## Step 1: Installation

* Download the latest desktop release for macOS, Windows, or Linux from [https://chatboxai.app](https://chatboxai.app).
* Install the application following your OS prompt, then launch Chatbox AI and sign in with your AGCloud credentials.
* (Optional) Open **Settings → General** to set the default download folder for transcripts and assets before you start chatting.

## Step 2: Add AGCloud Configuration

Some Claude models are not fully compatible with the OpenAI-format endpoints, which can cause slow or stalled responses. When connecting to Claude, switch to the dedicated `Anthropic` provider so the correct API schema is used.

**2.1 Configure OpenAI and Google Providers**

**Add Models**

**2.2 Configure Anthropic Provider**

* Repeat the first bullet from 2.1 to open **Settings → Providers** and choose `Anthropic`.
* Replace the **API Host** with `https://aiandgpu.com/v1` so requests are routed through AGCloud.

## Step 3: Start Chat

* Choose a model from the top selector or the command palette shortcut `⌘/Ctrl + K`.
* Drag documents or images into the message box to enable context-aware answers.
* Use the sidebar history to pin important conversations so they sync across devices.

## Step 4: Manage Data

* Export transcripts via the **⋯** menu in each conversation; choose JSON or Markdown for downstream tools.
* Toggle **Local Cache Only** in **Settings → Privacy** if you need to keep all assets on-device.
* Set up scheduled backups by linking a folder to cloud storage (iCloud, OneDrive, etc.) so your prompts and attachments remain safe.
