Requirements

  • Node.js 22 or newer
  • macOS or Linux (Windows users should use WSL)

​
Install

The CLI ships as a single self-contained .mjs bundle. 
curl -sfL https://api.kylon.io/docs/cli/kylon.mjs -o /tmp/kylon.new \
  && chmod +x /tmp/kylon.new \
  && sudo mv /tmp/kylon.new /usr/local/bin/kylon
This downloads the latest bundle, makes it executable, and moves it to your PATH.

​
Upgrade

Re-run the install command. The sudo mv overwrites the existing binary atomically.

​
Verify

kylon --version

​
Install without sudo

If /usr/local/bin is not writable, install to any directory on PATH: 
mkdir -p "$HOME/.local/bin"
curl -sfL https://api.kylon.io/docs/cli/kylon.mjs -o "$HOME/.local/bin/kylon"
chmod +x "$HOME/.local/bin/kylon"
Then confirm that $HOME/.local/bin is on PATH.
