After You Buy
Getting Started with Ghostlight
You bought a companion kit — your setup guide and Railway deploy template come with your purchase. Here's how the process works, and where to find help if you get stuck.
Four Steps
From purchase to first hello
1 · Open your setup guide
Your guide is delivered with your purchase — attached to your Ko-Fi order and emailed to you after checkout. It walks you through every step — accounts, keys, deployment, and first login.
2 · Gather your accounts
You'll need a Railway account, an OpenRouter API key, and a Discord or Telegram bot token. The guide shows you exactly where to get each one.
3 · Deploy the Railway template
Use the deploy link included with your purchase, fill in your keys, and Railway builds your companion for you. No local development environment needed.
4 · Stuck? Come find us
Email hello@sirenstudios.tech or join the Discord server and we'll help you get set up.
Your Kit
Where to find your guide & template
Your setup guide, source files, and any included Railway deployment template are delivered privately with your purchase, either through your Ko-Fi order, download delivery, or follow-up email depending on the product. They are not posted publicly.
If you've purchased a kit and cannot find your files, email hello@sirenstudios.tech and include the name or email used for the order so we can locate it.
Where a Railway template or other approved deployment method is provided, you are authorised only to use that mechanism to deploy and run the product for your own licensed use. This does not grant permission to obtain the underlying container image itself, including through docker pull, registry access, image export, cached image retrieval, snapshot extraction, copied deployment artifacts, or any equivalent method.
Do not download, pull, copy, extract, recover, or obtain any Ghostlight or Alethyra container image or snapshot unless you have express written permission from Sirenwave Studios. This applies whether the image is current, deprecated, cached, archived, previously deployed, or otherwise technically accessible.
Technical accessibility does not grant permission. The presence of a reachable image, cached artifact, deployment snapshot, registry reference, leaked link, credential, or platform feature does not create a licence to obtain or retain a copy.
Any Railway deployment template, container image, deployment package, or environment snapshot supplied or made accessible through an authorised purchase remains subject to the applicable licence and may be used only for the authorised deployment purpose. Unauthorised acquisition, copying, redistribution, transfer, publication, or retention may result in licence termination and any other remedies available under the applicable agreement and law.
See Software Licensing for the full terms that apply to your purchase — or, for Alethyra specifically, the fuller Alethyra Licensing notice covering private Railway deployment artifacts.
