Decentralized compute network. CLI-first. Three modules out of the box: transcode (FFmpeg), coinpay (DID + escrow), infernet (AI inference).
curl -fsSL https://c0mpute.com/install.sh | shThat installs three CLIs into ~/.c0mpute/bin:
| Binary | Purpose | Source |
|---|---|---|
c0mpute |
Umbrella CLI: jobs, workers, modules, dispatch | this repo |
coinpay |
DID, wallet, escrow, payments, receipts, reputation | upstream coinpay project |
infernet |
AI inference workload runner | infernet-protocol (upstream) |
The c0mpute installer pulls each from its own release feed.

Rust | Static binary; no runtime to install on workers |
| P2P / chunks / FFmpeg | Rust | rust-libp2p, content-addressed storage, no GC pauses |

There is no central backend — no Supabase, no coordinator daemon. Discovery, dispatch, and verification flow through libp2p Kad-DHT + gossipsub. Identity, payments, escrow, and reputation flow through CoinPay DID. The only public infrastructure we host is static (landing site, release tarballs, bootstrap seed list, plugin manifest mirrors). See DIP-0011.
plugins/ directory is for marketplace metadata only. Each plugin's
module.toml describes how c0mpute discovers, dispatches to, and (in
the future) lets users install/enable/disable it. The plugin's actual
binary comes from its own release feed.

- Real CoinPay DID generation, escrow, receipts (DIP-0007 — depends on upstream coinpay project shipping)
- Real Infernet runtime integration (depends on upstream infernet-protocol)
- libp2p networking (
c0mpute-netis a trait surface today; bootstrap design in DIP-0010) - Plugin marketplace UI on the dashboard (
/pluginspage coming)
