- Which guide should I start with?
- How CodeZero works, then Install and connect. Everything after those two assumes CodeZero is installed, signed in and has your repositories added and indexed.
- Does CodeZero include Claude Code?
- No. CodeZero works with the Claude Code installation already configured on your machine.
- Does CodeZero use my Claude subscription or API credentials?
- Yes. Claude Code continues to use whichever credentials you have configured for it. CodeZero does not replace or modify those credentials.
- Can I use CodeZero without Claude Code?
- You can use CodeZero's repository and Git-oriented views — Code Graph, Git Tree, repository browsing and the feature view. Agent workflows and AI-assisted feature naming require a compatible Claude Code installation.
- Where does indexing happen?
- On your machine. CodeZero indexes the main branch of each repository you add and sends only structural data, such as symbols, imports and dependencies, to Frigga's server, which builds the graph. Your source code stays on your machine, and the agent reads your working tree directly, including uncommitted changes.
- Can CodeZero see repositories I have not added?
- No. CodeZero works with the repositories you add from inside the extension with the + button. Add every repository a change might reach.
- Which Git hosts does CodeZero work with?
- Any. CodeZero works with the repositories on your machine, whether they are hosted on GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket or your own server. Git Tree pushes and pulls through your local Git with the credentials you already use.
- What is the difference between Auto, Planned, Normal and Coffee Mode?
- Auto plans when a change is large or ambiguous and proceeds directly when it is not. Planned always plans first and blocks writes until you approve. Normal creates no plan and asks you to confirm each edit. Coffee Mode continues through an already-approved plan without step-by-step confirmations, while still refusing to commit, push, switch branches or run destructive operations.
- What is the difference between Code Graph and Feature Mapping?
- Code Graph shows how the wider system is connected. Feature Mapping shows how one functional area maps back to the code and dependencies that implement it.
- Do I need to finish a track before moving on?
- No. The tracks follow the workflow — understand, plan, build — but they are not gated. If CodeZero is already set up, start at Explore the Code Graph.
