// Getting Started

Downloads

Every Erebine binary ships through GitHub Releases on Erebine/binaries. The links on this page always resolve to the latest stable release: the erectl client and the EIM and EEM agents, as direct downloads and Debian and RPM packages.

source: github.com/Erebine/binaries
channel: releases/latest (stable)
platforms: Linux (x86_64, aarch64)
license: MIT (Erebine components). Bundled third-party components are under their own licenses — see THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES, attached to every release of the binaries after v1.13.0.

What Ships

Static binaries are named <binary>-<OS>-<ARCH>, matching uname -s and uname -m on the target host, so a Linux host can always fetch its own build. Both x86_64 and aarch64 are published:

bash

                    curl -fLO "https://github.com/Erebine/binaries/releases/latest/download/erectl-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)"
                

Binary	What it is	Linux
`erectl`	Command-line client for the API and platform management	x86_64, aarch64
`erebine-eim-agent`	EIM inference agent	x86_64, aarch64
`erebine-eem-agent`	EEM execution agent	x86_64, aarch64

macOS

Releases do not currently include macOS builds; every published artifact targets Linux, on x86_64 and aarch64.

Linux

The .deb and .rpm packages are built for x86_64. On aarch64, use the static binaries.

Debian / Ubuntu (.deb)

Packages declare their library dependencies and install systemd units for the agents. Download from Erebine/deb releases:

bash

                    sudo apt install -y ./erectl_*_amd64.deb
sudo apt install -y ./erebine-eim-agent_*_amd64.deb ./erebine-eem-agent_*_amd64.deb
                

RHEL / Rocky / Fedora (.rpm)

The agent packages depend on zeromq and libsodium, which ship in EPEL on RHEL and friends. Download from Erebine/rpm releases:

bash

                    sudo dnf install -y epel-release
sudo dnf install -y ./erectl-*.x86_64.rpm
sudo dnf install -y ./erebine-eim-agent-*.x86_64.rpm ./erebine-eem-agent-*.x86_64.rpm
                

For both package families the agents install disabled: set the join key in /etc/erebine/eim-agent.env or /etc/erebine/eem-agent.env, then systemctl enable --now erebine-eim-agent (or erebine-eem-agent).

Static binaries

bash

                    curl -fLO "https://github.com/Erebine/binaries/releases/latest/download/erectl-Linux-$(uname -m)"
chmod +x "erectl-Linux-$(uname -m)"
sudo install "erectl-Linux-$(uname -m)" /usr/local/bin/erectl
                

uname -m reports x86_64 or aarch64; the same pattern works for erebine-eim-agent-Linux-<ARCH> and erebine-eem-agent-Linux-<ARCH>. Both architectures are built against glibc 2.34, so they run on RHEL 9, Debian 12, Ubuntu 22.04, Amazon Linux 2023, and anything newer. The binaries are statically linked against the Swift runtime; the agents additionally need libzmq, libsodium, and libzstd from your distribution.

Containers

Prefer containers for GPU inference hosts. Images and compose files live in Erebine/container-agents and are documented on the EIM Deployment page.
