This guide walks you through installing a minimal agentic development environment on your local laptop using macOS (Apple Silicon). The goal is to get a basic system working with CrewAI, n8n, Claude Code (optional). These tools will coordinate agents that help build Vibelets, ghost pages, and wiki content as part of the Hitchhikers Project.
This setup assumes you already have Homebrew and pyenv installed. You will be using both together with the uv package manager.
1. Install Python Version 1. Install uv (Python tool manager) 1. Install CrewAI 1. Install n8n for agent orchestration 1. Optional: Install Claude Code
# Step 6 — Install Git and set up Yam Create folders: ``` agents/ plans/ outputs/ logs/ yam/ ```
# Final Steps Once installed: - Create a simple agent plan in Yam or Markdown - Use CrewAI or Claude to parse and execute the plan - Send results to a ghost page or n8n workflow - Review, sign, and publish via Git or Federated Wiki You now have the foundation of a fully local agentic system with human-in-the-loop workflows and secure traceable outputs.
