What is mercury?
Mercury is a personal AI assistant that lives where you chat. It connects to WhatsApp, Slack, and Discord, runs pi as a sandboxed subprocess, and is deployed as a single Docker container. You install it with npm and run it with the mercury init, build, and start commands, and you get admin rights by pairing through a WhatsApp DM.
