Install on Linux

One command installs Moneypenny on a Linux desktop or server. It runs as a systemd user service, and you use it from the app in any browser.

What you need

Linux on x86-64 with glibc 2.39 or newer and a systemd user session.
git, and at least one coding agent signed in with its subscription: Claude Code with a Claude plan, Codex with a ChatGPT plan, or OpenCode with an OpenCode Go plan.

Install and pair

curl -fsS https://app.moneypennyagent.com/install.sh -o /tmp/moneypenny-install.sh
bash /tmp/moneypenny-install.sh

The installer checks the download, installs into your home folder and prints a pairing link and code that last ten minutes.
Open the link at app.moneypennyagent.com, sign in, and confirm the machine name and code.
Back in the installer, confirm that the account it names is yours. Whoever approves a code first owns the machine, so a code approved by someone else is refused here.

On a server with no one at the keyboard, set MONEYPENNY_PAIR_EMAIL to your account's email before running the installer.

The installer imports your existing agent skills without overwriting any, and enables the service at ~/.config/systemd/user/moneypenny.service.

Sign your agents in

Run claude auth login and codex login as needed. ~/.local/bin/moneypenny doctor lists which agents and tools it finds. Missing ones are reported, never installed or signed in for you.

Keep it running after you log out

A systemd user service stops when you log out unless lingering is on. Run loginctl enable-linger to keep it running. This may need administrator access.

Check, disconnect or reinstall

moneypenny check tests the connection from the Moneypenny service to your machine and back.
moneypenny sync-skills imports skills you add later.
Disconnecting a machine in the app revokes its access without deleting any files on it. To connect it again, run moneypenny unpair, disconnect the old machine in the app, then run moneypenny setup.
