amenbo

Start

Install amenbo, and hand the request to your AI.

Your part ends here. From here on, keeping the record is the AI's side.

1. Install

App

Installer (.pkg) — Apple silicon Installer (.pkg) — Intel

Not sure which Mac you have? Apple menu → About This Mac, and read the Chip line: an Apple M-series chip means Apple silicon, an Intel Core means Intel.

Self-signed — on first launch, right-click → Open (or System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway).

App

Installer (.exe) — x64 Installer (.exe) — Arm

Not sure which PC you have? Settings → System → About, and read the System type line: “ARM-based processor” means Arm, anything else means x64.

Unsigned — if SmartScreen appears, choose More info → Run.

App

App (.AppImage) — x86_64 App (.AppImage) — arm64

Not sure which one you need? Run uname -m in a terminal — if it prints aarch64, take arm64.

The AppImage is a self-contained desktop app. No root needed — make it executable and run it.

2. Create a project

The first time you launch it, a short setup runs: language, then your name, then a theme.

After that, choose “Create a project”, give it a name, pick the folder you want managed, and create it.

3. Paste the request

Once it is created, a done screen appears. This is where the first tasks get registered.

  1. “Open a terminal” opens one in the folder you linked.
  2. “Copy the request”, then paste it into your AI as it is. Any AI will do.
  3. The tasks your AI registers appear on the board you are looking at.

This is what you paste:

This folder is managed with amenbo. Run amenbo agent --json and follow it, managing the work in amenbo as you go.
