## Description
Your private media library and records, with receipts: search, recordings, and a verifiable ledger.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "longwire": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","longwire"]
  }
}
```

## Documentation & README

# Longwire — downloads

Longwire is a whole-home media server from Future Maven: free over-the-air television recorded
from an HDHomeRun tuner, radio through an RTL-SDR dongle, your own films, music and photos on every
screen in the house, recordings published to every TV over DLNA, guests on their phones from a QR
code. It runs as a service on a Windows PC, a Linux box or a Raspberry Pi and is used from a browser.

This repository holds the releases only. Take the newest one from the
[Releases](https://github.com/longwiremedia/releases/releases/latest) page:

| You have | Take |
|---|---|
| Windows 10 or 11 | `Longwire-Setup-<version>.exe` — the installer (service, firewall rule, Start menu). `Longwire-Portable.zip` runs from a folder without installing. |
| Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, Zorin, Raspberry Pi OS | `longwire_<version>_amd64.deb`, or `_arm64.deb` on a Raspberry Pi or ARM box: `sudo apt install ./longwire_<version>_amd64.deb` |
| Any other Linux with systemd | `curl -fsSL https://github.com/longwiremedia/releases/releases/latest/download/install.sh \| sudo bash`, or the `Longwire-linux-*.tar.xz` by hand |
| Docker | `docker run -d --name longwire -p 8420:8420 -v longwire-data:/data ghcr.io/trorie/longwire` |

Then open `http://<that machine>:8420` from any device on your network. The user guide is inside the
app at `/help`.

The app checks this page once a day and shows a badge when a newer version is here; nothing
downloads or installs by itself.
