Installation & updates

Jeden is distributed as a signed private-preview release. Treat the binary, its trust roots, and its release evidence as one unit.

Requirements

• A supported signed artifact supplied through the Wisent preview channel.
• Access to the model and entitlement endpoints selected by your operator.
• A writable home directory for configuration, sessions, memory, plugins, and update state.

Verify an installation

$ jeden --version
$ jeden doctor --json --cwd .
$ jeden conformance --json --cwd .

Do not infer health from a successful process launch. Diagnostics confirm storage, policy, providers, capability registration, and workspace-specific dependencies.

Update and rebuild

/update enters the signed update flow. /rebuild rebuilds the local checkout and resumes the active session. Stable promotion remains operator-controlled; canary identities include the CI run, attempt, and tested commit.
