Install

FXCode is a service: your account lives at app.fxcode.dev and everything else connects to it. Pick what you need; you can combine all of them.

Option	What it’s for	Setup
Web app	The full dashboard	Nothing: open it in your browser
Desktop app	FXCode in its own window and in the tray	Installer for Windows, macOS or Linux
fxc CLI	Tasks, ideas and notes from the terminal and scripts	One-line installer (single binary)
MCP server	Let your assistant (Claude, Cursor…) read and update your tasks	Ships with the CLI
Agent skills	Make your coding agents follow the FXCode way of working	Link two folders

Rather host it yourself? See Self-hosted.

Web app

Sign in at app.fxcode.dev with Google, Microsoft, GitHub, an email link or email and password. There’s nothing to install.

Desktop app

Opens FXCode in its own window, lives in the system tray, and shows or hides with Ctrl + Alt + F (⌘ + ⌥ + F on Mac).

Download the latest version: Windows (.exe, or the .msi) · macOS (universal .dmg) · Linux (.AppImage, or the .deb / .rpm). Installation and unsigned-app warnings: Desktop app.

CLI fxc

A single binary, no Node required. The installer downloads the latest version (no account needed), checks its SHA-256 and puts it on your PATH; run it again to update:

# macOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://api.fxcode.dev/downloads/cli/install-sh | sh

# Windows (PowerShell)
irm https://api.fxcode.dev/downloads/cli/install-ps1 | iex

Then sign in:

fxc auth login --web --api-url https://api.fxcode.dev

Building from the repository with Node, binaries per system and best practices: fxc CLI.

MCP server

With the CLI installed and signed in, register it in your client:

# Claude Code
claude mcp add fxcode --scope user -- fxc mcp

In Cursor, Claude Desktop and other clients, add a stdio server with the command fxc and the argument mcp. Tools and configuration: MCP server.

Agent skills

From the repository folder, link the skills into your skills directory:

mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
ln -s "$PWD/skills/fxc" ~/.claude/skills/fxc
ln -s "$PWD/skills/fxc-scan" ~/.claude/skills/fxc-scan

On Windows, use New-Item -ItemType Junction. Details and what each one does: Agent skills.
