Oxygen is code-first — your project is a git repo, and git is the source of truth. The fastest way to build is locally with the oxy CLI and the Oxygen skill for Claude Code, then deploy by connecting your repo to Oxygen Cloud.
1

Install the Oxygen CLI

The install script downloads the right binary for your OS and drops it on your PATH:
Full details and first commands: Install the CLI →.
2

Install the Oxygen skill for Claude Code

The Oxygen skill teaches Claude Code how to scaffold Oxygen files — your semantic model, agents, automations, and data apps — correctly:

Build a working version locally

With the CLI and the skill in place, build your project: connect a data source, define your semantic model, compose your World Model, and add an agent. Preview it locally with oxy start --local until it answers questions the way you want.See Connect your data → and Your first project →.
4

Push to GitHub

Commit your project and push it to a GitHub repository. Because Oxygen is code-first, this repo is your project — Oxygen Cloud deploys from it.
5

Sign up and connect your repo

Go to app.oxygen-hq.com, sign up, and create a workspace. Connect the GitHub repo you just pushed and Oxygen imports your project.See GitHub integration →.
6

Re-add your secrets in the cloud

Secrets never live in git, so re-add them in the workspace after connecting:
  • LLM keyManage → Secrets. Paste your OpenAI or Anthropic key so the agents can run. (Secrets →)
  • Data connectionsManage → Workspace → Connections. Re-enter the warehouse credentials your project references and click Test. (Connect your data →)
The home page shows a green check next to “LLM key” once it’s set.
7

Ask your first question

Open the chat panel on the home page, pick your agent, and ask a question about your data — for example:
How many orders did we get last week?
Oxygen generates the SQL, runs it, and streams the answer back with the chart and the underlying query.
