Follow-up to #255.

The macOS tab ended on a ln -sf ~/.cix/runtime/current/cix /usr/local/bin/cix step — a symlink trick inside the one route whose whole point is that it needs no terminal. Installing the app is the macOS install: the server runs, the account exists, and both halves keep themselves updated. That tab now ends there, with a closing line instead of a fourth "step".

The cix command is a separate install and identical on every platform, so it becomes the first shared stepinstall.sh, once, on whichever machine you search from. After the macOS app it needs no configuration either: first run already wrote ~/.cix/config.yaml with the server and an API key.

The detail is deliberately not duplicated on the site. The dashboard's home page already carries the full version — ConnectClaudeCode.tsx, four steps with a connect command derived from that deployment's own host — and it cannot drift the way a copy here would, so the step points at it.

Also: the cix config show output in that block is transcribed from a real run instead of invented (servers (1): / * local url=… key=(set)), and the install line carries CLI_VERSION.

Verified

  • npm run build clean; forbidden-claims check passes
  • built dist/ served with the production CSP from _headers: renders, no violations
  • macOS tab is three steps + closing note; shared steps renumbered 01–04

The macOS tab ended on `ln -sf ~/.cix/runtime/current/cix
/usr/local/bin/cix`, which put a symlink trick inside the one route whose
whole point is that it needs no terminal. Installing the app IS the macOS
install: the server runs, the account exists, both halves keep themselves
updated.

The `cix` command is a separate thing and the same on every platform, so
it becomes the first of the shared steps instead — install.sh, once, on
whichever machine you search from. It needs no configuration after the app
either, because first run already wrote ~/.cix/config.yaml with the server
and an API key.

The detail is not duplicated here: the dashboard's home page carries the
full version (ConnectClaudeCode.tsx — four steps with a connect command
derived from that deployment's own host), and it cannot go stale the way a
copy on this site would, so the step points at it.

The `cix config show` output in the block is transcribed from a real run
rather than invented, and the install line now carries CLI_VERSION.
