TESTNET

Nightly artifacts can change without notice and may require a chain reset. Keep validator keys and chain data separate from the OS disk.

Recommended installation

Install a ROKO node.

The public guided installer walks through role and runtime choices, detects x86_64 or ARM64, installs and verifies the clock stack, downloads the correct build, bootstraps the chain specification, creates a hardened non-authoring service, and waits for full sync. No private source-repository access is required.

guided setup


            $ git clone https://github.com/Roko-Network/roko-edge-tools.git

            $ cd roko-edge-tools

            $ ./bin/roko-guided-install --time-stack chrony

The Chrony command above is the bootstrap/testing/edge path. Validator candidates targeting eligibility for the maximum payout tier should use the endorsed Timebeat partner profile below and join the Timebeat PTP² Mesh.

The launcher collects all choices before changing the host. It offers native and Docker runtimes and full, archive, observer, and validator-candidate roles. Validator candidates remain non-authoring until the separate reviewed enrollment process.

Using an AI coding or operations agent? Copy the bounded agent handoff. It requires manifest and script inspection, a visible dry run, explicit operator approval, and the full readiness gate.

ROKO official timing partner

Endorsed validator precision-time profile

ROKO and Timebeat: the official partner timing path.

Timebeat is ROKO Network's endorsed timing partner. Eligibility for the maximum validator payout tier requires a licensed Timebeat deployment and participation in the Timebeat PTP² Mesh, subject to measured performance and current program rules. Obtain the official agent package, one per-node licence, and configuration guidance directly from Timebeat; the ROKO installer handles the reviewed host-side sequence.

TimeBeat and its logo are marks of TimeBeat Ltd. Timebeat software, configuration, and licences are supplied by Timebeat and the operator, not redistributed by ROKO. External links open the official timebeat.app service. Timebeat is endorsed by ROKO Network as its official timing partner.

Advanced installation

Need the files directly?

Most operators should use the installer above. Open the manual downloads only for offline systems, image mirroring, or managed deployment tooling. The lower-level verified setup scripts remain available for operators who need to assemble their own workflow.

Operator access + support

Want to run a node?

Submit the operator intake, or join the official ROKO Telegram or Discord and speak with the team. These channels provide onboarding and nightly artifact guidance; public access does not require source-repository membership. The public ROKO edge tools repository contains the public guided installer and optional diagnostics rather than node source. The guided installer prepares full, archive, observer, or non-authoring validator-candidate nodes. It does not generate validator/session/PTP² keys as a bundle, enroll a validator, or enable authoring; an observer key is inserted only through its separate interactive step. Approved candidates should complete the validator preparation and PTP² observer procedures separately.
