GETTING STARTED

Start Using Cenmax AI

Choose the Cenmax AI client that best fits how you work.

You can use Cenmax AI through the CLI, Visual Studio Code, the desktop application, or the API.

All clients connect to the same Cenmax AI models and account system. The best option depends on where you prefer to work.

Choose a Client

Client	Best For
CLI	Terminal-first development and automation
VS Code	Developers who want Cenmax AI inside their editor
macOS app	Standalone desktop workflow on Mac
Windows app	Standalone desktop workflow on Windows
API	Building your own applications and agents

Use the CLI if you spend most of your development time in a terminal.

It works well for repository inspection, planning, code changes, testing, and longer agentic tasks without requiring an editor integration.

See CLI and VS Code for installation.

Use the VS Code extension if you want Cenmax AI available directly inside your editor.

This is a good default for developers who want repository-aware assistance without leaving their normal coding environment.

Cenmax AI also provides standalone desktop applications for macOS and Windows.

The initial 0.1.0 desktop builds are currently distributed unsigned while our production code-signing setup is being completed.

Your operating system may therefore show an additional security warning during installation or first launch.

See Desktop Apps for details.

Use the API when you want to integrate Worker or Pro into your own software, agents, internal tools, or development workflows.

The API endpoint is:

https://api.ai.cenmax.in/v1

See API Quickstart to send your first request.

Manage your Cenmax AI account at:

https://console.ai.cenmax.in

The public Cenmax AI website, documentation, and journals are available at:

Regardless of which client you choose, sign in with the account that should own the usage and billing for your work.
