New Team Member Quickstart
This guide is for people joining an existing team via an invite link.
Setting up SageOx for your team from scratch? See the Team Setup Quickstart instead.
Step 1: Accept the invite
Click the invite link your teammate shared. This takes you to SageOx where you can create an account (or sign in) and join the team.
Step 2: Choose how you want to start
The same team can use SageOx in different ways. Pick the mode that matches what you are doing first:
| If you are mostly | Start here |
|---|---|
| Code-mode | Install ox, then connect each repo you work in |
| Assistant-mode | Connect SageOx over MCP |
| Capture-mode | Start with Console Recorder or Video import |
Step 3: If you are building in code, install the CLI
Step 4: If you are building in code, authenticate
This opens your browser to confirm. Your session persists across terminal restarts.
Step 5: If you are building in code, connect your repositories
In each git repo you work on:
This links the repo to your team. Repeat for each repo you work on.
Step 6: Start using SageOx
If you connected a repo, launch your AI coding tool as usual:
The agent automatically runs ox agent prime on startup, injecting your team's shared context — conventions, architectural decisions, and domain knowledge.
If you started with MCP instead, connect your assistant through the MCP overview and ask it to search SageOx or read team knowledge.
If you started with capture, record a discussion or import a walkthrough and let SageOx distill it into Team Context for the rest of the team.
If the repo-connected setup seems off, run ox doctor to diagnose authentication, repo connection, and team membership.
