Requirements

A Mac, your own account for each provider, and the CLIs you plan to use.

The Mac app needs a Mac running macOS. Apple silicon is recommended, and the minimum macOS version is still being confirmed.

Miko's compatible Codex runtimes: 0.154.0 for sign-in and Astra, 0.159.3 for other models.

You use your own accounts. Miko never sells model usage, and the Mac app needs no API keys, except for the optional DeepSeek research assistant.

The CLIs are installed alongside Miko, not bundled with it.
