reader: someone installing or running meow-flow on Pi answers: what meow-flow provides, what it adds to a session and how to install it kind: reference describes: [@meowshed/meow-flow@0.52.0]

@meowshed/meow-flow

Runs the method's seven steps from research to review, each refused by a native program until its input is approved, routes each request before work starts, drives the steps to the next approval gate with /meow-flow:run, and checks the record they write where .meowpaw/profile.toml declares it. It keeps up to 910 characters in context on every turn. Distributed as a Pi package.

Install it

pi install npm:@meowshed/meow-flow

The paw executable ships with @meowshed/meow-core alone (REQ-4612): this package's launchers run their subcommands through it, so install the core package beside this one for the binary-backed checks. Without it, every check reports unrun and lets the command through.

pi install npm:@meowshed/meow-core   # carries the binary the launchers run

Installing from this repository's checkout is the development install: it loads the package in place and runs no lifecycle script.

Commands

Each command sends its skill's instructions into the session, so the step runs: the seven step commands load the method skill, /meow-flow:run the driver skill, and /meow-flow:init and /meow-flow:onboard their own. Type the command and its arguments, and the model carries out what the skill says.

The researcher's nested call picks the model the MEOW_NESTED_MODEL environment variable names before any other, so you choose what the draft costs: it runs on glm 5.3 flash where the variable names nothing.
