Platforms
Kaleidoscope targets macOS on Apple Silicon and Intel, Linux on x86_64 and arm64, and Windows on x86_64 and arm64.
None of them are available yet. There is nothing to download, on any platform, and neither package is published. When there is something to install, that list is what it will cover. What is available today.

Windows creates no vault
Section titled “Windows creates no vault”On Windows, creating a new vault is refused on purpose. Windows needs its own filesystem work first — file locking, link handling, and flushing writes all the way to the disk — and until that lands Kaleidoscope stops rather than writing memory it cannot stand behind.
This is a deliberate refusal in the code, not a gap, and it is the one platform fact worth knowing before you plan around it. The rest of the Windows work is outstanding too, so do not read the refusal as the only thing between you and a working install there.
What has actually been run
Section titled “What has actually been run”One kind of machine: a Mac with Apple Silicon. The rest of the list is what Kaleidoscope is built for, not what it has been run on. The full account is on the status page.
