 3. Assign necessary system resources (Skills, Node access mappings, restricted Models) to this group so its members can utilize them.

+To give the AI hands-on execution power, you must register and deploy a new "Node". Nodes now run as dependency-free compiled Python binaries.
 1. Navigate to the **Swarm Nodes** page in the UI.
 2. Click **Register Node** to generate a unique Node Slug and an Invite Auth Token.
-3. In your terminal (on the machine you want to use as a node), run the node deployment script:
+3. In your terminal (on the machine you want to use as a node), copy and paste the one-liner command provided in the UI! For example:
    ```bash
-   bash add_node.sh
-   # It will prompt you for the Node ID and Auth Token you just generated!
+   curl -sSL 'http://localhost:8000/api/v1/nodes/provision/sh/YOUR_NODE_ID?token=YOUR_TOKEN' | bash
    ```
 4. Watch the node's pulsing indicator turn green on your Swarm dashboard!
-*(Note: We have extensively tested agent nodes on **macOS and Linux**. Windows deployment is not supported yet.)*
+*(Note: Agent nodes compile locally to **Linux AMD64, Linux ARM64, and macOS**. If using macOS, download the source bundle or build the darwin binary locally if native execution is required.)*
 
 ### 4. Start Using Swarm Control
 With your LLM configured and your local node connected, you can now enter **Swarm Control** or start a Chat session! You can attach specific nodes to your chat, granting the AI agent secure hands-on access to the file systems and terminals of those environments to complete workflows autonomously.
