Dex runs your process as a Flow of Steps and continues it from the last finished Step after a crash, a restart, or a long wait.

Run the Quick Start

Install dexcli and start Dex on your machine:

$$

brew install superdurable/tap/dexcli
dexcli dev

Then follow the Quick Start. It runs a Flow, stops its Worker in the middle, and shows Dex continue the Flow. Run Locally shows how to install dexcli without Homebrew.

Common tasks

• Add Dex to existing code: turn a function, job, or queue consumer you already have into a Flow.
• Build a durable agent: run an agent in your framework so its tool calls and approvals survive a restart.
• Let a coding agent write it: install the Dex Skills so your coding agent writes correct Dex code.
• Evaluate Dex: how Dex compares with what you run today, its limits, and its measured numbers.

Dex Server runs in Dex Cloud or on your own infrastructure. Choose How to Run Dex compares the two.
