Codewhale documentation

Find the guidance you need.

Start with the getting-started guide and installation, or go straight to vocabulary, modes, permissions, tools, providers, Fleet, hooks, MCP, and the Runtime API. These pages are the product documentation; each one cites the source documents in the repository for full detail.

Erste Schritte

Vier Schritte von einem Installationsbefehl bis zur einsatzbereiten Fleet. Jeder Schritt beschreibt nur, was der aktuelle Kandidat wirklich tut; alles Unveröffentlichte oder nicht Aufgezeichnete ist als solches gekennzeichnet.

  1. Install Codewhale

    One npm command installs the dispatcher and terminal runtime. Cargo, archives, Docker, Nix, and China mirrors are documented alternatives — published releases only.

    npm install -g codewhale

  2. Open a first session — no key needed

    Launches without any API key: short constitution-first setup, then the full interface. Explore in Plan mode — always read-only. Model replies need a provider; that's the next step.

  3. Connect a provider

    Pick a supported route — hosted key, gateway, or keyless local runtime (Ollama, vLLM, SGLang). Provider and model stay explicit; reasoning and routing provenance stay separate, and unavailable values stay unavailable.

  4. Set up your ideal fleet

    Add every provider you use — one auth set per hosted route; keyless local runtimes need nothing — then author the team: /fleet setup walks one role at a time (a model from any configured provider, a thinking tier, permissions) and saves a reusable profile for this repo or every repo on this machine. Fleet state lives in the workspace ledger; ordinary single tasks need none of this.

Eine echte Sitzung ansehen

Unten ist der Slot für echtes Sitzungsmaterial. Er ist bewusst im Status „ausstehend“: Solange die Dogfood-Aufnahme des v0.9.2-Kandidaten nicht existiert, zeigt diese Seite kein Platzhalter- oder gestellt Material.

Recording pending release candidate

No placeholder or staged footage is shown here. When the recording exists, the real session ships with a poster frame, bilingual captions, a transcript, and an optional GIF fallback download.

A real Codewhale session, end to endWill be recorded from the v0.9.4 release candidate during dogfood: install, first offline session, provider connection, and one Fleet workflow on a sealed local route. Until that recording exists, no footage is shown here — the manifest and budgets above are the contract it must satisfy.Recording plan and acceptance checklist ↗

Wie geht es weiter

Hooks

React to lifecycle events — before and after tool calls, on turn end, on session events — with project-local trust rules.

Modes and permission postures

Plan / Work / Operate and Ask / Auto-Review / Full Access, exactly as the runtime enforces them.

Documentation hub

Every topic, searchable, each page citing its source document in the repository.
