[LOCAL PREVIEW · SETUP SPECIFICATION]
Keep your work within reach.
This is an educational preview. Installation and setup happen in VS Code; viewing this page changes nothing on your computer.
Install the local VESSEL VSIX, then choose Set up VESSEL. The current preview supports Windows x64, Python 3.11–3.14, and the verified Cline 4.1.17 bundle.
Install VESSEL
Install the local preview VSIX in VS Code. Installation alone does not configure your project.
Check requirements
VESSEL checks Python 3.11 or newer and the exact supported Cline build before making changes.
Choose a project
Choose one open folder. Review its mission and the private recovery storage outside your repository.
Connect Orbio
Approve small verification requests and save your key in VS Code SecretStorage. Project content is not part of this check.
Choose two models
Choose verified primary and fallback routes. Native Cline compatibility remains a separate check.
Configure locally
Review hooks, MCP settings, local ports and any compatibility change before applying them.
Verify protection
Check the companion and gateway, bind an observed Cline task, then verify real capture and a checkpoint. Pending checks stay pending.
Recover when needed
Stop the source, review a handover for a fresh task, retrieve its context, and confirm observed continuation.
The complete guide is shown above. Configuration executes locally within your IDE environment.
