Overview
What Luxe is, and where to find what you need.
Luxe is a coding agent for your terminal. It works in your project with the model you choose, then walks you through what it changed so you can review it and open a pull request without leaving the terminal.
New to Luxe? Install it, then follow the Quickstart. The rest of the guide is reference, for when you need it.

Help
- Help (
/help) lists every key for the screen you are on, with any you have rebound. luxe doctorchecks which language servers, debuggers and tools Luxe can use on your machine.- Troubleshooting covers common problems and how to report a bug.
- Problems and questions: GitHub issues.
Ask Luxe
This guide is built into Luxe, for the version you have installed. Ask the agent how to do something in Luxe, such as how do I add an MCP server?, and it reads the answer from the guide rather than guessing. You can read it yourself too:
luxe docs # every page
luxe docs hooks # one page
luxe docs --search "on_ask"
For agents
Every page is also plain markdown, at the same address with .md on the end:
https://luxe.dev/docs/install.md. llms.txt lists every page with a
one-line summary, and llms-full.txt is the whole guide in one
file. Inside Luxe, luxe docs serves the same pages offline.
