Linux/macOS Installation

# Download the appropriate binary (replace with actual version and platform)
curl -LO https://git.wisehodl.dev/jay/aicli/releases/download/v1.0.0/aicli-linux-amd64

# Make executable
chmod +x aicli-linux-amd64

# Move to a directory in your PATH
sudo mv aicli-linux-amd64 /usr/local/bin/aicli

# Verify installation
aicli --version

Windows Installation

Download the appropriate EXE file for your system
Rename the executable to aicli.exe if desired
Add the directory to your PATH or move the executable to a directory in your PATH
Open Command Prompt or PowerShell and verify the installation:

Configuration

API Key Setup

You'll need an API key to use AICLI. Set it up using one of these methods:

# Direct method (less secure)
export AICLI_API_KEY="your-api-key"

# File method (more secure)
echo "your-api-key" > ~/.aicli_key
export AICLI_API_KEY_FILE=~/.aicli_key

# Or specify in config file (see below)

Configuration File

Create a configuration file at ~/.aicli.yaml or use the sample config provided in the release:

# Download the sample config
curl -LO https://git.wisehodl.dev/jay/aicli/raw/branch/main/sample-config.yml

# Copy to your home directory
cp sample-config.yml ~/.aicli.yaml

# Edit with your preferred editor
nano ~/.aicli.yaml

See the README for detailed configuration options.

Verification

Verify the downloaded files against the provided checksums:

# Download the checksum file
curl -LO https://git.wisehodl.dev/jay/aicli/releases/download/v1.0.0/SHA256SUMS

# Verify your downloaded binary
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing

Building from Source

If you prefer to build from source:

# Clone the repository
git clone https://git.wisehodl.dev/jay/aicli.git
