Uninstall Godspeed Mission Control

Your mission control folder is your data, and only the steps that say so delete it. First copy a backup off the machine.

1. In the Start menu, open Godspeed Mission Control and click Uninstall Godspeed Mission Control.
2. Windows asks "Remove Godspeed Mission Control?". Click Yes.

The notebook's program, Hermes, the commands it added, its daily job, its Startup entry and its Start menu entries are gone. Your mission control folder, your notebook's notes, photos and files, and your conversations with your assistant stay. To delete them too, remove what stays.

1. Open a terminal and run:

   TerminalCopyCopied

   mc-uninstall

   If it says command not found, run this instead:

   TerminalCopyCopied

   curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichaelZelbel/godspeed-mission-control/beta/tools/mc-uninstall | sh

2. It asks "Remove the programs? (y/n) [n]". Type y and press Enter. On Linux, type your password if it asks.

3. It lists what it removed and ends with "Godspeed Mission Control's programs are removed from this computer." If it then names commands that need the administrator's rights, run them, or ask whoever runs the computer.

The notebook's background service, the commands it added, its scheduled jobs and this computer's settings in ~/.godspeed are gone. On a server without Docker, so is its web address, and with it the addresses of add-ons that used it. Their files in /etc/caddy/godspeed-addons/ stay until you remove the add-ons. Your mission control folder and your notebook's notes, photos and files stay. To delete them too, remove what stays, then delete ~/godspeed-v2.

On the one-line server, copy your backups off first. Then, as root:

cd /opt/godspeed-mission-control && docker compose down

This keeps your data, and the install line brings it back. To delete everything for good:

docker compose down -v && cd / && rm -rf /opt/godspeed-mission-control && docker image rm $(docker image ls -q ghcr.io/michaelzelbel/godspeed-mission-control)

Remove its add-on model command too, if this installer created it:

if grep -qx '# Godspeed Docker model command' /usr/local/bin/godspeed-model 2>/dev/null &&
   grep -qx 'install=/opt/godspeed-mission-control' /usr/local/bin/godspeed-model; then
  rm /usr/local/bin/godspeed-model
fi

To stop paying, cancel the server with your hosting company.

1. Delete %LOCALAPPDATA%\Godspeed Mission Control State and %LOCALAPPDATA%\Godspeed. If you installed before 2.0.0-beta.11, the first one is called %LOCALAPPDATA%\Godspeed Mission Control Full Alpha State, also after updating.
2. Delete %USERPROFILE%\.godspeed, this PC's Godspeed settings. If you locked keys in your mission control, it also holds the key that opens them: keep a copy if you will install again.
3. Delete your mission control folder, usually %USERPROFILE%\godspeed-v2.

mc-uninstall leaves Hermes, the program that runs your assistant, since other programs may use it. If nothing else does, remove it. On Linux, also delete ~/.local/share/uv unless you use uv.

rm -rf ~/.hermes ~/.local/bin/hermes ~/.local/bin/hermes-agent ~/.local/bin/hermes-acp

It also keeps ~/.godspeed/age-key.txt, if there is one: it opens the passwords your mission control folder keeps. Delete it together with the folder.

Git and Node.js stay, and on a Mac or Linux also gh, GitHub's command. Remove them only if nothing else uses them. Your AI key, a Gmail app password, your private GitHub repository and your Telegram bot stay until you delete them where you made them.

On Windows, uninstall from the Start menu, not Settings, Apps. The uninstaller leaves the commands and the daily job the two editions share. Keep %LOCALAPPDATA%\Godspeed and %USERPROFILE%\.godspeed. On a Mac or Linux, mc-uninstall also removes the commands and scheduled jobs the previous edition uses; run the previous edition's installer again afterwards to bring them back.
