Quick Start

Get your first agent reporting to Feed in under 5 minutes.

1. Create an account

Go to tryfeed.dev and click Start free. Sign up with GitHub, GitLab, Google, or email.

Feed creates a personal workspace for you automatically on first sign-in.

2. Copy the setup prompt

From your dashboard, click Copy LLM Prompt. This generates a workspace-scoped API key and copies a prompt to your clipboard.

The prompt contains:

  • Your Feed API URL and app URL
  • Your workspace ID and a fresh API key
  • Step-by-step instructions for the agent to install hooks and register itself

The prompt does not contain deployment secrets, database credentials, or admin keys.

3. Paste into a coding agent

Open Claude Code (or another supported agent) inside any repo and paste the prompt. The agent will:

  1. Save FEED_API_URL, FEED_API_KEY, and FEED_WORKSPACE_ID to .env
  2. Install the Feed hooks (bundled with the skill)
  3. Register itself with your Feed workspace
  4. Start sending events

4. Watch the feed

Return to your dashboard. Within seconds you'll see:

  • The agent appear in the Active agents panel
  • A session_start event in the feed with the repo path and branch
  • Heartbeat events as the agent works
  • A stop event when the session ends
