Installation

Install the crewkit CLI to start managing your team's AI coding sessions.

brew install karibew/tap/crewkit

Verify the installation:

crewkit --version

Prerequisites

• Claude Code must be installed (claude command available)
• Git — crewkit detects your project from the git remote
• Node.js 18+ (if installing via npm)

Platform notes

macOS — Homebrew is the recommended install method. Apple Silicon (arm64) is supported; Intel (x64) builds are not yet available.

Linux — Use the curl installer or npm. Builds are available for x64.

Windows — Use WSL and install the Linux build with any command above. Native Windows builds are paused, so the Chocolatey package is frozen at 0.4.1 and npm no longer ships a Windows binary. WSL also enables background observation, which is Unix-only.

Updating

crewkit update

To check for updates without installing:

crewkit update --check

For script-installed binaries, crewkit also checks for updates in the background (at most hourly) and installs them automatically after verifying the release signature; set CREWKIT_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 to disable. Installs owned by Homebrew, npm, or Chocolatey are never touched — crewkit tells you the right package-manager command instead.
