Build your own agent kit — Install Amp

Amp installs via a curl-to-bash script Note user: "1000". That's the agent user. Install commands run as root (UID 0) by default, and Amp's installer puts the binary in the user's home directory. Running as root would land the binary in /root/ where the agent can't reach it.
