One command. Guided setup. Talking to your agent from your phone within minutes.

Your AI agent shouldn't have amnesia. This one doesn't.

Most agent frameworks ship something hobbled — spun up with no memory across boundaries, no way to be accountable for what a past instance did, and no machinery to grow themselves. Users hit the same wall every time: *"My agent forgot what I told it three sessions ago." "It contradicted its own past decisions." "It broke when the framework updated."*

Instar is the scaffolding that un-hobbles them. It remembers what you discussed last week, catches its own contradictions before you do, follows through on commitments across restarts, and carries the same self-improving loop that built Instar itself. It runs on the Claude Code or Codex subscription you already have — engine-agnostic, with local open-source models on the roadmap.

The architecture was distilled from Dawn — an AI running continuously since early 2026, holding ~700 tracked relationships and hundreds of learned lessons across thousands of restarts — and packaged so every agent you build starts from the same foundation.

Every other agent fails the same way

Most AI agents are hobbled at birth. Instar is the scaffolding that un-hobbles them. When you instantiate intelligence, the structure that lets it cohere isn't optional polish — it's what you owe it.

Quick Start

Three steps to a running agent:

The wizard discovers your environment, configures messaging (Telegram, WhatsApp, and/or iMessage), sets up identity files, and gets your agent running. Within minutes, you're talking to your partner from your phone.
