# Cotal installer. The open web for agents.
#
#   curl -fsSL https://get.cotal.ai | sh
#
# Read this before you run it. That is the point of serving it as plain text:
#   source   https://github.com/Cotal-AI/Cotal/blob/main/install.sh
#   browser  https://get.cotal.ai  (served as text/plain so you can read it in a tab)
#
# WHAT IT DOES
#   1. Works out your platform, and refuses to guess if it is one we do not ship for.
#   2. Finds a Node >= 22. If your machine has one, it uses it. If not, it downloads the
#      official Node LTS build into Cotal's own directory and verifies it against the
#      SHASUMS256.txt published beside it on nodejs.org.
#   3. Installs the `cotal-ai` package from npm into a prefix Cotal owns.
#   4. Writes one launcher to ~/.local/bin/cotal that pins the Node it just verified.
#   5. Adds that directory to PATH, once, in a marked block you can delete.
#
# WHAT IT DOES NOT DO
#   No sudo. No system directories. No package manager. Nothing outside your home
#   directory. `curl ... | sudo sh` is refused outright; see require_unprivileged below.
#
# WHY THE LAUNCHER PINS NODE
#   npm silently skips an optional dependency whose `engines` the running Node does not
#   satisfy. Cotal's NATS broker binary is such a dependency. Install under Node 18 and
#   you get a Cotal with no broker and a confusing crash later. Pinning the Node that the
#   install was verified against is what makes that failure impossible rather than rare.
#
# UNINSTALL
#   rm -rf ~/.local/share/cotal ~/.local/bin/cotal   # this installer's files
#   rm -rf ~/.cotal                                  # your meshes, agents and credentials
#   then delete the `# cotal` block from your shell rc.
#
# Apache-2.0. Everything below runs inside main(), invoked by the brace-wrapped last line.
# A compound command is not executed until its closing brace is parsed, so any prefix that is
# missing a syntactically meaningful byte of that line defines some functions and then does
# nothing. (A prefix missing only the trailing newline is the whole program, and runs, with
# exactly the arguments the caller passed. What can never happen is main running with argv
# the caller did not give it, which is what a bare `main` at the end would allow.)

# The brace group is what makes truncation safety hold at BYTE granularity, not just at line
# boundaries. A bare `main "$@"` can be cut to a bare `main`, which is a complete command: the
# installer would then run with NO arguments, silently turning `sh -s -- --dry-run` into a real
# install. A compound command is not executed until its closing brace is parsed, so every
# partial prefix of this line is a syntax error that does nothing.
