Quick start
What Oxide needs on your machine, then the steps from a first prompt to a pull request.
Requirements
| Provider | Command | Install |
|---|---|---|
| Claude Code | claude | docs.claude.com |
| Codex | codex | github.com/openai/codex |
| Antigravity CLI | agy | Google Antigravity |
git is required. The GitHub CLI (gh, logged in) is optional and enables the pull request and Issues features.
Steps
- Install and log in to at least one Provider (for example, run
claudeonce in a terminal). - Launch Oxide and press ⌘⇧N (Ctrl+Shift+N on Windows) to open the Project palette: pick a folder, create one with
git init, or clone a repository. - Start a Thread, choose the Provider, Model and Permission mode, and write your prompt.
- When the Turn finishes, open the Diff Surface: review the Turn, read the Dossier, leave Line comments or revert what you don't want.
- Commit & Push, then open the pull request from the Pull request Surface.
Take your next Turn all the way to the merge.
Oxide drives the Claude Code, Codex or Antigravity CLI you already use. Open a Project, start a Thread and review what comes back.
