Getting Started with AI in Moss

Set up AI in Moss in a few minutes.

How it works: Moss uses Claude Code for AI. Once Claude Code is installed and signed in on your computer, AI in Moss is ready. You do not need to paste an API key into Moss.
1

Install Claude Code

To use AI in Moss, install Claude Code first.

If you want more detail, read Anthropic's Claude Code setup guide.

Open the Terminal app on your Mac. Then copy and paste this command, and press Enter:

Terminal
curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash

To check that Claude Code installed correctly, copy and paste this command into the Terminal app, then press Enter:

Terminal
claude --version

You should see a version number. If you see “command not found”, close Terminal, open it again, and follow the official Claude Code setup guide again. Claude Code needs a paid Claude-enabled account such as Pro, Max, Team, Enterprise, or Console access. The free Claude.ai plan does not include Claude Code.

2

Login

After successful install, you need to log in to Claude Code. In the Terminal app, copy and paste this command, then press Enter:

Terminal
claude

Claude Code should open your browser and ask you to sign in. Moss does not have a separate sign-in screen for AI. Once Claude Code is signed in, Moss uses that same login.

To check later whether you are signed in, copy and paste this into the Terminal app, then press Enter:

Terminal
claude auth status

The exact text can vary, but it should show that you are logged in. If it says loggedIn: false, Claude Code is not signed in yet. In that case, copy and paste claude into the Terminal app, press Enter, and finish the browser sign-in.
