 "title": "Code with the Mu desktop app and no terminal",
 "page_title": "How to code with the Mu desktop app and no terminal with Mu",
 "summary": "Install the desktop app, connect a model, and watch the judge decisions in one window.",
 "who": "A non-developer or occasional coder who wants an AI coding agent without setting up a command line.",
 "problem": "Command line setup and reading raw logs put off people who just want the agent to do the work.",
 "outcome": "A working desktop app with a connected model and a Judge tab that shows each verdict.",
 "steps": [
  "Download the installer for macOS, Windows or Linux from https://github.com/qybaihe/mu/releases/latest.",
  "Open the installer and install the app.",
  "Paste an API key, or sign in with a ChatGPT, Claude, Grok or Google subscription.",
  "Run one small task in the app and open the Judge tab to see each verdict and its timing."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Download the mu desktop installer for this operating system from https://github.com/qybaihe/mu/releases/latest, install it, and connect a model with <API key or subscription>. Expected output: the app opens and completes one task. Verify that the Judge tab lists verdicts with their timing.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Beginner",
 "time": "15 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Mu is in early development (0.1.x), and the README's desktop app screenshot uses a scripted coding model, so expect rough edges.",

 "lang": "typescript",
 "requirements": [
  "Node.js 22.19 or newer for the command line, or the desktop installer for macOS, Windows or Linux",
  "An API key or a supported ChatGPT, Claude, Grok or Google subscription (the free Jev on OpenCode Zen answers until you set a judge key)",
  "A project folder to work in"
