- Codex & Claude Code sessions
- Use the supported assistant runtimes and their setup guidance. Their accounts, online services and billing remain separate from Fictor.
- Build apps with a local model
- Install Ollama and a compatible model that fits your computer. Local generation can require substantial memory; speed depends on your hardware and model.
Linux quick start
- Download fictor_v0.2.0-alpha.5_linux_amd64.tar.gz and SHA256SUMS into the same folder.
- Verify the archive:
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS - Extract it:
tar -xzf fictor_v0.2.0-alpha.5_linux_amd64.tar.gz - Open the extracted folder and run:
./fictor doctor - For local use, install Ollama and a compatible model that suits your computer. Model requirements vary; check current model details before choosing.
- Install Fictor and its browser-verification runtime:
./fictor install - Move to another directory and confirm the installed runtime remains ready:
cd /tmp && fictor doctor - Start Fictor:
fictor - Before your first build, open Fictor Settings and select a compatible model already installed in Ollama. Optional supported OpenAI or Anthropic models can be configured in Settings; Fictor asks before cloud operations and shows what will be sent.
Requirements
- Linux on an x86-64 Intel or AMD computer. Other platforms are not distributed in this release.
- Google Chrome or Chromium-compatible Chrome installation to try candidate apps.
- Node.js 22.12 or newer for browser-verification evidence.
- Ollama and a compatible model installed for local use. Model memory, speed, and capabilities vary, so choose one that suits your computer and select it in Fictor Settings before your first build. Supported OpenAI or Anthropic models are optional; Fictor asks before cloud operations and explains what will be sent.
- Comfort with early installation. This alpha still requires downloading and extracting a Linux archive, setting up Ollama, and running terminal commands. The included installer places the Fictor binary and browser-verification runtime under
~/.local. - Generated-code review before reliance or deployment. The alpha licence requires this as a risk precaution. You may do it yourself or obtain appropriate help; it is not required to describe or try an app.
