  1. Extract the ZIP. Open NetCodex.app to run without installing.
  2. To install permanently, open Instalar NetCodex.command: it copies the app to your user Applications folder.
  3. Try transferring a synthetic chat. Diagnosticar NetCodex.command creates a local report without your conversations.

Choose how to install

All options install the same NetCodex. Pick the one that fits how you work.

Desktop app

Easiest

Windows and Linux installers with Python included.

  1. Download the installer above.

  2. Open the .exe and follow the steps. It installs for your user, no administrator rights.

  3. If Windows SmartScreen appears, choose More info, then Run anyway.

  4. Open NetCodex from the Start menu. Your AI tools are detected right away.

pipx

Installs NetCodex in its own environment. Requires Python 3.12 or newer.

  1. Install pipx if you do not have it.

    py -m pip install --user pipx
    py -m pipx ensurepath
  2. Install NetCodex with the desktop window.

    pipx install "netcodex-agent-exporter[desktop]"
  3. Open it.

    netcodex desktop

uv

The fast Python tool installer from Astral. Same result as pipx.

  1. Install uv if you do not have it.

    powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"
  2. Install NetCodex as a tool.

    uv tool install "netcodex-agent-exporter[desktop]"
  3. Open it.

    netcodex desktop

Command line

No window at all: list sources, export everything and keep a folder in sync.

  1. Install the command line only.

    pipx install netcodex-agent-exporter
  2. See what NetCodex finds.

    See detected tools

    netcodex sources
  3. Export everything to a folder.

    Export everything

    netcodex export --all --out exports
  4. Or keep exporting new chats every minute.

    Keep exporting

    netcodex watch --out exports --interval 60
Linux x86_64

How to install NetCodex on Linux

Linux x86_64 (64-bit Intel/AMD), glibc 2.35 or later and a graphical session with its usual desktop libraries. FUSE is not required. ARM64 and Alpine/musl are not supported.

Export Markdown, Quarkdown and PDF from Document templates. PDF uses the included engine; no external browser or Quarkdown compiler is required.

Run as a regular user, without sudo. QtWebEngine needs user namespaces for its sandbox.

  1. 1. Verify the downloaded file

    sha256sum NetCodex-Setup-0.9.1-linux-x86_64.run

    The result must match this SHA-256:

    SHA-256 of NetCodex-Setup-0.9.1-linux-x86_64.runda4f82d2fdd947c342bab7c22a248abfa01c50b6bedd34bf7a152c20b8110191
  2. 2. Open the installer

    Run these commands in your download folder. You can also enable “Allow executing file as program” in the file properties and open it.

    chmod +x NetCodex-Setup-0.9.1-linux-x86_64.run
    ./NetCodex-Setup-0.9.1-linux-x86_64.run
  3. 3. Click Install and open NetCodex

    The wizard adds it to the applications menu and can create a desktop shortcut. You can delete the installer afterwards: NetCodex stays in ~/.local/opt/netcodex.

    To uninstall, use the “Desinstalar NetCodex” action in the applications menu or run:

    ~/.local/opt/netcodex/NetCodex.AppImage --appimage-extract-and-run --netcodex-uninstall

If Windows says it protected your PC

The installer is not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen shows a warning the first time. It is a precaution for new downloads, not a virus alert.

  1. Windows shows a blue window

    It says Windows protected your PC. Only a Don't run button is visible.

  2. Choose More info

    The link under the message reveals the app name and a second button.

  3. Choose Run anyway

    The installer starts. Windows remembers your choice for this file.

The installer is not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen shows a warning the first time. It is a precaution for new downloads, not a virus alert.

Check the file before you run it

Compare the SHA-256 checksum of the downloaded file with the one shown on this page. If they match, the file is exactly the one we published.

In PowerShell, from your Downloads folder:

Installation questions

What do I need?

For the installers: 64-bit Windows 10/11 or Linux x86_64 with glibc 2.35 or later and a graphical session. For pipx or uv: Python 3.12 or newer on Windows, macOS or Linux.

Does it need administrator rights?

No. Windows and Linux installers install for your user only. pipx and uv also install into your user folder.

How do I update?

Download the new installer and run it over the old one, or run pipx upgrade netcodex-agent-exporter (uv tool upgrade netcodex-agent-exporter with uv).

How do I uninstall?

On Windows use Settings, Apps, NetCodex, Uninstall. On Linux use the “Desinstalar NetCodex” applications menu action. With pipx run pipx uninstall netcodex-agent-exporter; with uv, uv tool uninstall netcodex-agent-exporter. Your exported files stay where they are.

Where do my exports go?

To a folder you choose in the app (by default NetCodex Exports in your Documents). The command line writes to the folder you pass with --out.
