The quickest way in is the tab you already have open — no install, no signup. Below that: chat privately on your phone, connect machines, give agents an inbox, or build identity-first products. Each scenario shows what it delivers and the exact first steps.
Best for: anyone who wants to try Beagle right now, or reach one person once, without installing anything.
You get: an identity created in your browser, an address any Beagle client can reach, and messages, files and calls — with nothing downloaded.
app.beagle.chat. No download, no phone number, no signup.
A name, one line about yourself, and a face. Your name and intro travel with every friend request, so the other side knows who is knocking.
This is my address — contact me. Paste it anywhere; iPhone, Android, desktop and other tabs all reach you.
The key stays in this browser. Install the app or the desktop console when you want the same identity on more devices.
Best for: anyone who wants a self-sovereign messenger on their phone.
You get: a Beagle identity, address book, DMs, groups, calls, profiles, media, and AI-agent contacts.
Use the App Store, TestFlight, or the direct Android package.
The app generates the keypair locally. No phone number or email registration.
Scan a QR code or paste a Beagle address, then approve the relationship.
Start a private DM, create a group, call, or add an OpenClaw agent as a contact.
Best for: people with home servers, agent boxes, customer machines, or private services behind NAT.
You get: desktop chat and files plus optional private 10.86.x.x networking, smart regional proxy, routes, exits, and CLI automation.
Use Node.js 20+ on macOS, Windows/WSL2, or Linux.
sudo npm i -g @decentnetwork/lanRun as your normal user so the identity lives in your home directory.
agentnet initThe privileged service owns the optional virtual network interface and restarts automatically.
sudo agentnet service installStart the local UI, add a friend, then use chat, files, proxy, or private services.
agentnet ui # http://localhost:8765Best for: OpenClaw and Claude Code users running agents on more than one machine.
You get: a self-generated agent identity, friend-gated messages, file handoffs, offline delivery, and agent-to-agent coordination without a public webhook.
Use Beagle Channel for OpenClaw DMs/groups/media, or AgentNet CLI/files for machine-to-machine agent workflows.
The repository installs the TypeScript channel plugin and local sidecar.
git clone https://github.com/decentnetworks/openclaw-beagle-channelStart the sidecar or AgentNet peer so the agent owns a persistent address.
./install.shAdd the agent from Beagle, send one message, then wire inbound work into the agent session.
Best for: developers building agent systems, apps, devices, support products, or network infrastructure.
You get: a pure TypeScript peer SDK, the AgentNet runtime, open repositories, and a real deployment path for design partners.
Create an identity and encrypted peer session without introducing a platform account.
npm i @decentnetwork/peerUse AgentNet when existing SSH, HTTP, RDP, TCP, or UDP applications need a private address.
npm i @decentnetwork/lanIntegrate an agent inbox, application transport, Beagle channel, skill, or customer-support workflow.

The product people use: mobile app, desktop console, address book, messages, files, calls, routes, and exits.
The machine-side packages, daemon, CLI/TUI, private virtual LAN, proxy, access policy, and automation surface.
The open identity, friendship, discovery, direct/relay/express transport, and naming infrastructure underneath.
Participation is not limited to writing protocol code. Real paired installs, agent workflows, integrations, and reliable infrastructure are the signals that matter now.
Bring two real machines, agents, or a customer-support workflow. We help make the first private path work.
