Install the CLI

Install the pipeline-kit command once on each developer machine. Then initialize a project in each repo.

From the repository URL

uv tool install git+<this-repo-url>
# or
pipx install git+<this-repo-url>

Replace <this-repo-url> with the git remote for this kit.

From a local clone

git clone <this-repo-url>
cd pipeline-kit
./install.sh

install.sh selects uv or pipx and installs the same pipeline-kit command.

Check it

pipeline-kit --version

Common commands after that

pipeline-kit init [project] # install/update a project pack
pipeline-kit setup # install/update the user pack
pipeline-kit update [project] # refresh while preserving config.json
pipeline-kit doctor [project] # verify the active pack
pipeline-kit workflows [project] # list available workflows
pipeline-kit uninstall [project] # remove files managed by the kit

The old python3 install.py flags remain for compatibility and for the maintainer-only --sync-kit operation.
