    I had the same question. Here's the answer:

    The Archive Team Warrior is a virtual archiving appliance. You can run it to help with the Archive Team archiving efforts. It will download sites and upload them to our archive—and it’s really easy to do!

    The warrior is a container running inside a virtual machine, so there is almost no security risk to your computer. ("Almost", because in practice nothing is 100% secure.) The warrior will only use your bandwidth and some of your disk space, as well as some of your CPU and memory. It will get tasks from and report progress to the Tracker.

    If only the readme clearly said what it was with a link you could click…

    somehow I didn't see anything above getting started. Looking again I don't know how I missed it with the big logos unless they didn't load and the rest was behind a notification or something.
