   I am glad you were able to get up and running.  Thanks for the issue!
   
   > 1. Adding `bin`  to `$PATH`
   
   I'll update the docs to use `./bin/muchos` everywhere
   
   > 2. muchos only runs on `python2.7` (this means I had to create a virtualenv)
   
   Muchos should be upgraded to python3. I'll created an issue. In the meantime, I think the `muchos` script should be fixed so that python2 is picked when run.
   
   > 3. I had to pip install `python-dateutil`, `jmespath`, and `ansible` into the virtualenv to get up and running.
   
   The only libraries that the Muchos python code requires is `boto3`.  I should make this more clear and include a requirements.txt.  Currently, the `./bin/muchos` downloads boto3 and botocore but using `pip` is better.  I am not sure why you needed to pip install `ansible`. Ansible should not be needed in any python code and should only be needed on leader node to run ansible playbooks.
   
   > 4. You must be running `ssh-agent` for agent proxying to work otherwise the ansible (running on the leader node) cannot connect to the other nodes.
   
   This was needed on machine where you cloned `muchos` repo, correct? I'll update docs to tell users to run `ssh-agent` on this machine.
