# Using tasksmind Outside Slack

> Run tasksmind from your own terminal with the tasksmind CLI, or run a local agent that claims fix handoffs from the queue and works against your own machine.

Slack is the default surface, not the only one. A CLI and a local agent for when you'd rather stay
in your terminal.

## The CLI

The `tasksmind` npm package gives you the same run/status/incidents primitives from your own
terminal or scripts:

```bash theme={null}
tasksmind run "checkout fails on Safari" --repo your-org/your-repo
tasksmind status <run-id>
tasksmind watch <project-id>
```

| Command               | What it does                       |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| `tasksmind init`      | Set up the CLI for a project       |
| `tasksmind run`       | Start a fix run against a repo     |
| `tasksmind status`    | Check the status of a run          |
| `tasksmind logs`      | Stream logs for a run              |
| `tasksmind incidents` | List and inspect incidents         |
| `tasksmind replay`    | Re-run a past incident             |
| `tasksmind watch`     | Watch a project for new activity   |
| `tasksmind serve`     | Run the local agent daemon         |
| `tasksmind handoffs`  | Manage local-agent handoffs        |
| `tasksmind fixes`     | List and inspect generated fixes   |
| `tasksmind health`    | Check connectivity to your account |
| `tasksmind update`    | Update the CLI itself              |

## The local agent

`tasksmind serve` runs a daemon on your own machine that claims fix "handoffs" from the cloud
queue and works the fix locally instead of in a remote sandbox, useful when a fix needs something
only your machine has access to.

```bash theme={null}
tasksmind serve
```

<Warning>
  There's no MCP server yet. If your workflow depends on Claude Code, Cursor, or another MCP
  client talking to tasksmind directly, the CLI and local-agent daemon are the current way in,
  not an MCP endpoint.
