The script downloads the executable for your operating system and architecture (Linux x64 and arm64, macOS arm64 and x64) from the latest GitHub Release, checks it against SHA256SUMS, and installs it to ~/.local/bin. Set CARE_VOICE_VERSION=v0.2.0 to pin a release, or CARE_VOICE_INSTALL_DIR to install somewhere else. For Windows, download care-voice-windows-x64.exe from the releases page.
docker run --rm -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 ghcr.io/superintelligenceco/care-voice:latest
The image runs the caregiver dashboard on port 8080. It is built for linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 and signed with cosign.
