For Developers

You need the Claude Code CLI (claude command) installed. That’s it.

Run:

curl -fsSL https://tandemu.dev/install.sh | bash

The installer will:

1. Ask whether you’re connecting to Tandemu Cloud or a self-hosted instance
2. Open your browser for authentication
3. Configure telemetry, permissions, and memory in ~/.claude/settings.json
4. Install Tandemu skills (/morning, /finish, /pause, /standup, /blockers)
5. Set up the MCP memory server for persistent context

After that, open any project and run /morning to get started.

Prerequisites

• Claude Code CLI — Install Claude Code 
• python3 — for configuration (pre-installed on macOS/Linux)
• curl — for downloading (pre-installed on macOS/Linux)

Re-authenticate

If your token expires or you need to switch organizations, run the installer again:

curl -fsSL https://tandemu.dev/install.sh | bash

It will detect your existing config and re-authorize.

Uninstall

# Remove skills
rm -rf ~/.claude/skills/{morning,finish,pause,standup,blockers}
 
# Remove config
rm -f ~/.claude/tandemu.json
rm -f ~/.claude/tandemu-active-task.json
 
# Remove MCP server
rm -rf ~/.tandemu

For Platform Administrators

To deploy Tandemu for your team (self-hosted), you need Docker and Docker Compose.

Quick Deploy

git clone https://github.com/anthropics/tandemu.git
cd tandemu
docker compose up --build -d

This starts all services:

Apply Migrations

for f in packages/database/src/migrations/*.sql; do
  docker exec -i tandemu-postgres-1 psql -U tandemu -d tandemu < "$f"
done

Verify

curl http://localhost:3001/api/health
# Expected: {"success":true,"data":{"status":"ok",...}}
 
open http://localhost:3000

Manage

docker compose down          # Stop
docker compose up -d         # Start
docker compose logs -f       # Logs
git pull && docker compose up --build -d  # Update

Tell Your Developers

Once the platform is running, share the URL with your team. They run:

curl -fsSL https://tandemu.dev/install.sh | bash
# Choose "Self-hosted" → enter your URL

No Docker needed on their machines.
