Distribution Bundles

A Vox bundle is a tarball with the vox host binary plus a curated plugins/ directory. Every bundle ships the same host binary; what differs is which plugins are pre-installed.

Picking a bundle

If you want to…	Pick
Try Vox locally with the default agent skills	`vox-fullstack`
Train ML models locally on NVIDIA hardware	`vox-ml`
Run a headless backend server with mesh + cloud sync	`vox-server`
Run a node in a Populi mesh	`vox-mesh`
Use Vox as a managed cloud client (no local ML/mesh)	`vox-cloud-only`
Run on edge / on-device with skills only	`vox-edge`
Hack on Vox itself with everything available	`vox-dev`
Build your own custom bundle	`vox-base` + plugins

Building a bundle

vox bundle build vox-ml --target linux-x86_64 --out vox-ml-1.0.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz

Bundles are reproducible from the catalog: the same Vox version + same catalog SHA produces byte-identical tarballs.

Defining your own bundle

External users add a bundle entry in their own catalog overlay (mechanism deferred to a follow-up sub-project) or assemble plugins manually with vox plugin install <id> after starting from vox-base.

For the first-party bundle list, see the auto-generated distribution-bundles.generated.md.
