# Quick start

> Install the reclaude CLI, log in through the browser device flow, and start running Claude Code in under two minutes on macOS, Linux, or Windows.

<Note>
  Before you start, sign up and pick a plan at [codewing.link](https://www.codewing.link/).
</Note>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Install the CLI">
    In your terminal, paste the command for your OS:

    <CodeGroup>
      ```bash macOS / Linux theme={null}
      curl -fsSL https://www.codewing.link/install.sh | bash
      ```

      ```powershell Windows theme={null}
      iwr https://www.codewing.link/install.ps1 -UseBasicParsing | iex
      ```
    </CodeGroup>

    The installer detects your CPU architecture and drops `reclaude` on your PATH. Claude Code itself needs no separate install — reclaude downloads it automatically the first time you run it (no VPN needed), or uses your official Claude Code if you already have one.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Log in">
    ```bash theme={null}
    reclaude login
    ```

    The terminal prints an authorization link. Open it in your browser, sign in to your codewing account, name this device, and click **Approve**. The terminal will finish login a few seconds later.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Run Claude Code">
    Just run:

    ```bash theme={null}
    reclaude
    ```

    reclaude starts the local daemon in the background, then launches Claude Code as usual. Requests are served by the account reclaude has assigned to you.
  </Step>
