Getting Started

Getting started takes about 30 seconds:

Download — Get the Windows executable
Run — Double-click to launch (no install)
Connect — Add an API key or connect your AI subscription
Code — Start asking questions and giving tasks

/connect      # Set up your AI access
/models       # Choose a model
/skills       # Load a specialized workflow skill

Then just type naturally:

> Explain what this project does
> Find all functions that handle authentication
> Add input validation to the login form
