Everything you need to know about the Claudio CLI: features, commands, and workflows.
Overview
Claudio CLI is a plug-and-play AI development platform that runs on top of your existing Claude Code subscription. Install it once, log in, and you have a local orchestrator that can plan, build, review, QA, and ship real GitHub PRs, plus a set of focused tools for the rest of your workflow.
No Anthropic API key to manage, no per-token bill. Claudio uses your Claude Code subscription to run agents on your machine, and charges a flat subscription that costs a fraction of API-billed tools.
🧪 Open Beta: Claudio is in active open beta. Expect frequent updates and fast iteration on feedback. We ship improvements daily.
Requirements
Before installing Claudio CLI, make sure the following are in place:
Node.js 18 or higher
Claude Code installed globally
A Claude subscription (Pro, Max, or Team)
GitHub CLI (gh) installed and authenticated
Installation
Install the Claudio CLI globally using your preferred package manager. Node.js 18 or higher is required.
After installation, start the CLI:
The CLI walks you through GitHub and Claude Code authentication on first run. You never paste an API key manually.

GitHub Issues
Describe a task and Claudio runs a complete, observable development pipeline against your GitHub repo. Every stage is a specialized agent that emits structured progress into a live TUI. The output is a merged PR, not a chat transcript.
PM: writes the spec as a GitHub issue
Designer: drafts UI mockups before any code is written (UI features only)
Design Reviewer: validates mockups against the design system and signs off on the spec
Dev: implements the feature on a branch and opens a PR
Reviewer: reads every diff line and auto-fixes issues
QA Frontend: boots your dev server and validates in a real browser, including visual checks against the spec
QA Backend: exercises endpoints, CLI commands, and exports against the spec
Fix QA: applies minimum-viable fixes to QA findings and re-verifies in the same scenario
Regression: runs end-to-end Playwright tests on the open PR to catch broken neighboring features
Merge: ships the PR and deletes the feature branch
Two execution modes:
Work mode: runs a batch of tasks in parallel (1–5 concurrent), re-plans as slots free up, and auto-retries stuck tasks up to 3 times.
One Shot: single task, single focused archer. Fastest path from description to open PR.
