Getting Started

Get Dynamo running in your game project in under a minute.

Install

bash
# Clone and build
git clone https://github.com/TeamWorldForge/dynamo.git
cd dynamo
npm install
npm run build
npm link

Set Up a Provider

Run the setup wizard to configure your first provider:

bash
dynamo setup

The wizard walks you through picking a provider, entering API keys, and selecting a default model. Or set a key manually:

bash
# Anthropic (recommended)
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."

# OpenAI
export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..."

# Or use Ollama for local models (no API key needed)
ollama pull llama4

Launch

bash
# Navigate to your game project
cd ~/Projects/MyGame

# Start Dynamo
dynamo

You'll see the animated logo and a prompt. Start typing — Dynamo streams responses in real time with syntax highlighting.

Permissive Mode

Skip tool approval prompts with the -y flag:

bash
dynamo -y

Resume a Session

bash
# Pick from recent sessions
dynamo -r

# Resume a specific session
dynamo -r <session-id>
