Closed Beta Guide
The internal closed beta covers the full product loop, from account registration to industrial control. Participation is by invitation only.
What the beta covers
- 1Register an account and create an API key in the [Arona](https://github.com/celestia-island/arona) cloud API admin panel. The panel is internal-only during the beta (`arona:8420` on the deployment host).
- 2Deploy a model and bind it to a chat backend through the panel.
- 3Chat and run agents from the [shittim-chest](https://github.com/celestia-island/shittim-chest) desktop app; agent orchestration is provided by entelecheia's **scepter** runtime.
- 4Industrial control: remote operations and protocol brokering run through [evernight](https://github.com/celestia-island/evernight).
Getting access
- Access is invite-based. Public self-registration is closed by default.
- Invitations are issued by the maintainers and bound to a single account.
- For access questions, reach out through the channels listed in [Contributing](../meta/CONTRIBUTING.md).

Known limitations
- The Arona panel is internal-only and not exposed publicly during the beta.
- Registration is closed by default; open registration is not yet available.
- WebRTC device relay and live SCADA telemetry require a running scepter instance; without it the UI falls back to simulated demo data.
- Mobile apps and IDE plugins are not part of this beta.
- Some documentation languages are partial translations.
