Curie

Curie is the desktop companion that runs on your machine. It captures the screen with consent, plans the next move, and operates the computer through pixels and inputs. Every action is rooted to a verified frame and remains replayable.

Curie ships with the Scalaris Toolbox. Install Toolbox, sign in to your Lab account, then enable Curie from the Apps tab. Curie auto-detects Atlas if it is already running locally.

# Toolbox installs Curie, Atlas and Laxus
curl -fsSL https://scalarislab.com/install/toolbox | sh

# Once installed:
toolbox install curie
toolbox enable curie

On launch Curie asks for screen and input permissions. Permissions are revocable per task. The first run walks through a guided tour of the perception loop and a sample three-step task.

• Screen capture is consent-gated, never always-on.
• Inputs are simulated through OS APIs, never injected blindly.
• Every step writes a JSON trace you can replay or veto.

You describe the task in plain English, right in the app. Curie compiles it into a typed plan: each step references a verified UI element and an expected post-condition. Failed conditions trigger a re-plan, you stay in the loop and can veto any step.

Curie defaults to local routing through Atlas. No screenshots, no clicks, no plans leave the machine unless you explicitly switch a task to a hosted model. The egress meter in Toolbox is the source of truth.

Common gotchas and how to recover. If something is not in this list, the replay archive on disk is your friend, every plan step is reproducible.

• Screen permission denied, re-grant from System Settings › Privacy › Screen Recording.
• Plan loops on the same step, check the post-condition; ambiguous ones cause re-plans.
• No Atlas detected, start it with `atlas serve` or set the endpoint in Toolbox › Curie.
