THE FIREHOSE GUIDE

Put your agents to work.

Read as Markdown

Give a coding agent a task. Follow the conversation, answer its questions, and review the changes—all in one Firehose workspace.

Install Firehose →

What you need: a Mac or Linux computer, a Firehose subscription, and an agent tool such as Claude Code or Codex. These guides describe Firehose 1.0.1.

  • Set up Firehose Install and activate it, then open it on your computer or your phone.
  • Start a session Choose a workspace, send a useful request, and check the answer.
  • Review the result Read the changed lines and decide what needs another pass.
  1. Your browser Send requests and read results, on your computer or your phone.
  2. Your computer Firehose and your agent sessions run on the computer where you installed it. It needs to be on for you to connect.
  3. Your project folder Files and commands belong to the session’s folder. Save example files and run terminal checks there.

A provider is the agent system you choose when starting a session, such as Claude or Codex. Providers have their own setup, model access, and permission controls.

Understand unfamiliar code before asking for a small change. Use Questions to clarify decisions, Smart Review for another assessment, and the finish-task checklist before closing a session.

For ongoing project work, prepare the environment, complete a browser task, or coordinate several sessions. Learn how to recover unwanted edits and return to a task later.

If something doesn’t match what you expect, find your symptom. The tool guide and glossary are here when you need them.
