This guide gets you from install to a first productive session with Maestro.
1. Install and launch
Follow the Installation instructions for your platform, then launch Maestro.
2. Create an agent (or use the Wizard)
Maestro supports Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, and OpenCode as providers. Make sure at least one is installed and authenticated.
Option A: Quick Setup Create your first agent manually using the + button in the sidebar.
Option B: Onboarding Wizard (Recommended for new users)
Press Cmd+Shift+N / Ctrl+Shift+N to launch the Onboarding Wizard, which guides you through:
- Selecting an AI provider
- Choosing your project directory
- Having a discovery conversation where the AI learns about your project
- Generating an initial Auto Run document with tasks
The Wizard creates a fully configured agent with an Auto Run document folder ready to go.
Introductory Tour
After completing the Wizard, you'll be offered an Introductory Tour that highlights key UI elements:
- The AI Terminal and how to interact with it
- The Auto Run panel and how batch processing works
- File Explorer and preview features
- Keyboard shortcuts for power users
You can skip the tour and access it later via Quick Actions (Cmd+K / Ctrl+K) → "Start Tour".
3. Open a project
Point your new agent at a project directory. Maestro will detect git repos automatically and enable git-aware features like diffs, logs, and worktrees.
4. Start a conversation
Use the AI Terminal to talk with your AI provider, and the Command Terminal for shell commands. Toggle between them with Cmd+J / Ctrl+J. Each tab in the AI Terminal is a separate session.
5. Try Auto Run
Create a markdown checklist, then run it through Auto Run to see the spec-driven workflow in action. See Auto Run + Playbooks for a full walkthrough.
