pkg update
pkg install nodejs git ripgrep neovim tar
npm install -g slopcode@latest --include=optional
slopcode --helpThe Android TUI uses the bundled Rust runtime by default. Set SLOPCODE_ANDROID_HOST=portable for the JavaScript fallback or SLOPCODE_ANDROID_TUI=1 only when testing a Bun/OpenTUI experiment.
Tip
Remove versions older than 0.1.x before installing.
SlopCode is also available as a desktop application. Download directly from the releases page or slopcode.dev/download.
| Platform | Download |

| macOS (Apple Silicon) | slopcode-desktop-darwin-aarch64.dmg |
| macOS (Intel) | slopcode-desktop-darwin-x64.dmg |
| Windows | slopcode-desktop-windows-x64.exe |
| Linux | .deb, .rpm, or AppImage |
# macOS (Homebrew)
brew install --cask slopcode-desktop
# Windows (Scoop)
scoop bucket add extras; scoop install extras/slopcode-desktopThe install script respects the following priority order for the installation path:
$SLOPCODE_INSTALL_DIR- Custom installation directory$XDG_BIN_DIR- XDG Base Directory Specification compliant path$HOME/bin- Standard user binary directory (if it exists or can be created)$HOME/.slopcode/bin- Default fallback
# Examples
curl -fsSL https://slopcode.dev/install | SLOPCODE_INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local/bin bash
curl -fsSL https://slopcode.dev/install | XDG_BIN_DIR=$HOME/.local/bin bashSlopCode includes two built-in agents you can switch between with the Tab key.
- build - Default, full-access agent for development work
- plan - Read-only agent for analysis and code exploration
- Denies file edits by default
- Asks permission before running bash commands
- Ideal for exploring unfamiliar codebases or planning changes
Also included is a general subagent for complex searches and multistep tasks.
This is used internally and can be invoked using @general in messages.

If you are working on a project that's related to SlopCode and is using "slopcode" as part of its name, for example "slopcode-dashboard" or "slopcode-mobile", please add a note to your README to clarify that it is not built by the SlopCode team and is not affiliated with us in any way.
It's very similar to Claude Code in terms of capability. Here are the key differences:
- 100% open source
- Not coupled to any provider. Although we recommend the models we provide through SlopCode Zen, SlopCode can be used with Claude, OpenAI, Google, or even local models. As models evolve, the gaps between them will close and pricing will drop, so being provider-agnostic is important.
- Out-of-the-box LSP support
- A focus on TUI. SlopCode is built by neovim users and the creators of terminal.shop; we are going to push the limits of what's possible in the terminal.
- A client/server architecture. This, for example, can allow SlopCode to run on your computer while you drive it remotely from a mobile app, meaning that the TUI frontend is just one of the possible clients.
