Installation
macOS:
- Download the DMG file for your Mac:
- Intel Mac:
macos-dmg-x64
- Apple Silicon:
macos-dmg-arm64
- Open the DMG file
- Drag Mux to Applications folder
- Open the app normally
The app is code-signed and notarized by Apple, so it will open without security warnings.
Linux:
- Download the AppImage file
- Make it executable:
chmod +x Mux-*.AppImage
- Run it:
./Mux-*.AppImage
Windows (alpha):
- Download the installer exe from releases (e.g.,
mux-x.x.x-x64.exe)
- Run the installer
- Follow the installation prompts
- Launch Mux from the Start menu or desktop shortcut
Testing Pre-Release Builds
Only builds from the main branch are signed and notarized. If you’re testing a build from a pull
request or other branch, you’ll need to bypass macOS Gatekeeper:
- After installing, open Terminal
- Run:
xattr -cr /Applications/Mux.app
- Run:
codesign --force --deep --sign - /Applications/Mux.app
- Now you can open the app normally
CLI via npm
The mux CLI can also be run directly via npx without installing the desktop app:
# Run agent tasks
npx mux run "Fix the failing tests"
# Start the server for remote/mobile access
npx mux server --port 3000
Or install globally:
This is ideal for CI/CD pipelines and scripted automation. See the CLI documentation for all available commands and options.
