `pm2 save`
4. Run `pm2 startup` — this prints a system-specific command. The agent should run that output command too (it typically requires `sudo`).
After setup, inform the user of useful commands:
- `pm2 logs cyrus` — view logs
- `pm2 restart cyrus` — restart
- `pm2 stop cyrus` — stop
### Option 2: systemd (Linux only)
The agent should run all of these commands directly:
1. Resolve the actual values for the service file:
```bash
CYRUS_BIN=$(which cyrus)
CYRUS_USER=$(whoami)
```
2. Write the service file:
```bash
sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/cyrus.service > /dev/null << EOF
[Unit]
Description=Cyrus AI Agent
After=network.target
[Service]
Type=simple
User=$CYRUS_USER
EnvironmentFile=/home/$CYRUS_USER/.cyrus/.env
ExecStart=$CYRUS_BIN
Restart=always
RestartSec=10
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
EOF
```
3. Enable and start:
```bash
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable cyrus
sudo systemctl start cyrus
```
After setup, inform the user of useful commands:
- `sudo systemctl status cyrus` — check status
- `sudo journalctl -u cyrus -f` — view logs
- `sudo systemctl restart cyrus` — restart
### Option 3: Foreground
Run directly:
```bash
cyrus
```
## Step 4: Start ngrok (if applicable)
If the user configured ngrok in the endpoint step, the agent should start it:
```bash
ngrok start cyrus
```
If using pm2, also make ngrok persistent:
```bash
pm2 start "ngrok start cyrus" --name ngrok
pm2 save
```
## Step 5: Sandbox CA Certificate Trust (if sandbox enabled)
If the user's `~/.cyrus/config.json` has `sandbox.enabled: true`, check whether the egress proxy CA certificate is trusted in the system keychain.
**Check if sandbox is enabled:**
```bash
grep -o '"enabled":\s*true' ~/.cyrus/config.json 2>/dev/null | head -1
```
If sandbox is enabled, check trust status:
```bash
# macOS — check System keychain for the Cyrus CA
security find-certificate -c "Cyrus Egress Proxy CA" /Library/Keychains/System.keychain 2>&1
```
- If the cert is found (exit code 0): report ✓ trusted. Offer to set `sandbox.systemWideCert: true` in config.json to skip per-session cert env vars.
- If not found (exit code 44): inform the user and offer to run the trust command:
```bash
sudo security add-trusted-cert -d -r trustRoot -k /Library/Keychains/System.keychain ~/.cyrus/certs/cyrus-egress-ca.pem
```
On Linux, check with `test -f /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/cyrus-egress-ca.crt`. If not present:
```bash
sudo cp ~/.cyrus/certs/cyrus-egress-ca.pem /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/cyrus-egress-ca.crt
sudo update-ca-certificates
```
After trusting system-wide, offer to set `sandbox.systemWideCert: true` in config.json. This skips per-session cert env vars (`NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS`, `GIT_SSL_CAINFO`, etc.) since the OS cert store handles trust for all tools.
If the user declines system-wide trust, Cyrus still works — it sets cert env vars per-session. But some tools (Bun, .NET, curl on macOS with SecureTransport) will only work with system-wide trust.
## Step 6: Verify Running
Once Cyrus starts, verify it's listening:
```bash
curl -s http://localhost:3456/status
```
Should return `{"status":"idle"}` or similar.
> Then try assigning a Linear issue to Cyrus, or @mentioning it in Slack, to verify the full pipeline works!
## Completion
> ✓ Cyrus is running and ready. Assign a Linear issue or @mention in Slack to test it out!
