Installation

The Ankos CLI is a single Go binary with no runtime dependencies. Install via the official installer or download a binary directly.

Install via shell

curl -sSL https://get.ankos.dev | sh

This downloads the latest release for your platform and installs it to /usr/local/bin/ankos. Override the install location with ANKOS_INSTALL_DIR.

Download a binary manually

Binaries are hosted at releases.ankos.dev. Each is a single static executable — no extraction needed.

Download, make it executable, and put it on your PATH:

curl -fsSL -o /usr/local/bin/ankos \
  https://releases.ankos.dev/cli/latest/ankos-darwin-arm64
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/ankos

To pin to a specific version, swap latest for the version (e.g. v1.0.0):

curl -fsSL -o /usr/local/bin/ankos \
  https://releases.ankos.dev/cli/v1.0.0/ankos-darwin-arm64

Verify the download (recommended for CI)

curl -fsSL -o checksums.txt https://releases.ankos.dev/cli/latest/checksums.txt
shasum -a 256 -c checksums.txt --ignore-missing

The line for your downloaded binary should report OK.

Verify the install

ankos version

You should see the current version printed. If the command is not found, ensure the install directory is on your PATH.

Upgrading

Re-run the install script to upgrade to the latest release:

curl -sSL https://get.ankos.dev | sh

Uninstall

Remove the ankos binary from /usr/local/bin (or wherever you installed it). No other system changes are made by the installer.
