manually (for example with `apt install tor obfs4proxy`) and set the
environment variables `TOR_SOCKS_PORT` and `TOR_CONTROL_PORT` before launching. **Option 1: install via your package manager**
You may also run `scripts/download_tor.sh` to fetch prebuilt binaries and ```bash
replace the placeholders. sudo apt update && sudo apt install tor obfs4proxy
# or on macOS
brew install tor obfs4proxy
```
Ensure the Tor daemon is running (`sudo service tor start` on Linux).
**Option 2: use the helper script**
```bash
scripts/download_tor.sh
```
The script downloads the official Tor expert bundle for your OS and places the
executables under `voxvera/resources/tor/<platform>`.
After installing either way, set the ports used by Tor:
```bash
export TOR_SOCKS_PORT=9050
export TOR_CONTROL_PORT=9051
```
Run `voxvera check` to confirm the binaries are detected before launching.
