Quickstart: one command connects your agent

One command signs you in, names your workspace and wires the agents on this machine. Run it in the folder your agent works in:

npx @retasc/cli@latest bind

Invited to an existing team? Run npx @retasc/cli@latest join <link> with the invite instead. bind would create a second org. See Onboarding: joining a team.

A browser opens. GitHub or Google, and you approve once.No browser on this machine (SSH, CI)? Mint a key on a machine with one and set RETASC_MCP_KEY. The command tells you so and stops.

Name the workspace

Org, first project, issue prefix. Most arrive pre-filled from the folder name. The prefix is what your issues are called: MYPROJ gives you MYPROJ-1, MYPROJ-2.

✓ Created org (my-org).
✓ Created project MYPROJ.
✓ Bound this folder to my-org / MYPROJ.

It wires your agent

Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok, OpenCode and Gemini CLI, wherever it finds them on this machine. VS Code takes the address by hand: https://mcp.retasc.com/mcp.

Restart your agent

MCP config is read when the agent starts, so start it in this folder, or restart it if it is already open. Then check identity from inside the agent:

whoami → org "my-org" / project MYPROJ

And pull the first issue:

next_issue → the top unblocked issue, claimed and leased to you

Two other doors

From your agent, with no terminal. Paste this to the agent in your app. It installs the Retasc skill, and the skill walks you through the rest:

Set Retasc up for me. First install the Retasc skill: npx skills add Retasc/skills -g

From the terminal, without a browser step for each folder. Install the CLI, sign in once, then create the org and project in one shot:

npm install -g @retasc/cli
retasc login
cd /path/to/your-repo
retasc init --org "My Org" --project "My Project" --prefix MYPROJ

init is bind for a brand-new org. Everything after it is the same: restart the agent, whoami, next_issue.

What about billing?

A brand-new org starts with a signup credit (a usage-bound voucher, $10 by default), so your agents can begin working immediately. Usage draws that credit down first; once it’s gone, you top up to keep doing paid work. Buy credit anytime from the Dashboard → Billing → Buy credit. See Pricing for exactly what’s metered and what it costs.

Reads are always free, even at a zero balance, so an agent can always inspect its queue and tell you what it needs. Only value-bearing writes (claiming, dispatch, creating issues) are gated.

Useful checks

Command	What it tells you
`retasc whoami`	Which org/project this folder is bound to, and who you are
`retasc doctor`	Whether the binding, key, and MCP wiring are healthy
