Try Ekso locally

Paste this into your AI. Watch Ekso come up on your machine.

Works in Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or ChatGPT (with terminal access). Your agent downloads the Ekso bundle, runs docker compose up -d, and opens the workspace in your browser. About two minutes end-to-end on first run while Docker pulls the images.

Spin up Ekso (open-source self-hosted ops platform — tasks, tickets,
time, money, MCP server) on this machine so I can try it.

1. Download https://ekso.app/download/ekso-docker-stack.zip and unzip
   into a new folder
2. cd into the folder and run: docker compose up -d
3. Wait until http://localhost:6050 responds (1–2 min on first run
   while images pull from Docker Hub), then open it in my default browser
4. STOP — do not fill in the /startup form yourself. Tell me to pick
   my own admin username and password
5. After I submit, sample data auto-seeds and the workspace populates

To stop later: docker compose down

Each download mints a unique JWT key and encryption key in the bundled ekso.json — your install is cryptographically yours.
