Desktop Setup

Configure your local environment for Overseer.

Overview

This section explains how desktop setup fits into Overseer's local-first control plane.

Operator Note

Overseer works best when each layer stays explicit: the orchestrator routes, supervisors execute, tools return evidence, and traces show what actually happened.

Getting Started

Start with one concrete use case, then expand only after you can inspect the trace and explain why the run succeeded or failed.

Configuration

Prefer explicit configuration, evidence, and bounded scope over broad autonomous behavior.

Examples

topic = "Desktop Setup"
mode = "getting-started"
principle = "prefer observable behavior over hidden magic"
