Run NightCouncil your way.

The desktop client wraps the full experience. Prefer the browser? Open the web app. Prefer control? Build the engine from source and self-host it.

Desktop builds are published on GitHub Releases and built in the open by CI on every tagged version.

What you'll need

  • A model provider API key (Claude, OpenAI, xAI, Moonshot, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint) — or an MCP-native tool like Cursor, Cline, or Windsurf.
  • A GitHub repository or local folder to work over.
  • Node.js 20+ if you self-host the engine from source.

Self-host from source

Clone, install, and run the engine and web client locally:

git clone https://github.com/QtadaGM/NightCouncil
cd NightCouncil
pnpm install
cp .env.local.example .env.local
pnpm dev

Engine on :8787, web client on :3000.
