Replace git.circuitforge.io/circuitforge/peregrine with the correct Forgejo URL (git.opensourcesolarpunk.com/Circuit-Forge/peregrine) in Quick Start, License, and Contributing clone instructions. Update feature matrix in docs/index.md to show BYOK‡ for AI features (cover letter, company research, interview prep, survey assistant) with a footnote explaining the free-with-own-backend model. Previously the table showed these as Paid-only, which would mislead self-hosters.

Peregrine
AI-powered job search pipeline — by Circuit Forge LLC
Peregrine automates the full job search lifecycle: discovery, matching, cover letter generation, application tracking, and interview preparation. It is privacy-first and local-first — your data never leaves your machine unless you configure an external integration.
Quick Start
# 1. Clone and install dependencies
git clone https://git.opensourcesolarpunk.com/Circuit-Forge/peregrine
cd peregrine
bash install.sh
# 2. Start Peregrine
make start # no GPU, API-only
make start PROFILE=single-gpu # one NVIDIA GPU
make start PROFILE=dual-gpu # dual GPU (Ollama + vLLM)
# 3. Open the UI
# http://localhost:8501
The first-run wizard guides you through hardware detection, tier selection, identity, resume, LLM configuration, search profiles, and integrations. See Installation for the full walkthrough.
