Download Tactus
The desktop environment for building, running, and debugging Tactus agents.
Warning: Alpha Version
The version number starts with 0., which means this is an alpha release. The feature set is not complete and is changing rapidly. I am moving fast and breaking things, making breaking changes literally every day.
If you're willing to sign up for an adventure, you have a chance to get early, high-level support and shape the future of the language, but I can't make any guarantees about stability, especially over the next couple of months.
Tactus is already a mission-critical technology in production for my own projects, but it is not publicly supported yet—use it at your own risk.
Note on Desktop Apps: Please note that the Electron apps are less tested than running the web application through Node. They share a common codebase, but have platform differences. My development focus is primarily on the Node web application.

Install Tactus for Nerds
You don’t need the Electron app. You can run agents via the CLI, run the web IDE locally, or edit .tac files in VS Code.
Option 1: Tactus CLI
Install the Python package to run agents from your terminal. This is the core runtime. Docker is required for the default sandboxed execution mode.
Option 2: Web IDE Source
Prefer the visual IDE but hate Electron? Run the Node.js web application directly from source.
Option 3: VS Code Extension
Get syntax highlighting, real-time validation, and code intelligence for .tac files. Install the extension from the marketplace; optional LSP server for advanced features.
