Install Overview
Cloud Link ships as four downloads. Every file resolves to the latest GitHub release and includes pinned, integrity-verified OpenCode and cloudflared.
| Platform | File | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| macOS (Apple silicon + Intel) | opencode-cloudlink_darwin_universal.dmg |
Menu-bar app |
| Windows x64 | opencode-cloudlink_windows_amd64.exe |
System-tray app |
| Linux x64 | opencode-cloudlink_linux_amd64.tar.gz |
Headless server or CLI |
| Linux ARM64 | opencode-cloudlink_linux_arm64.tar.gz |
ARM64 servers and compatible Raspberry Pi systems |
The download page has the same files. Each release publishes a
matching .sha256 sidecar.
Requirements
Section titled “Requirements”| Platform | Minimum |
|---|---|
| macOS | macOS 15 or newer; Apple silicon or Intel |
| Windows | x64 Windows; WebView2 (provisioned by the installer) |
| Linux | glibc 2.39 or newer (for example Ubuntu 24.04 or Debian 13); x64 or ARM64 |
armv7 is not supported. Windows ARM64 has no installer. Linux GUI installers
and DEB/RPM packages are not part of the current distribution.
OpenCode and cloudflared are bundled. You do not need Go, Rust, Node, a Cloudflare account, port forwarding, or a manually created tunnel.
An active Cloud Link subscription is required. Buy or restore it inside OpenCode Mobile before pairing. See Subscription and billing.
Verify the download
Section titled “Verify the download”Each release asset has a .sha256 sidecar. Compare it before running or
extracting the file.
macOS or Linux

Choose your platform
Section titled “Choose your platform”- macOS — open the DMG and drag the app into Applications.
- Windows — run the NSIS installer. It is currently unsigned, so SmartScreen may warn.
- Linux and headless — extract the archive, run the connector in the foreground, or install the optional systemd user service.
Updates and removal
Section titled “Updates and removal”Cloud Link does not install an automatic updater. To update, download the current release and install it over the existing version. Pairing identity, settings, and exposed services are stored outside the application bundle and survive a normal reinstall.
To uninstall, stop the connector or quit the tray app, then remove the application or extracted archive. Saved configuration and credentials are retained for a future reinstall; remove them explicitly if you want a clean state. Deleting the machine through the mobile app retires its tunnel and DNS record. Per-device revocation is not implemented.
See Releases and updates for version checks and state locations.
Before you pair
Section titled “Before you pair”You need the Cloud Link subscription active and OpenCode Mobile open on the Cloud Link screen. Keep the machine’s QR code visible and be ready to approve the device on the machine. Continue with Pair with OpenCode Mobile.
