Other operating systems and architectures do not have a maintained release binary. ## Install from GitHub Releases The install script downloads the latest matching `openpost-cli-*` release asset and installs it as `openpost`: ```sh curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/getopenpost/openpost/main/scripts/install-cli.sh | sh ``` It supports Linux on `amd64` and `arm64`, and macOS on Apple Silicon (`arm64`). To install the desktop MCP stdio proxy at the same time: ```sh curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/getopenpost/openpost/main/scripts/install-cli.sh | sh -s -- --with-mcp ``` That installs the matching `openpost-mcp-*` release asset as `openpost-mcp`. ## Manual Install Download the matching CLI binary from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/getopenpost/openpost/releases/latest), then put it on your `PATH`. ```sh chmod +x openpost-cli-linux-amd64 sudo mv openpost-cli-linux-amd64 /usr/local/bin/openpost openpost --version ``` For MCP clients, also download the matching `openpost-mcp-*` asset and put it on your `PATH` as `openpost-mcp`. ## Build from Source From the repository root: ```sh devenv shell -- bash -lc 'cd cli && go build -ldflags="-s -w" -o ../openpost ./cmd/openpost' ``` Or from inside `cli/`: ```sh go build ./cmd/openpost ``` ## First Run ```sh openpost instance add local http://localhost:8080 openpost instance use local openpost auth login http://localhost:8080 openpost workspace list openpost workspace use personal ``` For every command and flag, see the [generated CLI reference](https://docs.openpo.st/reference/cli).
