How to Set Up and Use Apra Fleet
Apra Fleet is a multi-agent AI coding platform that lets you deploy a coordinated fleet of AI agents — developers, reviewers, and project managers — across local and remote machines using Claude Code as the underlying agent runtime. Agents communicate via SSH, sync state through Git commits, and are orchestrated by a PM skill that handles sprint planning, task assignment, code review automation, and deployment. Teams use it to parallelize complex coding projects across multiple machines without needing a central dashboard or cloud infrastructure.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 22 or later installed on all machines in the fleet
- Claude Code installed and authenticated on each machine
- Git installed and SSH access configured between machines (for multi-machine fleets)
- npm package manager (for global installation)
Install Apra Fleet globally
Install the Apra Fleet CLI globally with npm. Node.js 22 or later is required.
npm install -g @apralabs/apra-fleetInstall and register the Claude Code integration
Run the install command to register Apra Fleet as an MCP server with Claude Code and set up the PM skill.
apra-fleet installInitialize a fleet project
Inside your project directory, initialize the fleet configuration. This creates the project structure and registers available agents.
cd your-project
/pm init project_nameAdd fleet members (local or remote)
Register agent roles for your fleet. Local members run on the same machine; remote members are reached via SSH.
/pm add 2 local members -- a developer and a reviewerPlan and start a sprint
Provide a feature specification file and start the sprint. The PM agent delegates tasks to developer and reviewer agents.
/pm plan ./feature.md
/pm start the implementation sprintMonitor and finalize
Check sprint status, review generated code, and deploy when satisfied.
/pm status
/pm deployApra Fleet Examples

Example PM skill commands and prompts for coordinating an AI coding fleet.
- "/pm add 2 local members -- a developer and a code reviewer"
- "/pm init my-saas-app"
- "/pm plan ./specs/auth-feature.md"
- "/pm start the authentication module sprint"
- "/pm status"
- "/pm deploy"
- "Ask the reviewer agent to check the latest commit for security issues."Troubleshooting Apra Fleet
apra-fleet install fails with Node.js version error
Apra Fleet requires Node.js 22 or later. Run 'node --version' to check. Use nvm or fnm to install and switch to Node.js 22: 'nvm install 22 && nvm use 22'.
Remote agents cannot be reached via SSH
Ensure SSH key-based authentication is configured between the controller machine and remote machines. Test with 'ssh user@remote-host' before adding a remote fleet member. The remote machine must also have Node.js 22 and Claude Code installed.
/pm commands are not recognized in Claude Code
Run 'apra-fleet install' again to ensure the PM skill is properly registered. Restart Claude Code after installation. If the issue persists, check that @apralabs/apra-fleet is installed globally with 'npm list -g @apralabs/apra-fleet'.
