CODEE lives in this folder.

This package feels like local software, but connects to Codee Cloud when the client needs hosted delivery, support, affiliate links, backend services, or frontend updates. Version: 2026.05.30-cli-ready-v2

Mac users can double-click START_CODEE_MAC.command. Windows users can double-click START_CODEE_WINDOWS.bat.

What CLI means

CLI means command-line interface. In plain terms, it is the local command tool inside Ai K9 CODEE. It gives CODEE hands in the folder: prepare files, generate starter pages, run scans, write support packets, and prove what changed.

CODEE can prepare the work locally. Live hosting, backend services, Stripe/paywall work, and customer delivery rooms still wait for the paid route or owner-approved support path.

What double-click does

The launcher opens Terminal or Command Prompt inside this folder. It installs the local ./codee command, asks for business name, email, and website/social link, writes local proof files, creates a first index.html preview, and prints the next commands.

It does not auto-deploy live. Live hosting, backend services, Stripe/paywall work, and customer delivery rooms happen after the client chooses the paid route or owner-approved support path.

Mac: easiest path

1. Move this folder to your Desktop.
2. Double-click START_CODEE_MAC.command.
3. If macOS blocks it, right-click the file, choose Open, then Open again.
4. Follow the prompts for business name, email, and website or social profile.
