Install and update

The recommended public install path is the hosted installer for the native sumelabs/cli binary. The binary is the sume.com developer-platform CLI for api.sume.com workflows.

Install on macOS or Linux

The installer downloads the latest release binary for your OS and architecture. Then it compares the binary with checksums.txt and installs sume in ~/.sume-com/bin. If a different sume is already on your PATH, the installer does not silently overwrite it.

Install on Windows PowerShell

Direct GitHub binary fallback

The names of the current release assets are sume-darwin-arm64, sume-darwin-x64, sume-linux-arm64, sume-linux-x64, and sume-windows-x64.exe. Each GitHub Release also has checksums.txt attached. For a pinned install, replace latest in the URL with a release tag such as v0.1.6.

Manual API-key setup stays available for CI and controlled server environments. But it is not the recommended first-run path for local users.

Development build

Run these commands from the CLI source repository:

When necessary, build a local binary:

Verify

sume update --check shows if a newer GitHub Release exists. It does not change local files. When you decide to upgrade, run the hosted installer again.
