Getting started

Everything you need to install and use NovaPrime.

1 · Install

First make sure Node.js (v18+) is installed. Then install NovaPrime globally:

npm install -g novaprime

Verify it worked:

novaprime --version

2 · First setup

Copy your novaprime-key from your dashboard (the "My Key" section). Then log in once:

novaprime login

Paste your key when asked. It's saved on your computer, so you only do this once.

3 · Using NovaPrime

Start an interactive session inside any project folder:

novaprime

Or run a single task:

novaprime "add input validation to signup.js"
  • NovaPrime can read, write and edit files and run commands — it always asks permission first.
  • In a session: /help, /clear, /exit.

4 · How limits work

Your plan gives you a pool of tokens in two rolling windows:

5-hour window

A short-term cap that refills as time passes.

Weekly

A 7-day cap across all your usage.

Tokens are consumed based on real usage (input + output). Lightweight tasks run on a free model and use fewer tokens; heavier tasks use more. See exactly how much you've used on your dashboard.

5 · Changing plans

From your dashboard → Plan & Billing you can upgrade, downgrade or renew instantly. Upgrades give bigger limits right away; renew starts a fresh period.

6 · Troubleshooting

"Invalid novaprime-key"

Run novaprime login again and paste the key exactly from your dashboard.

"You've reached your plan's limit"

Wait for the window to reset (shown on your dashboard) or upgrade your plan.

"Your plan has expired"

Open your dashboard → Plan & Billing and click Renew.

"command not found: novaprime"

Re-run npm install -g novaprime and make sure Node.js is installed.
