Installation

Install the Bitfy agent and connect your first host.

Installation

Install a Bitfy agent on each host you want to monitor. Agents are lightweight, watch scoped paths, and stream integrity events to your Bitfy workspace.

Requirements

  • Linux, Windows Server, or container host with outbound HTTPS
  • Ability to install a system service or daemon
  • Network access to your Bitfy control plane

Install the agent

  1. Sign in to Bitfy and open Hosts → Add host.
  2. Copy the install command for your operating system.
  3. Run the command with sufficient privileges to create a service.
  4. Confirm the host appears as Online in the dashboard.
curl -fsSL https://get.bitfy.dev/install.sh | sudo bash -s -- --token YOUR_TOKEN

Verify connectivity

After install, the agent registers the host and begins heartbeats. If the host stays offline:

  • Confirm outbound HTTPS is allowed
  • Check the agent service status
  • Re-run registration with a fresh token

Next steps

Move on to Quickstart to scope paths and approve a baseline.
