caurad — uvx / pip wrapper

Run the Caura broker from the Python ecosystem:

uvx caurad --help                        # run without installing
pipx install caurad && caurad --help     # or install the canonical entry point

How it works

This package is a thin dispatcher — the broker itself is a single Go binary.

On first canonical or compatibility entry-point invocation, wrappers/uvx/caurad/cli.py detects your platform, downloads the matching signed archive from the public release mirror, verifies its SHA-256 against the published checksums.txt, caches the binary under ~/.cache/memclawd/<version>/, and os.execvs it with your arguments — so uvx caurad <args> behaves like the native memclaw <args>. Subsequent invocations reuse the cached binary.

The install itself does NOT prefetch the binary — the download happens on first invocation. That keeps the package tiny and works under pipx / sandboxed installs where postinstall hooks don't fire.

The binary is downloaded from the public release mirror (https://memclaw.net/memclaw/<tag>/) — the same source the wrappers/curl/install.sh installer uses, not this repo's GitHub Releases (which are private). SHA-256 verification is the integrity gate.

Environment overrides

Both are also read under their historical MEMCLAW_* spellings, which keep working indefinitely; the CAURA_* name wins when it holds a non-empty value.

  • CAURA_BINARY_BASE — base URL of a release mirror (default https://memclaw.net/memclaw). Point it at an on-prem gateway's <origin>/memclaw to install from a private deployment.
  • CAURA_VERSION — pin a specific release tag instead of the installed package's version.

The published package version is set from the release tag by the PyPI-publish workflow; the 0.0.0 in pyproject.toml is a placeholder for local checkouts.

Compatibility name

Existing pip install memclawd and uvx --from memclawd memclaw commands keep working through the separate compatibility package, which depends on caurad. New installation instructions should use the canonical name above.
