Frequently Asked Questions

What platforms does Critiq support?

Critiq runs natively on macOS, Windows, and Linux. All features work identically across platforms.

How does LSP integration work?

Critiq uses a Neovim-style config where you map file extensions to LSP binary paths. If an LSP server exists for your language, Critiq can use it. Common languages (TypeScript, Python, Rust, Go, etc.) work out of the box.

What Git providers are supported for OAuth?

One-click sign-in for GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Azure DevOps. No manual token setup required—just click to authenticate.

How do commit profiles work?

Commit profiles let you maintain separate identities (name, email, GPG key) per Git provider. Critiq auto-selects the right profile based on your repo's remote URL, then falls back to local or global git config if no match is found.

Which AI models does Critiq support?

Critiq works with Claude (Anthropic), ChatGPT (OpenAI), Gemini (Google), and local models via LM Studio or custom HTTP endpoints. You control which model to use and can switch anytime.

How do I get started with Critiq?

Download Critiq from our downloads page and purchase a $29 one-time license to unlock all features. The license includes all current features and all future desktop updates.

What's included in the $29 license?

Everything. All current features, all future desktop updates, no subscriptions. The license is for personal use on up to 2 devices at a time.

Does Critiq replace my existing Git client?

It can, but you don't have to. Many users run Critiq alongside their existing tools—using Critiq for review workflows and their terminal/IDE for quick commits. Critiq handles all standard Git operations if you want a full replacement.
