Forge & Code
Quickstart
From a new account to your first task in a few minutes: activate your account, pick a surface, sign in and ask for something.
1. Activate your Forge & Code account
- Sign in to your dashboard (or create a free account first).
- Open Forge & Code in the menu, then Overview.
- Click Activate my account and choose a plan.
- Free opens your account at once with 500 FRODI each month. A paid plan opens the secure payment page, then brings you back to the dashboard as soon as the payment is confirmed.
- Back on the overview you see your plan, its status and the percentage of your allowance already used.
Prices follow your country
The pricing table opens on your country and shows its currency. If your country is not in the list, it falls back to Togo (XOF). You can pick another country from the same list.
2. Pick a surface
| Surface | How to get it |
|---|---|
| Forge | Nothing to install. Use Open Forge on the Forge & Code page of your dashboard. |
| CLI | Coming soon. Join the waitlist. |
| Desktop app | Coming soon. Join the waitlist. |
| Editor extension | Coming soon. Join the waitlist. |
Coming soon
Install commands and downloads will be published here when the CLI, the desktop app and the editor extension open. Join the waitlist to hear the day it happens.
3. Sign in
Every surface offers the same two ways to connect. Choose RodiumAi account to spend your FRODI allowance (a browser window opens), or an API key (rd_sk_...) to bill the key's wallet in RODI.
Sign in from the CLI
…In the desktop app and the editor extension, the same choice is on the sign-in screen.
4. Run your first task
- Open a project folder in your terminal, the desktop app or your editor.
- Start RodiumAi Code. In the CLI, run
rodiumin the project folder. - Describe what you want, for example: explain this repository, or add a unit test for
utils.ts. - Read the plan. Press
Tabin the CLI to switch between plan mode (read-only) and act mode. - Approve the steps you are happy with. Nothing is edited behind your back unless you turned auto-approval on.

…5. Check your allowance
Your Forge & Code overview shows the percentage of the current allowance already used, how many FRODI are left and when they reset. The CLI reports the same figures:
…In the desktop app and the editor, use /status or /account in the chat.
