Just run `plandex` in any project to get started.\n\n- 🛠️ **CLI interface** for scripting or piping data into context.\n\n- 📦 **One-line, zero dependency CLI install**. Dockerized local mode for easily self-hosting the server. Cloud-hosting options for extra reliability and convenience.\n\n---\n\n## Install  📥\n\n```bash\ncurl -sL https://plandex.ai/install.sh | bash\n```\n\n**Note:** Windows is supported via [WSL](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install). Plandex only works correctly on Windows in the WSL shell. It doesn't work in the Windows CMD prompt or PowerShell.\n\n[More installation options.](https://docs.plandex.ai/install)\n\n---\n\n## Hosting  ⚖️\n\n| Option                     | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 |\n| -------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |\n| **Plandex Cloud**          | Winding down as of 10/3/2025 and no longer accepting new users. <a href=\"https://plandex.ai/blog/winding-down\">Learn more.</a>                                                                                                                                                                                                                              |\n| **Self-hosted/Local Mode** | • Run Plandex locally with Docker or host on your own server.<br/>• Use your own [OpenRouter.ai](https://openrouter.ai) key (or [other model provider](https://docs.plandex.ai/models/model-providers) accounts and API keys).<br/>• Follow the [local-mode quickstart](https://docs.plandex.ai/hosting/self-hosting/local-mode-quickstart) to get started. |\n\n---\n\n## Claude Pro/Max subscription  🖇️\n\nIf you have a Claude Pro or Max subscription, Plandex can use it when calling Anthropic models.
