Install a Mobazha Node

Supported source-build path

The current public release candidate requires Go 1.26.4, Git, and a supported macOS or Linux development environment. Build with the pure-Go crypto implementation, then start on testnet while evaluating payment flows.

git clone https://github.com/mobazha/mobazha.git
cd mobazha
go build -tags goolm -o mobazha .
./mobazha init --testnet
./mobazha start --testnet --open

What starts

• The first start initializes the default data directory when needed.
• The embedded Web UI and HTTP API listen on http://127.0.0.1:5102 by default.
• Versioned HTTP routes live under /v1/, WebSocket under /ws, and MCP Streamable HTTP under /v1/mcp.
• Local-only listening is the safe default; do not expose the API to the internet until authentication, TLS, firewall, and update plans are reviewed.

Optional background service

After validating an interactive start, install and inspect the supported background service.

./mobazha service install
./mobazha service status
./mobazha doctor --json

Pre-release packaging

Docker, standalone, and appliance packaging exists in the public repository, but it remains pre-release. Inspect the image tag, downloaded scripts, configuration, update behavior, and recovery path before using it outside a disposable environment.
