Requirements

import { Callout, Card, CardGrid } from ‘@astrojs/starlight/components’;

Supported platforms

Pre-built binaries for Apple Silicon (arm64) and Intel (amd64). Pre-built binaries for amd64 and arm64. Statically linked — runs on any modern distro. Install with `install.ps1`; node self-update is not supported on Windows yet. The default time-series backend is **SQLite** — pure Go, no extra services to run.

Run requirements

• A host for the server that can listen on two ports (gRPC :8443, HTTP :8444 by default).
• One or more hosts for probe nodes. Nodes are outbound-only — they need network egress to the server and no inbound ports, so they work behind NAT and firewalls.
• For privileged probe features: traceroute and BGP (TCP/179) need CAP_NET_RAW/root. Unprivileged ping works as a normal user on Linux/macOS with the standard ICMP datagram sysctls.
• For the browser probe: a Chromium binary is fetched on first use (or point at one with FOUREYES_BROWSER_BINARY).

The default time-series backend is **SQLite** — no external database or container required. You can run the entire platform from the pre-built binaries alone.
