+# No Installation Needed — GitHub UI Path
+
+## 🎯 What You'll Do
+
+You'll use GitHub Copilot to initialize your repository for GitHub Agentic Workflows, review the pull request it opens, and continue to workflow authoring with no local installation required.
+
+If you decide you want a terminal after all, switch to [Install gh-aw — Codespace Terminal](06a-install-terminal.md) or [Install gh-aw — Local Terminal](06b-install-local.md).
+
+## How this path works
+
+On the GitHub UI path, you do not install `gh-aw` locally. You stay on github.com, ask GitHub Copilot to initialize the repository for agentic workflows, and let GitHub-hosted automation handle compilation and execution.
+
+![GitHub-hosted execution flow for the UI path](images/06c-github-hosted-execution.svg)
+
+In practice, that means:
+
+- You write or review workflow changes in the GitHub web UI.
+- An agent initializes the repository files for you in a pull request.
+- GitHub Actions runs the committed lock file on GitHub's infrastructure.
+
+## Initialize the repository
+
+Open your practice repository in the GitHub Copilot app and start a session in **Interactive** mode, or open the repository's **Copilot** or **Agents** tab and start a new session.
+
+**Paste this prompt:**
+
+```text
+Initialize this repository for GitHub Agentic Workflows using https://raw.githubusercontent.com/github/gh-aw/main/install.md
+
+Run the setup in the session workspace, commit the initialized repository files, and open a pull request. Show me the diff before merging.
+```
+
+Review the pull request and confirm it adds the initialization files you need for the browser path, such as `.github/skills/agentic-workflows/`, `.github/mcp.json`, and `.github/workflows/copilot-setup-steps.yml`. Then merge it into `main`.
+
+## ✅ Checkpoint
+
+- [ ] You understand that the browser path does not require a local `gh-aw` install
+- [ ] `.github/skills/agentic-workflows/` exists in your repository
+- [ ] You know you can stay on github.com for the rest of this path
