 "page_title": "How to add a worker on a second Mac or Linux machine with Wemux",
 "summary": "Install and pair a remote worker using the command generated in the console's Add Executor dialog.",
 "who": "A team lead with spare Mac or Linux machines who wants agent work to run on those machines instead of the server.",
 "problem": "Coding agents need a machine with your repos and credentials, which is often not the control plane host.",
 "outcome": "A registered worker service on another machine that is ready to receive tasks.",
 "steps": [
  "Open the control plane console and go to Execution, then choose Add Executor.",
  "Copy the generated install command. It has the form `curl -fsSL https://<server>/install | bash -s -- --pairing-code '<code>' --server-url '<url>'`. (inferred, check the README)",
  "On the worker machine, run the copied command in a macOS or Linux shell.",
  "Wait for the install to finish; the command installs, pairs, registers and starts the worker service.",
  "Confirm the new worker appears in the console's Execution view."
 ],
