Not every release needs a headline. This one is small on purpose.
One-line install
curl -sSL https://fadelab.net/install | bash
That’s it. The script handles the rest: Python check, pip install, config file, Claude Desktop integration. Should take under a minute on any modern machine.
Before this, getting Phantom running meant reading through a README, running a few commands in the right order, and hoping your environment cooperated. Fine for engineers who enjoy that sort of thing. Not great for everyone else. The installer removes that friction.
Telemetry (the transparent kind)
The install script sends three anonymous events: install started, install completed, or install failed. No machine info, no user info. Just enough to know which platforms are succeeding and which ones aren’t.
Phantom runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows (via WSL). We can’t test every environment. If installs are failing on a particular platform, we want to know. That’s the entire scope of what’s collected.
If you want to read the script before running it: curl -sSL https://fadelab.net/install. No flags, just print it.
Other bits
Updated README links to the docs and changed the contact address to hello@fadelab.net.
That’s v1.2.1. Small, but the install experience matters.
