@mederos/desktop

Interactive npm channel for the Mederos Electron workstation.

npx @mederos/desktop
# or
npm install -g @mederos/desktop && mederos

Hardware-aware launch

On first run (or with mederos --probe), the CLI probes CPU / RAM / GPU, writes ~/.mederos/profile.json, and adjusts:

• Electron flags — disables Chromium GPU accel on low-tier or headless/no-GPU hosts
• V8 heap — NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=… scaled by tier
• Local node env — MESH_WORKER / RELAY_WORKER passed through to the sidecar process

Pass MEDEROS_SKIP_SETUP=1 to skip prompts while still applying a saved or freshly probed profile.

Honest limitations

• Requires Node.js already installed.
• No Start Menu / Dock integration.
• No silent auto-update (re-run npx / npm update -g).
• First run downloads the Electron binary (~100–200MB).

For the Just Works path (bundled local node + OS flaps), use the native installer from the Downloads page.
