Quickstart

Prerequisites

• Rust with rustup (the repo pins a toolchain in rust-toolchain.toml).

Build

git clone https://github.com/ArdurAI/mara.git
cd mara
cargo build --release -p mara-cli

The mara binary is at target/release/mara.

Configure

Copy an example from docs/quickstarts/ or start from the checked-in sample:

• examples/mara.toml

Adjust http_listen ports, file paths, and upstream URLs for your machine.

Run

./target/release/mara run --config /path/to/mara.toml

Validate configuration without starting pipelines:

./target/release/mara validate --config /path/to/mara.toml

Next steps

• Ollama + proxy smoke: see scripts/realworld/ollama_cloud_smoke.sh (script header documents environment variables).
• Open verification bundles: docs/captured/open-verification/README.md

cargo install from crates.io is planned for post–1.0 releases; until then, build from source.
