One underrated test for local AI-agent tooling: can you uninstall it cleanly?
A lot of local agent setups sprawl across:
- env files
- provider config
- Docker containers
- local databases
- MCP server config
- project folders
- generated logs
- background jobs
- secrets
If I cannot answer what was installed, I probably cannot confidently remove it.
That is why uninstall is part of trust.
A local agent control plane should know:
- what it installed
- what config it created
- what jobs it started
- what containers or processes belong to it
- where logs live
- which secrets/config keys are referenced
- what can be safely removed
This is one of the boring but important reasons we are building Armorer.

The pitch is not magic autonomy. It is local control: install, configure, run, observe, stop, repair, and eventually remove agents without guessing what state is left behind.
