Install Git
Git is a free tool your harness uses behind the scenes to keep track of your files. You won't interact with it directly, but it has to be installed. On Windows especially, your agent won't run a local session without it.
On Windows, do this before you open the pack. Claude Code's local sessions are blocked until Git is installed. We've watched setups stall right here, so we pulled it out as its own step.
First, check if you already have it
Many computers already have Git. Open a terminal (on Mac: Terminal; on Windows: Command Prompt or PowerShell) and run:
git --versionIf you see a version number, you're done. Skip to the next step. If you see "command not found" or nothing useful, install it below.
Install it for your computer
Mac
Most Macs already have Git. If the check above came up empty, run this and follow the prompt:
xcode-select --installWindows
Download Git for Windows and run the installer. The default options are fine, just keep clicking next. When it's done, close and reopen your harness so it sees Git.
Linux
Install it with your package manager. On Debian or Ubuntu:
sudo apt install git
Run git --version once more to confirm it worked. A version number means you're set.
Stuck or need help?
Send a message and it comes straight to me. Tell me where you got stuck and I'll write back.
Rather have it done for you?
If following the steps yourself isn't how your brain works today, that's fine. On a Zoom call you share your screen and hand me control, and I set it up for you, right there on your own computer. You watch it come together and end the call with a working setup, nothing left on your plate.
Pick a time below. No pitch, no pressure, no homework beforehand.
