1. Install the CLI
Checksum-verified binaries. Then scaffold config and wire git hooks.
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/momentiq-ai/cerebe/main/install.sh | sh cerebe --version cerebe install
Install is the workstation. The GitHub App is the platform.
2. Turn on the GitHub App
Install the Cerebe GitHub App on a repository. Every pull request runs the independent panel and posts one verdict as a Cerebe check. Start advisory. Require the check when you want it to gate merge.
3. Verify the workstation
cerebe doctor reports hooks, detected coding harnesses, and
config. All OK means the next commit will run the local critic and the next
push will be gated on its verdict.
cerebe doctor
What the hooks do
cerebe install writes them. Post-commit runs the critic in the
background and writes a per-commit verdict. Pre-push blocks if that verdict
has open blockers. A blocked push needs a named, recorded reason.
Then require the check.
Advisory posts a verdict on every pull request. Required means that check must be green to merge.
