Course 3 of 18

First Install & Hosting

The unglamorous but essential course: *where does the agent actually run?* The channel's coverage splits into three camps — hosted (MaxClaw, Mavis, KiloClaw), VPS / cloud (NemoClaw, Hermes VPS, Nut Studio), and local (Mac Mini, NVIDIA, Qwen on your laptop). This course is the decision framework + the install guides, and it is the operational backbone of every other course on the site.
