Connect your Node

Use a mere.run Node to run supported AI models on a Mac or Linux machine. AgentsMarkdown sends authorized media jobs through the relay; the Node runs them with local mere.run models and returns the result to your document.

The relay coordinates the request. It does not run the model.

What you need

• A mere.world account.
• A supported Mac or Linux machine.
• mere.run installed on that machine.
• The mere.run Node desktop app.
• At least one model for the capability you want to use.

Use the same mere.world account for AgentsMarkdown and the Node.

Install mere.run

For installation and model instructions, see the mere.run website.

Confirm that the CLI is available:

mere.run --version
mere.run model list

Install the Node app

Choose the package for the machine:

• macOS Apple Silicon
• Ubuntu or Debian x86_64
• Ubuntu or Debian arm64
• Linux x86_64 AppImage
• Linux arm64 AppImage

On Ubuntu or Debian, install the Debian package. On other supported Linux distributions, use the AppImage.

Sign in and start

1. Open mere.run Node.
2. Select Sign in with mere.world.
3. Approve the device code in the browser.
4. Give the Node a recognizable device name.
5. Select Start Node.

The status changes to online when the Node has authenticated and connected to the relay.

Discover capabilities

After installing models, in Models, select Scan. In Capabilities, check which runtime packs are available.

AgentsMarkdown only shows a media control when the connected fleet advertises the matching capability. For example, Transcribe appears when a Node reports batch or streaming automatic speech recognition (ASR).

Confirm from AgentsMarkdown

To use media tools, follow these steps:

1. Sign in to AgentsMarkdown.
2. Open a document with edit access.
3. Click Insert to display the media controls.

The available controls depend on the Node capabilities:

• AI image
• Transcribe
• OCR
• Listen

If the Node is installed but stopped, AgentsMarkdown offers a link to start it.

Use more than one machine

You can approve multiple Nodes under the same mere.world account. They form a personal pool. The relay places work on an eligible online Node that has the required capability and model.

Open relay.mere.run to inspect the fleet, priorities, installed models, activity, and availability.

Node permissions

Node media tools require a signed-in mere.world session. A document share key alone cannot submit work to your Node.

For authorization and media access rules, see Security model.
