1. Install
App
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
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
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.
There are two ways to start.
- Start in the terminal — a terminal opens inside Amenbo, in the folder you linked.
- Start in your own terminal — if you would rather use the one you know, the same request text is one press away.
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.
The tasks your AI registers appear on the board you are looking at.
