Operating System Requirements
Installer Formats by Platform
| Platform | Available Formats | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| macOS | .dmg (separate arm64 / x64 builds) | Pick by chip type |
| Windows | .exe (NSIS), .msi (WiX) | Identical functionality; MSI suits enterprise deployment |
| Linux | .deb, .rpm, .AppImage | Identical functionality; AppImage has the widest compatibility |
Installers follow the naming pattern Mantra_{version}_{platform}-{arch}.{ext}. See the Installation Guide for step-by-step instructions.
macOS
| Requirement | Specification |
|---|---|
| Minimum version | macOS 12.0 (Monterey) |
| Recommended version | macOS 13.0+ (Ventura or higher) |
| Architecture support | Native support for Intel and Apple Silicon |
| Disk space | At least 500MB free space |
| Memory requirement | Minimum 4GB, recommended 8GB+ |
Apple Silicon Optimization
Mantra is optimized for Apple Silicon chips. M1/M2/M3 series chip users will get the best performance experience. Download the build whose filename contains macos-arm64 — using the Intel build (macos-x64) by mistake makes the app run through Rosetta 2 translation with noticeably worse performance.
Windows
| Requirement | Specification |
|---|---|
| Minimum version | Windows 10 (version 1903+) |
| Recommended version | Windows 11 |
| Architecture support | x64 (64-bit) |
| Disk space | At least 500MB free space |
| Memory requirement | Minimum 4GB, recommended 8GB+ |
Windows 7/8 Not Supported
Due to technical limitations, Mantra does not support Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1. Please upgrade to Windows 10 or higher.
Linux
| Requirement | Specification |
|---|---|
| Distribution support | Ubuntu 22.04+, Fedora 36+, Debian 12+ |
| Architecture support | x64 (64-bit) |
| Disk space | At least 500MB free space |
| Memory requirement | Minimum 4GB, recommended 8GB+ |
Supported distributions:
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, 24.04 LTS
- Fedora 36 and later
- Debian 12 (Bookworm) and later
- Linux Mint 21+
- Arch Linux (via AppImage)
Ubuntu 20.04 / Debian 11 Cannot Use DEB/RPM
Mantra is built against WebKit2GTK 4.1 (official build environment: Ubuntu 22.04). Ubuntu 20.04 and Debian 11 only ship WebKit2GTK 4.0, so the DEB/RPM packages won't run there. Use the AppImage on those systems — it bundles the required runtime.
Dependency requirements:
DEB/RPM installs resolve dependencies automatically, so you normally don't need to install anything by hand. To verify manually:
# Debian 12+ / Ubuntu 22.04+
sudo apt install libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0 libgtk-3-0 libayatana-appindicator3-1
# Fedora 36+
sudo dnf install webkit2gtk4.1 gtk3 libappindicator-gtk3The AppImage bundles the dependencies above and only needs FUSE from the system:
# Debian/Ubuntu
sudo apt install fuse libfuse2
# Fedora
sudo dnf install fuse fuse-libsSystem Resource Recommendations
Based on your usage scenario, here are recommended system configurations:
| Usage Scenario | Memory | Disk Space | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Light use | 4GB | 500MB | Few projects, occasional use |
| Daily use | 8GB | 1GB | Multiple projects, frequent use |
| Heavy use | 16GB+ | 2GB+ | Many projects, large conversations |
Performance Tips
- Using an SSD significantly improves project loading speed
- Closing unused projects reduces memory usage
- Clearing cache periodically frees disk space
Known Limitations
Claude Code Limitations
- Very early versions (beta test versions) log formats may be incompatible
- Some custom-configured log paths need to be specified manually
- Encrypted log files cannot be imported
Gemini CLI Limitations
- Versions before 1.0.0 have incompatible log formats
- Some tool call information may be incomplete
- Offline mode conversations may lack timestamps
Cursor Limitations
- Versions before 0.35.0 have incompatible log formats
- Composer mode conversations require version 0.40.0+
- Some plugin-generated conversations may not parse correctly
General Limitations
| Limitation | Description | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| Messages per project | Performance may be affected over 5000 | View by time period |
| Single message size | Loading may be slow over 1MB | Normal use won't encounter this |
| Concurrent projects | Recommend no more than 10 open simultaneously | Close unused projects |
| Git repository size | Very large repos (>5GB) matching may be slow | Wait patiently or use shallow clone |
Coming Soon
We're actively developing the following features and support:
