Complete account authentication and machine-local provider detection so Aiola can start repository-aware chat and agent work.

Sign-in methods

Onboarding questions

After authentication, setup asks how you found Aiola and what describes you. These account onboarding questions precede provider detection.

Machine-local provider detection

Provider setup is per machine. After any supported provider is detected, the app stores this local flag:
The value is 1. Later sign-ins on that machine can skip the provider step, including sign-ins with a different account.

Supported providers

  • Claude Code
  • Codex CLI
  • Cursor Agent
  • Grok CLI
  • OpenCode
  • Antigravity CLI

No-provider state

When none is detected, setup stays on the provider step and re-checks every three seconds. Install or authenticate one of the listed CLIs, then use the on-screen re-check action if needed.

Post-setup routing

Re-check providers

Open Central Settings → Connections → Providers to refresh detection, enable or disable providers, and control visible models. See Central settings.
