Installing

  1. Mac: open the downloaded .dmg and drag Spikefrost into Applications.
  2. Windows: run the installer — the app opens by itself when it finishes.
  3. Sign in with your Spikefrost account — your Apps appear automatically.

Requires an Apple Silicon Mac or Windows 10+ (64-bit). Intel Mac builds are on the roadmap. The app keeps itself up to date on both platforms.

Prefer the command line?

The sf CLI gives developers and coding agents the full platform from the Terminal — check out and push app files, build, deploy, and manage agents, connectors, and data. The Spikefrost desktop app ships with it built in.

curl -fsSL https://edge.spikefrost.com/sf/install.sh | sh

macOS, Linux and WSL. The installer brings its own Node.js if you don’t have a recent one, and keeps itself current. Then sign in with sf login.

Changing apps by chat?

The desktop app works with either Claude Code CLI or Codex CLIto edit and deploy your apps. Install and sign in to at least one of them with your own account before starting a chat.

Run jobs on your own machine

An edge node is a computer you own running a Spike worker. It pulls jobs from Spikefrost and executes them locally with your own Claude Code or Codex seat — for work that has to happen on your hardware, against a private repository or an internal network.

Fresh Linux box or EC2 instance

curl -fsSL https://edge.spikefrost.com/sf/ec2-bootstrap.sh | sudo bash

One command, or paste it as cloud-init user-data at launch. Installs everything, starts the service, and prints the node's connection string.

A Mac, or a machine you already run

sf edge pair

Prints the connection string; sf edge service start runs it in the background.
