Beginner Track

Use this path if you want a minimal, low-friction understanding of AE and a verified install.

Prerequisites

• macOS or Linux terminal access
• curl available

Step 1: Install

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fluent-meaning-symbiotic/agentic_executables/main/install.sh | bash

Step 2: Verify

ae definition

Expected result:

• Command succeeds with structured output.
• You see AE definition metadata.

Step 3: Understand one real action

ae instructions --context library --action bootstrap

This command shows how AE turns documentation into executable runbooks.

You are done when both commands complete and you can explain AE in one sentence: "AE turns domain knowledge into deterministic instructions that humans and agents execute the same way — for any project type."

If something fails

• Go to Install and verify.
• Then check Troubleshooting.
