Setup

[view as markdown]
  • macOS (Apple Silicon or Intel)
  • fp CLI installed and initialized in at least one project

Download the latest version from fp.dev.

  1. Open the app — it appears in both the Dock and the menu bar
  2. The app automatically detects fp projects in your home directory
  3. Select a project to view its issues

The menu bar icon provides quick access:

  • Click the menu bar icon (or use the global hotkey) to open the launcher
  • Type to search issues
  • Press Enter to open an issue in the main window

Configure a global hotkey in Settings to instantly access fp from anywhere on your desktop.

The Mac app follows one of three theme preferences:

ThemeBehavior
LightAlways use the light interface
DarkAlways use the dark interface
SystemFollow your macOS appearance setting

Switch themes from Settings.

Claude Code agents work through the CLI. The desktop app detects local fp database changes from CLI writes, so changes made by fp commands in the terminal appear in the UI.
