Try Arcanum, share what works, and help improve what comes next. The Forge follows when ready.

What accepted participants receive

Anyone can browse the public source in the Arcanum GitHub repository. Accepted beta participants receive additional access and support:

  • Receive collaborator permissions to the Arcanum repository.
  • Become eligible for part ownership in Retro Downfall; eligibility does not guarantee an ownership grant.
  • Installable Arcanum builds with instructions to help you set up.
  • Release notes and a clear way to share feedback and report problems.
  • The Forge source code and builds when its private beta begins.

Initial platform

The initial published build is for Macs with Apple Silicon. Builds for other operating systems may follow validation, but they are not promised.

How you can help

Help us understand the experience from installation to a useful result:

  • Install the published build and follow the setup instructions.
  • Connect the model provider you want to use.
  • Use Campaigns to organize a project, Sessions for conversations, and Spells for repeatable workflows.
  • Report problems with the steps to reproduce them and your hardware and software details.
