v0.16.0 release contains two current kit definitions. Choose the one that matches the single environment you already operate; Cloud Kit live-runtime evidence remains pending.
Start with one environment. StackKits does not provision servers or take custody of provider credentials, so select a kit only after you know which host and domain you control.
The first successful Basement path is the Quickstart. For a VPS you already operate, use Cloud Kit. The StackKits website can also help you choose.
Install only the toolchain
To install the CLI and the full public catalog without the Basement one-liner:cloud-kit or modern-homelab the same way.
The retired
base-kit name is rejected. Update scripts that still pass it to
use basement-kit.amd64 and arm64. Windows users can download the windows_amd64
ZIP from the latest release.
After a toolchain-only install, initialize the workspace on
Basement Kit or
Configure a StackSpec.
