Murmurent

PyPI Downloads Python License Docs Built on Claude Code Stars

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

📖 Read the documentation: getting started, joining a lab, projects, the agents, and every command.

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.
