 "title": "Run Minke in development mode from a source checkout",
 "page_title": "How to run Minke in development mode from a source checkout with Minke",
 "summary": "Stage the pinned DeepSeek Harness runtime and launch the Minke development app.",
 "who": "A developer who wants to read, modify, or contribute to Minke and needs a working development build on their own machine.",
 "problem": "Minke's runtime depends on a pinned DeepSeek Harness source, so a fresh checkout does not run until the runtime is prepared.",
 "outcome": "A local development Minke window opens, with desktop settings and Harness data kept in separate work/development directories that Git ignores.",
 "steps": [
  "Clone https://github.com/lencx/Minke and initialize the vendor/deepseek-harness submodule with `git submodule update --init`. (inferred, check the README)",
  "Install the repository dependencies with pnpm 11.28.5 on Node.js 24 or newer.",
  "Run `pnpm run harness:stage` to install and build the pinned DeepSeek Harness source and stage the runtime under runtime/host.",
  "Run `pnpm start` to refresh the Minke integration and launch the development app."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the lencx/Minke repository, set up a development build from a fresh checkout and report the result of each step. Expected output: a log summary showing that harness:stage completed and that pnpm start launched the app. Verify that the vendor/deepseek-harness submodule is populated before running any build command.",

 "difficulty": "Advanced",
 "time": "60 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README says the build must run on the same operating system and CPU architecture as the package you need, and cross-platform packaging from one host is not supported.",

  "A macOS, Windows x64, or Linux x64 computer",
  "Access to the official GitHub Releases page for Minke",
  "For remote access: a Tailscale account and Tailscale installed on the Minke computer and the phone",
  "For building from source: Git with submodule support, Node.js 24 or newer, and pnpm 11.28.5"
