Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed:

• Node.js 18+
• Claude Code or Cursor CLI (already logged in)
• Git

Get Claudable running on your local machine in minutes:

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/opactorai/Claudable.git
cd Claudable

# Install all dependencies
npm install

# Start development server
npm run dev

Your application will be available at http://localhost:3000

Note: Ports are automatically detected. If the default port is in use, the next available port will be assigned.

• Database migration conflicts: If you upgraded from a previous Claudable version and run into database errors, reset the Prisma database so it matches the latest schema:

  npm run prisma:reset

  The command drops and recreates the local database, so back up any data you need before running it.

The npm install command automatically handles the complete setup:

1. Port Configuration: Detects available ports and creates .env files
2. Dependencies: Installs all required Node.js packages
3. Database Setup: SQLite database auto-creates at data/cc.db on first run

Build and run Claudable as a desktop application:

# Development mode
npm run dev:desktop

# Build desktop app
npm run build:desktop

# Package for specific platforms
npm run package:mac      # macOS
npm run package:win      # Windows
npm run package:linux    # Linux

npm run db:backup   # Create a backup of your SQLite database
                    # Use when: Before major changes or deployments
                    # Creates: data/backups/cc_backup_[timestamp].db

npm run db:reset    # Reset database to initial state
                    # Use when: Need fresh start or corrupted data
                    # Warning: This will delete all your data!

npm run clean       # Remove all dependencies
                    # Use when: Dependencies conflict or need fresh install
                    # Removes: node_modules/, package-lock.json
                    # After running: npm install to reinstall everything

1. Connect Claude Code: Link your Claude Code CLI to enable AI assistance
2. Describe Your Project: Use natural language to describe what you want to build
3. AI Generation: Watch as the AI generates your project structure and code
4. Live Preview: See changes instantly with hot reload functionality
5. Deploy: Push to production with Vercel integration

Claudable uses SQLite for local development. The database automatically initializes on first run.

The application automatically finds available ports. Check the .env file to see which ports were assigned.

# Clean all dependencies and retry
npm run clean
npm install

If you encounter the error: Error output dangerously skip permissions cannot be used which is root sudo privileges for security reasons

Solution:

1. Do not run Claude Code with sudo or as root user
2. Ensure proper file ownership in WSL:

   # Check current user
   whoami
   
   # Change ownership of project directory to current user
   sudo chown -R $(whoami):$(whoami) ~/Claudable

3. If using WSL, make sure you're running Claude Code from your user account, not root
4. Verify Claude Code installation permissions:

   # Reinstall Claude Code without sudo
   npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code --unsafe-perm=false
