User Guide

Complete walkthrough of Phoenix Agent, from first launch to advanced automation.

First Launch

phoenix

You'll see the Phoenix banner and a quick-start panel. The status line at the bottom shows your current provider and model.

Connecting a Provider

/connect

The interactive wizard will:

  1. Show all available providers (Popular, Local, Cloud categories)
  2. Ask for your API key (encrypted locally with AES-128)
  3. Verify the connection
  4. Fetch all available models
  5. Let you select your default model
Local models: Ollama and LM Studio don't require an API key. Just make sure the server is running on localhost.

Chatting with AI

Just type naturally. The AI knows it's an agent with system access and will execute actions directly:

ouvre le navigateur
crée un fichier python qui affiche hello world
liste les fichiers de mon bureau
installe git
ferme toutes les fenêtres chrome

Action Authorization & Yolo Mode

/yolo on

By default, every shell, mouse, or keyboard action asks for your confirmation before running. With yolo ON: commands execute automatically. With yolo OFF (default): you approve each action.

All actions are logged regardless. Disable anytime with /yolo off.

Mouse & Keyboard Control

The AI can control your mouse and keyboard natively:

clique au centre de l'écran
déplace la souris vers le coin en haut à droite
scrolle vers le bas
tape "hello world" dans le bloc-notes
fais ctrl+c pour copier
