Documentation — Rofiant Code

Quick start

Install with one command, then run rofiant from the project you want to work on.

macOS / Linux

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RofiantAI/Rofiant-Code/main/install.sh | bash

Windows (PowerShell)

Rofiant Code needs an OpenAI-compatible model endpoint. Set one before launch:

export AI_API_KEY="your-key"
export AI_BASE_URL="https://openrouter.ai/api/v1"
export AI_MODEL="nvidia/nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b:free"
rofiant

Or run /login inside the app to save a key locally instead.
