Installation

Poly Code CLI runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows (via WSL). It requires the Bun runtime, which the installer handles automatically.

One-Line Install

Terminal
bash
curl -fsSL https://poly.inc/code.sh | bash

The installer detects your platform, installs Bun if needed, downloads the latest binary, and adds it to your PATH.

Verify Installation

Terminal
bash
codecli --version
