Rafiq
Download Rafiq for Windows
One installer, no account. After installing, add a model key on the Models page and start.
Installing
Run the installer
It installs for the current user without administrator rights, in Arabic, English or Russian, and adds a shortcut to the Start menu and the desktop.
Add a model
On the Models page: pick the provider, paste the key or sign in with GitHub, and choose the model from the list. Rafiq sends a test message to make sure it works.
Start
A chat, a task on a folder, or a design. Upgrading to a newer version keeps your models, chats, tasks and accounts.
The SmartScreen warning
The installer isn't signed with a code-signing certificate yet, so Windows may stop it the first time. Click More info, then Run anyway. To make sure the file is the one we published, compare its hash with the SHA256SUMS.txt attached to the release:
Get-FileHash .\Rafiq_<version>_x64-setup.exe -Algorithm SHA256Updates
From the About page in the app: check, download, and restart into the new version. Every update is signed, and the app verifies the signature before installing it.
You can also download any release by hand from the releases page on GitHub and install it over the current one.
Where your data lives
| The app | %LOCALAPPDATA%\رفيق |
| Database and logs | %APPDATA%\Rafiq |
| Keys and tokens | Windows Credential Manager |
| Files of tasks without a folder, and designs | %APPDATA%\Rafiq\workspace |
Uninstalling from Apps & features removes the app and leaves your data in place, so a later install brings it back as it was.
