Rumus is usable without an account — local terminal, profiles, and bring-your-own-key AI all work signed out. Signing in unlocks the rest:
  • Built-in AI models included with Pro.
  • Cloud sync for your settings — see Config sync.
  • Encrypted vault sync so your hosts and credentials follow you across devices — see Vault sync.
  • Invitation codes and other account features.

​
Sign in methods

Rumus supports two ways to sign in:
  • GitHub OAuth — one click, browser handoff, done.
  • Email + verification code — enter your email, get a code, paste it back.
Other OAuth providers (Google, Apple) aren’t supported today.

​
Sign in

1

Open the menu

Click the menu button at the far right of the title bar.
2

Click Sign In

The sign-in dialog opens.
3

Choose a method

  • Sign in with GitHub — opens a browser window. Authorize the Rumus app, then return to Rumus; the dialog closes automatically.
  • Sign in with email — type your email, click Send code, and check your inbox. Paste the code back into Rumus.

​
Sign up

The sign-up flow is the same as sign-in. The first time you sign in with a GitHub account or email that doesn’t yet have a Rumus account, one is created automatically. There’s no separate registration page.

​
After signing in

The menu button shows your name / avatar instead of Sign In. Click it for:
  • Account — go to the account page.
  • Sign out — log this device out.
You can also visit your dashboard at rumus.ai/dashboard for usage, billing, and account settings beyond what’s surfaced in the app.

​
Sign out

Click the menu button → Sign out. The current device’s session is terminated and your local user state is cleared. What happens to your local data:
  • Vault — stays on disk, encrypted, until you sign back in (or delete it manually).
  • Settings — stay local; the next sign-in pulls down what’s in the cloud and reconciles.
  • Conversation history — local; not affected by sign-out.
The “log out everywhere” capability exists on the server but isn’t exposed in the current client UI — sign-out today affects this device only.

​
Multiple devices

Sign in on as many devices as you like. They all share the same account.
  • Settings (appearance, AI, keyboard, rules / skills) sync via config sync.
  • Hosts and credentials sync via vault sync — encrypted end to end.
  • The current Rumus client doesn’t show a list of active devices or let you revoke a specific one. That capability is on the server side and will surface in the client when device-management UI ships.

​
Troubleshooting

Make sure your default browser is set correctly. Rumus listens for a deep-link callback — if your browser opens a different app, the callback won’t reach Rumus. Check Settings → Default Apps on your OS.
Check your spam folder. If it’s still missing, request a new code from the sign-in dialog. Codes are time-limited and one-time-use, so an old code won’t work.
Have a sign-in problem we didn’t cover? Ask in the Rumus community.

​
Privacy

  • The sign-in token is stored locally and used to authenticate API requests on your behalf.
  • GitHub OAuth grants Rumus the standard public profile + email scopes — nothing more.
  • Email-code sign-in stores your email and a session token. The verification code itself is one-time-use.

Next steps

Config sync

What gets synced (settings, AI prefs, rules / skills) and what doesn’t (profiles, models).

Vault & encryption

Set up the encrypted vault so your hosts and credentials can sync safely.
