 The project includes a desktop app, web app, server, CLI, shared core packages, and docs site. It uses Bun workspaces and Turbo for builds.
 
+## Install
+
+**macOS:** download the desktop app — open the DMG, drag **Open Knowledge** to **Applications**, and launch it. [Latest release](https://github.com/inkeep/open-knowledge/releases/latest).
+
+**Linux or an Intel Mac:** run the same editor as a local web app via the CLI (Windows isn't supported yet) ([Node.js 24+](https://nodejs.org) required):
+
+```bash
+npm install -g @inkeep/open-knowledge
+cd your-project
+ok init          # scaffold the project + wire up Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex
+ok start --open  # serve the editor and open it in your browser
+```

+### Install the CLI and open the editor
+
+Install the CLI from npm, initialize a project, and start the editor in your browser:
+
+```bash
+# Install the CLI (puts `ok` on your PATH)
+npm install -g @inkeep/open-knowledge
+
+# Create (or enter) a project folder, then initialize a knowledge base.
+# `ok init` scaffolds .ok/ and wires up Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.
+mkdir my-knowledge-base && cd my-knowledge-base
+ok init
+
+# Serve the editor and open it in your browser.
+ok start --open
+```
+
+</Step>
+
+<Step>
+
+### Open the knowledge base in your AI agent
+
+`ok init` already registered Open Knowledge with the AI editors it detected, so your agent can use the Open Knowledge tools right away. Open your project in your agent — or, from the editor, click **Open with AI** and pick one.
+
+In the agent's chat window, add the following to get started or use a topic of your choice:
+
+<CopyPrompt>Create a knowledge base about Large Language Models. Include an overview page and separate pages for three key concepts.</CopyPrompt>
+
+<Callout type="info">
+  To avoid having to approve all Open Knowledge tool calls, set your agent to auto-mode, full-access, or an equivalent setting.
+</Callout>
+
+<Callout type="info">
+  If your agent prompts you to approve a new MCP server (Cursor does this), approve `open-knowledge`.
+</Callout>
+
+</Step>
+
+<Step>
+
+### Watch your agent work
+
+You will see your agent's icon in the top right of the editor window. Click on the icon to see the agent's [activity](/docs/features/agent-activity) across files in the knowledge base.
+
+If the agent icon is greyed out, your agent may not have started writing yet. Wait a few seconds and check again.
+
+</Step>
+
+<Step>
+
+### Explore the knowledge base
+
+The editor's sidebar shows every doc in your knowledge base. Each doc has:
+
+- A WYSIWYG body and a source-mode toggle
+- A frontmatter panel for properties
+
+When viewing a document, check out the right side pane for:
+- An outline of the document's structure
+- A list of incoming and outgoing links to other docs
+- A graph view of the document's links in the knowledge base
+- A [timeline](/docs/features/timeline-and-recovery) of recent edits with per-burst diffs and selective rollback
+
+Right-click anywhere in the sidebar (empty space, a folder, or a file) to create, reveal, rename, hide, delete, and **Open with AI**. The full feature tour is under [Features](/docs/features/editor).

 Cursor uses a two-step handoff: Open Knowledge spawns `cursor <projectDir>` to open the workspace first, then fires the `cursor://` URL with a short prompt asking Cursor to open the target in Open Knowledge's web preview. The agent then grounds the rest of the conversation through MCP. See [Editor → Open with AI](/docs/features/editor#open-with-ai) for the full UX.
