Shared first-run checklist

  1. Install DigUp — Mac 0.6.1 or Win/Linux 0.7.0-beta.1 from downloads.
  2. Complete the EmbeddingGemma 2 download (~865 MB) or Settings → Storage → Use Files… if blocked.
  3. Pick folders; DigUp skips cloud-only placeholders.
  4. Search by meaning; use code: when code search is enabled.
  5. Read FAQ, 0 files indexed, and battery & hours when stuck.
