Introduction

Sapiom helps you build agents: controlled, multi-step TypeScript automations that you can test locally, deploy, and operate in the cloud. Start with one of the three supported authoring paths below. They all lead to the same agent project and lifecycle.

Choose how to start

Install the desktop app Open Agent Studio as a native app. It supplies its own Node tooling and can install Claude Code during first launch.

Run Agent Studio with npx Launch the same local Studio UI from an existing folder. Requires Node 20+ and Claude Code.

Connect Claude Code with MCP Use Claude Code directly with Sapiom's local authoring tools, without opening Agent Studio.

Install Agent Studio

Download the desktop app for an Apple-silicon Mac, Windows x64, or Linux x86_64. The app opens Agent Studio in its own window and manages the local runtime it needs.

Run Agent Studio from a terminal

If Node 20+ and Claude Code are already installed, run this from the folder where you want to work:

npx @sapiom/agent-studio@latest

See Install Agent Studio for first-launch, sign-in, and folder behavior.

Connect Claude Code directly

If you prefer Claude Code’s terminal or IDE experience, register Sapiom’s local authoring MCP:

claude mcp add sapiom -- npx -y @sapiom/mcp

The sapiom name is the Claude Code registration alias. The package provides the local sapiom_dev_* tools used to scaffold, check, test, link, deploy, and run agents. It is not the hosted direct-capability MCP.

Direct capability access

Already know that you need a single capability call rather than a deployable agent? The hosted capability MCP and SDK remain available as reference surfaces; they are not additional Getting Started paths.
