Linux

  1. Make the AppImage executable: chmod +x Reqline-*.AppImage

First launch

When you first open Reqline, you’ll see:

  • A clean workspace with a single request tab
  • The sidebar on the left for collections and history
  • A seeded Local API Docs collection with example requests for the built-in local API

The app stores data at ~/.config/reqline/reqline-data.json (or the platform-equivalent user data directory). No account or signup is required.

What starts automatically

When the desktop app launches, two local servers start in the background:

  • Local API Server at http://127.0.0.1:3217 — CRUD endpoints for collections, requests, and environments
  • MCP Server at http://127.0.0.1:3218/mcp — MCP over Streamable HTTP for AI agent integration

Both ports are configurable via environment variables. See Local API Server and MCP Server for details.
