Use AI agents

Pre-authenticate Claude or Codex inside your Pads.

Pad can install and authenticate AI coding agents inside every Pad you launch. Claude and Codex are supported today.

Connect an agent

Run the connect command for each agent you want to use:

pad connect claude
pad connect codex

This stores a token scoped to your user or your organization. The first run walks you through granting access in the provider's browser.

Connect GitHub

Clone private GitHub repos into your Pads.

Manage secrets

Store API keys once, reference them from every Pad.
