Get started
Self-host QuoxCORE, or let Claude set it up.
QuoxCORE runs from Docker Compose on your own hardware. If you would rather not run the commands yourself, point Claude Code at Quoxpert and it stands the stack up for you.
In plain words
What it is, where it lives, when to reach for it
- What is it
- The install guide for QuoxCORE, the self-hosted platform, from a bare host to first login.
- Where do I use it
- On a Linux server or VM you own, with Docker and the Compose plugin.
- When would I use it
- When you are ready to run the platform on your own hardware.
- How do I use it
- Run
curl -fsSL https://get.quox.ai | sh, or follow the manual clone-and-compose steps below.
QuoxCORE is the free, self-hosted platform underneath this. What is QuoxCORE
Quick self-host path
Install with Docker Compose.
The script below runs the same clone-and-compose steps in the next section, unattended, on your own machine. It is not a shortcut that hides what happens: every command it runs is listed below, so you can read the script first, or type the steps yourself instead of piping to a shell.
Orchestration, agents, memory and governed tools, live in a few real commands, not a black box.
curl -fsSL https://get.quox.ai | shNeeds Git, Docker Compose and a Linux or macOS host.
Source opens at launch. Until then this command reaches private repos and will ask for access; it is shown so you can see exactly how install works.
What that command actually does
Three real steps. No magic.
QuoxCORE installs with Docker Compose, not a single opaque binary. Here are the exact commands the script runs for you, if you would rather read them or type them by hand.
git clone https://github.com/quoxai/quox.git && git clone https://github.com/quoxai/quoxflow.git && git clone https://github.com/quoxai/quoxmcp.git && cd quoxNeeds Git, Docker Compose and a Linux or macOS host.
Why two sibling reposquoxflow and quoxmcp are mandatory checkouts, cloned as siblings of quox, not subfolders of it. Withoutquoxflow, docker compose build fails on the workflow service. Withoutquoxmcp, MCP tools are not available to agents. The clone command above gets all three.
Once the containers report healthy, open https://localhost:3000 and complete the Setup Wizard. That is how the first admin account and organisation get created: there is no seed script to run in production, by design.
Deploying on a public, internet-facing boxAdd the hardened compose override so the containers never mount the Docker socket or your home directory:docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.public.yml up -d. The full deploy guide covers TLS, firewalling and backups.
Before you start
What you need.
Any Linux box that runs current Docker will do. Nothing exotic.

Claude-managed setup.
Point Claude Code at Quoxpert and it installs, configures and runs QuoxCORE for you. Quoxpert makes your Claude an instant expert at Quox: it drives the quox CLI and the Quox MCP tools to stand up the stack, complete the Setup Wizard, and operate it day to day, governed and logged like everything else on the platform.
