Woodentable for Linux

I. Unpack it

unzip woodentable-0.7.3-linux-x86_64.zip

Inside is one program, woodentable, already executable. No unzip? Install it with your package manager, for example sudo apt install unzip.

II. Put it on your PATH

mkdir -p ~/.local/bin
mv woodentable ~/.local/bin/

Most distributions already put ~/.local/bin on the PATH. If yours doesn't, add it in your shell profile.

III. Run it once, and accept the licence

woodentable

The first time, it shows a short notice and asks you to accept the licence agreement: type a and press Enter, or v to read it first. You're then at its console; type exit to leave.

Your agent starts Woodentable without a terminal, where it can't ask, so this has to be done once first. To see which version you have, run woodentable version.

IV. Connect it to your agent

Add Woodentable as an MCP server. For Claude Code:

claude mcp add woodentable -- woodentable serve -name woodentable

In another client's MCP settings, the command is woodentable and its arguments are serve -name woodentable.

Optional. Run local models on your GPU

Woodentable runs models on the CPU out of the box. For an NVIDIA, AMD or Intel graphics card, add the Vulkan backend:

woodentable pkg install vulkan

To check your download against the published SHA-256, fetch SHA256SUMS next to it and run:

sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing
