Alex Code

Alex Code is a standalone AI service for managing any server via SSH, SFTP, or FTP. Unlike Alex (which is available in the customer panel), you can use Alex Code anywhere — in the terminal, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, or VS Code.

Overview

Difference Between Alex and Alex Code

How Alex Code Works

Alex Code connects to your server using SSH/SFTP/FTP and allows you to:

• Execute commands — software installation, configuration, management
• Manage files — edit configurations, upload, download
• Diagnose problems — logs, system info, debugging
• Automate tasks — batch operations, scripts

Supported Protocols

Getting Started with Alex Code

Step 1 — Get an API Key

1. Log in to the customer panel at coresynth.io 
2. Go to account settings
3. Generate a new API key
4. Save it — it will be shown only once

Step 2 — Set Up Connection

Your client (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) needs:

# Configuration example
ALEX_CODE_API_KEY=your-api-key-here
ALEX_CODE_ENDPOINT=https://api.coresynth.io/v1

Step 3 — Connect to Server

# Example connection via Alex Code CLI
alex-code connect --host your-server-ip --user root --protocol ssh

Usage in IDE

Claude Code

# Set API key
export ALEX_CODE_API_KEY="your-key-here"
 
# Start Claude Code with Alex Code
claude-code

Cursor

1. Open Settings
2. Search for “Alex Code” or “External AI”
3. Enter API endpoint and key
4. Activate Alex Code as provider

VS Code

Use the “Alex Code” extension from marketplace or configure VS Code settings:

{
  "alexCode.apiKey": "your-api-key",
  "alexCode.endpoint": "https://api.coresynth.io/v1"
}
