Float a mascot on your MacTHE LITTLE DETAILS
A few questions.
we were hoping you’d ask.
Does the CLI show a mascot on my screen?
No. The CLI and SDK make and manage your mascots. Masko for Mac shows them floating above your apps.
Float a mascot on your MacWhich platforms are supported?
The CLI needs macOS 14 or later on Apple Silicon. The TypeScript SDK needs Node.js 20 or later and the CLI. On Intel Macs, Windows or Linux, use the REST API or the MCP server.
Do I need an API key?
No. masko login signs in with your browser. Scripts on a server can use MASKO_API_KEY instead.
Can my coding agent use it?
Yes, from the terminal. Claude Code, Codex and Cursor can also connect to the Masko MCP server, which needs no install.
Connect your agentWhat does it cost?
The CLI is free. Generation uses credits like the rest of Masko: an image is 1 credit and a Standard animation 2 credits a second.
