Once you enter the wizard UI, use Up/Down arrow keys to navigate and press Enter to confirm each action, following the guided initialization flow.

The wizard will help you complete:

• Select UI language (English or Chinese)
• Choose a provider (GLM Coding Plan Global/China, Kimi 2.5, OpenRouter, or NVIDIA)
• Enter your API key
• Select tools to manage
• Automatically configure selected tools
• Manage MCP services (optional)

Command List

Show help

coder-link -h
coder-link --help

Show version

coder-link -v
coder-link --version

Run the initialization wizard

coder-link init

Language management

coder-link lang show              # Display the current language
coder-link lang set zh_CN         # Switch to Chinese
coder-link lang set en_US         # Switch to English
coder-link lang --help            # Show help for language commands

API key management

coder-link auth                              # Interactively set key
coder-link auth glm_coding_plan_global <token>   # Choose Global plan and set key
coder-link auth glm_coding_plan_china <token>   # Choose China plan and set key
coder-link auth kimi <token>                    # Set Kimi API key
coder-link auth openrouter <token>              # Set OpenRouter API key
coder-link auth nvidia <token>                 # Set NVIDIA API key
coder-link auth revoke                       # Delete the saved key
coder-link auth reload <tool>                # Reload config into a tool
coder-link auth --help                        # Show help for auth commands

Tool management

coder-link tools list             # List all supported tools and their status
coder-link tools install <tool>   # Install a coding tool
coder-link tools uninstall <tool> # Uninstall a coding tool

Run a tool directly

Launch any configured coding tool without entering the interactive menu:

coder-link run droid              # Launch Factory Droid with your configured provider
coder-link run claude             # Launch Claude Code
coder-link run opencode           # Launch OpenCode
coder-link run crush              # Launch Crush
coder-link run kimi               # Launch Kimi
coder-link run pi                 # Launch Pi CLI
coder-link run codex              # Launch Codex CLI
coder-link run mastra             # Launch Mastra Code
coder-link run ob1                # Launch OB1 CLI

Options:

coder-link run droid --new-window     # Launch in a new terminal window (Windows only)
coder-link run droid --same-window    # Launch in this terminal
coder-link run droid --skip-config    # Skip provider config sync, just launch
coder-link run droid --model <model>  # Override model to use
coder-link run droid --plan <plan>    # Use a specific provider plan
coder-link run droid --api-key <key>  # Use a specific API key
coder-link run droid --json           # Output as JSON for programmatic use

Tool aliases: You can use short names like droid for factory-droid, claude for claude-code, and mastracode for mastra.

MCP management

coder-link mcp list               # List available MCP services
coder-link mcp installed          # List installed MCP services
coder-link mcp install <service>  # Install an MCP service
coder-link mcp uninstall <service> # Uninstall an MCP service

Health check

coder-link doctor                 # Inspect system configuration and tool status

Configuration File

The configuration file is stored at ~/.coder-link/config.yaml:

lang: zh_CN                    # UI language
plan: glm_coding_plan_global   # Plan type: glm_coding_plan_global, glm_coding_plan_china, or kimi
api_key: your-api-key-here     # API key

How It Works

The tool uses a manager pattern where each coding tool has its own manager class that knows how to:

• Read and write the tool's configuration file
• Inject the appropriate API credentials and endpoints
• Detect existing configurations
• Manage MCP (Model Context Protocol) services

When you run coder-link auth <plan> <token> or use the wizard, the tool:

• Saves your API key and plan type to ~/.coder-link/config.yaml
• For each selected tool, calls its manager's loadConfig() method
• The manager writes the appropriate configuration to the tool's config file
• MCP services can be installed to extend tool capabilities

MCP Services

MCP (Model Context Protocol) allows coding tools to access external services. Built-in MCP services include:

• filesystem: File system operations
• github: GitHub integration

You can also install custom MCP services through the tool's own marketplace (Claude Code) or manually configure them.
