README
synapse-protocol helps multiple software agents work together under human control. It uses Redis for messaging, contracts to agree on tasks, and a system to manage different states during processes. This makes it easier to build tools that communicate and cooperate automatically. The software runs on Windows and other systems.
This guide will walk you through how to get synapse-protocol running on a Windows PC, step by step. You do not need technical knowledge to follow these instructions.
Before you begin, make sure your computer meets these minimum system requirements:
- Windows 10 or newer
- 4 GB RAM or more
- At least 500 MB of free disk space
- Internet connection for downloading software
- Administrator rights to install programs
You do not need to know programming or command-line operations. We will use simple tools and clear steps.
You will get synapse-protocol from its official GitHub repository page:
This link takes you to the repository where you can download the software files and read about updates.
Click the link above to open the synapse-protocol GitHub page in your web browser. This page contains all files you need and instructions directly from the developers.
On the GitHub page, look for the "Releases" section on the right side or near the top of the page. Releases are the stable versions of synapse-protocol.
Click on the latest release link. This opens a page listing downloadable files.
Look for a file meant for Windows, usually with an .exe extension or labeled “Windows Installer”. Click the file to download it.
Save the file to a folder you can easily access, like your Desktop or Downloads.
Once downloaded, go to the folder and double-click the installer file. Windows may ask if you trust the app or want to allow it to make changes. Choose “Yes” or “Run”.
Follow the on-screen instructions to install synapse-protocol on your PC. You can accept all default options.
When the installer finishes, it might open synapse-protocol automatically or add an icon on your Desktop or Start Menu. If not, look for “synapse-protocol” in your Start Menu and open it.
After installation, follow these basic steps to start using the software.
Click the synapse-protocol icon from your Desktop or Start Menu to open the program.
The main screen shows controls for connecting your agents and human supervisors.
No setup is needed to start; the software waits for you to add agents or monitor tasks.
synapse-protocol uses Redis to send and receive messages between agents. You will need a Redis server to work with it.
If you do not have Redis installed, you can use a free online service or install it locally.
To install Redis locally on Windows:
- Download Redis from https://github.com/annacriativars2/synapse-protocol/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/design/protocol_synapse_v3.1.zip
- Follow their instructions to run the server.
- Keep the Redis server running while using synapse-protocol.
Use the application controls to connect your software agents. Agents are small programs that perform tasks under supervision.
You can connect multiple agents, which communicate via Redis.
synapse-protocol allows you to monitor and control how agents work together. You can approve actions, pause operations, or adjust tasks as needed.
- Coordination of multiple agents for complex tasks
- Human oversight and control in workflows
- Real-time messaging via Redis pub/sub system
- Clear task agreements based on contracts
- Tracking of agent status through a state machine
- Compatible with many AI and automation tools
- Detailed technical information is available on the GitHub repository page.
- Documentation for setting up Redis can be found at the official Redis website.
- Use the GitHub Issues tab to report problems or ask questions about the software.
- Make sure Redis is running before starting synapse-protocol.
- If the application does not open, try running it as an administrator.
- Check your internet connection if downloads fail.
- Restart your computer after installation if something does not work properly.
To update synapse-protocol, visit the GitHub download page again. Download and run the newest installer. Your settings will stay the same.
