FAQs

What are the system requirements for Caudex?

Caudex is available for macOS 12.0+, Windows 10+, and Ubuntu 20.04+ (Linux). It requires the Claude Code CLI to be installed and available in your system's PATH for full functionality. Ensure your operating system meets these minimum specifications.

How does Caudex handle remote access and security?

Caudex offers remote access via a WebSocket server, allowing connection from any device. It binds to 127.0.0.1 and requires token-based authentication for each connection. For external access, a tunnel service like ngrok is needed. Only one remote connection is allowed at a time, and ngrok provides HTTPS/WSS encryption.

Does Caudex modify my existing Claude Code settings?

Yes, Caudex automatically modifies your ~/.claude/settings.json on first launch to enable full functionality, adding hooks and configuring the statusLine. It preserves your existing settings and creates a backup of your original settings file at ~/.claude/settings.json.caudex-backup before making any changes.
