#### System requirements
## System requirements
OpenHuman runs on **macOS, Windows and Linux** desktops. 8 GB+ RAM is recommended; 16 GB+ if you intend to ingest very large mailboxes or repos, or run a [local model](../features/model-routing/local-ai.md) on the same machine.

#### Permissions
### Permissions
The first time you launch OpenHuman, the OS will prompt for the permissions the app needs (Accessibility on macOS, Input Monitoring for the voice hotkey, Camera/Microphone if you plan to use the [Meeting Agent](../features/mascot/meeting-agents.md)). You can review and adjust these any time under **Settings → Automation & Channels**.

## 3. Onboarding flow
After sign-in, OpenHuman runs you through a short routed onboarding under `/onboarding/*`. The flow is intentionally tiny: five short steps and you're in.
### Step 1 - Welcome ("Hi. I'm OpenHuman.")
The mascot introduces itself. This is the same character that lives on your desktop and can [join your meetings](../features/mascot/meeting-agents.md) once you're set up.
### Step 2 - Connect your Gmail
OpenHuman asks you to connect **Gmail** as the first source. Gmail is high-signal, has a native ingest path into the [Memory Tree](../features/obsidian-wiki/memory-tree.md), and is enough on its own to give the agent a real picture of you to work with.
You connect via OAuth. Nothing is read until the next [auto-fetch](../features/obsidian-wiki/auto-fetch.md) tick.
You can connect more sources later - the full [118+ catalog](../features/integrations/README.md) is available from **Settings**.
### Step 3 - Building your profile ("Almost there!")
OpenHuman runs a short context-gathering pass on what you just connected and builds an initial profile of you (recurring people, ongoing projects, timezone, working hours). This is the same memory pipeline that runs on every auto-fetch tick afterwards - it's just doing the first pass with the lights on.
### Step 4 - Choose how AI runs
Pick **Cloud Mode** (managed model routing - the fast default) or **Local AI** (run models on your own machine for full offline + privacy). You can switch any time later from **Settings → AI & Skills**. See [Local AI (optional)](../features/model-routing/local-ai.md) and [Automatic Model Routing](../features/model-routing/README.md) for what's behind each option.
### Step 5 - Referral code (optional)
If someone gave you a referral code, paste it here. Otherwise skip.
When the flow finishes, OpenHuman flips your `onboarding_completed` flag and lands you on **/home**.

## 4. Open the Obsidian vault
The Memory tab has a **View vault in Obsidian** button. Click it to open `<workspace>/wiki/` in [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md). You can browse the agent's summaries, drop in your own notes, and even build manual links - the agent will pick up your edits on the next ingest. See [Obsidian-Style Memory](../features/obsidian-wiki/).

## 5. Let the mascot do more
Now that the agent has memory and a model, the rest of the product is about giving it more surfaces:
* **[Meeting Agents](../features/mascot/meeting-agents.md)** - drop a Google Meet link in and the mascot joins as a real participant: it listens, takes notes into the Memory Tree, speaks back into the call, and uses tools live.
* **[Auto-fetch from Integrations](../features/obsidian-wiki/auto-fetch.md)** - connect more sources from **Settings**; every twenty minutes the scheduler pulls fresh data into your tree.
* **[Native Voice](../features/native-tools/voice.md)** - push-to-talk dictation and TTS replies so you can talk to OpenHuman instead of typing.
* **[Subconscious Loop](../features/subconscious.md)** - let the mascot keep working on standing tasks while you're away.
