Finch on an Ample app.

Finch works on Ample apps with no extra setup: /finch-install finds the right place for it.

Install

Paste this into Claude Code, then run /finch-install in a new session in your project:

Claude Code
Add the Claude Code plugin finch@finch from the GitHub marketplace usefinch/notes (put it in my Claude Code settings if /plugin isn’t available here), then tell me how to load it and run /finch-install on this site.

Full steps are on the install page.

How Finch knows it’s Ample
It looks for ample.toml at the root of the project.
Where the script goes
Wherever the app’s framework takes it (see the other framework pages). That’s the only change to your site’s code.

Good to know

  • /finch-install runs ample up for you at the end and saves the live address, so you can start editing straight away.
  • /finch-apply runs ample up after merging, so applied changes go live with no extra step.
  • No GitHub or other git remote is needed: Finch sets up git in the folder if it isn’t already.
