Install Flowviant Machines

Flowviant runs on a machine you control, using your own Claude Code or Codex login inside your own repository. On Windows, that machine is Flowviant Machines, a small tray app.

Before you install

Flowviant Machines needs Windows 10 or 11 with WSL, and your project’s repository cloned inside it. Install git and Claude Code or Codex inside WSL and sign in there — Flowviant runs the CLI you already have, on your own login.

Install on Windows

Download Flowviant Machines from flowviant.com/download and run the installer. It isn’t signed yet, so Windows will say it protected your PC. Choose More info, then Run anyway.

Open Flowviant Machines and choose Connect a project. Pick your repository folder inside WSL — it starts with \\wsl.localhost\ — and your browser opens a page with the code already filled in. Sign in if you need to, pick the project, and press Approve. This computer then serves the project: plan and review work at app.flowviant.com.

Install on Linux or macOS

From a terminal inside your repository, run:

curl -fsSL https://api.flowviant.com/install.sh | sh

Then run flowviant login in the same repository. It opens your browser to approve the connection, stores the credential, and keeps running so the machine can pick up work.
