Register & Sign In
LingXizhi uses email accounts, with registration, sign-in and password recovery through the IDE or website. The Rust kernel manages IDE sessions. Available models and features depend on subscription permissions, runtime prerequisites and service deployment; signing in does not activate every cloud capability.
Register an Account
On first launch of LingXizhi IDE, click "Sign up" on the login page and follow these steps:
Enter your email and get a verification code: enter a frequently used email address and click "Send code". You will receive an email containing a 6-digit code. Sending is rate-limited — if you see "Sending too frequently", wait a moment and retry.
Enter your username: manually enter a username (2–50 characters). The username appears in your profile on the settings page.
Set a password: at least 8 characters; a mix of upper/lowercase letters, digits, and symbols is recommended.
Submit: enter the verification code and click "Register". The IDE attempts automatic sign-in after registration and opens the main window. Registration and sign-in are separate requests; return to the login page to retry if the subsequent sign-in fails.
Sign In
The primary sign-in method is email + password:
- On the login page, enter your registered email and password, then click "Log in".
- The kernel saves the token and attempts renewal. Expired tokens, revoked device authorization or unavailable services may require signing in again.
- When MFA is enabled and supported by the server, enter an authenticator or recovery code after password verification.
Captcha and rate limits: the website may request a click-captcha according to page state and service responses. Follow its prompts. The current IDE login page supports MFA but does not provide the same click-captcha flow. Wait before retrying a 429 response; do not assume a fixed failure count triggers or clears a limit.
Reset Your Password
If you forget your password, you can reset it yourself by email — no need to contact support:
- Click "Forgot password?" on the login page.
- Enter your registered email and click "Send code" to receive a 6-digit code.
- Enter the code and your new password (at least 8 characters), then click "Reset password".
- After a successful reset, return to the login page and sign in with the new password.
Account security notes
- The local kernel manages login tokens. Login forms process the password you enter; this does not imply all credentials stay local or that the UI never handles plaintext. Protect accounts, devices and the global data directory.
- Clicking "Log out" on the settings page also clears the local session. Always log out after using a shared computer.
- Verification emails come from the official service domain and never ask for your password. Any message from a self-claimed "support agent" requesting your password or verification code is a scam.
Next Steps
After signing in, we recommend completing the first-time setup: choose a default model, confirm your subscription quota, and learn how the kernel port works.
