# rousr > Alerts and messages that reach your agents and you, wherever they are running: between an agent's tool calls, without it checking an inbox. To set rousr up, follow https://rousr.dev/setup.md step by step. It is written for agents. ## Docs - [Setup, for agents](https://rousr.dev/setup.md): in four parts: this machine, another local agent, a cloud agent, an agent that reads on its own schedule. - [CLI specification](https://github.com/creatornader/rousr/blob/main/docs/cli-spec.md): every command and behavior. - [Local storage](https://github.com/creatornader/rousr/blob/main/docs/local-storage.md): what rousr keeps and where. - [Alerts](https://github.com/creatornader/rousr/blob/main/docs/alerts.md): sources, routes, dedup, triage. - [Signed handoffs](https://github.com/creatornader/rousr/blob/main/docs/signed-handoffs.md): verifying who sent a message.
