Getting started

k4tron is a coding agent that reads, edits and runs code in your project. You can use it inside VS Code or directly in the terminal. Both clients use the same account and share your sessions.

Choose a client

VS Code extension

Use k4tron inside your editor, with a conversation feed, diffs and action approval.

• Install the VS Code extension
• Use the extension in the editor

CLI in the terminal

Use k4tron in any terminal, alongside the editor you prefer.

• Install the CLI
• Use the CLI and its commands

Next steps

The recommended path, in order:

1. Install a client — the extension or the CLI;
2. Connect your account;
3. Send your first task — see the CLI usage or the extension usage.

If something doesn’t work, see troubleshooting.

Sessions are shared between VS Code and the CLI. You can start in the editor and continue in the terminal, or do the reverse, with the same conversation and context.
