Murmurent

AI assistants for research groups, built on Claude Code. Each lab keeps control of its own people and data, and can share with other labs when that helps.

▶ Watch the 7-minute getting-started video

You need a Mac or Linux computer with Claude Code installed and signed in.

1. Install

Install uv, the tool that installs Murmurent:

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

Open a new terminal, then:

uv tool install murmurent
murmurent install
murmurent doctor

murmurent doctor checks the install. If something is wrong, it prints the command that fixes it.

You also get a Murmurent Dashboard icon: in Applications on a Mac, in the applications menu on Linux.

2. Say who you are

murmurent init

It asks for your name, your email and your role: member (you work in a lab), PI (you lead a lab or core facility) or mayor (you run a centre).

3. Set up a folder

Do this for every folder that holds research data. It turns on the check that removes patient identifiers from anything leaving your computer.

murmurent repo adopt ~/repos/<folder>

The folder must be a git repository inside your repositories folder (~/repos unless you chose another). If it does not work.

4. Start working

cd ~/repos/<folder>
claude

Ask Claude Code anything, including "how do I use Murmurent?".

Updating

uv tool upgrade murmurent
murmurent install

Next

Help

Ask Claude Code first. If that does not solve it, see installation special cases or report a problem.
