Installation - BRICKS

BRICKS CLI ships as a native standalone executable for macOS, Linux, and Windows. No Node.js runtime is required. If you prefer, you can also install it from npm or Bun.

Install

macOS
Linux
Windows
npm / Bun

curl -fsSL https://cdn.bricks.tools/bricks-cli/release/install.sh | sh

The script detects your architecture (Apple Silicon or Intel), downloads the native binary to ~/.local/bin/bricks, and makes it executable.If ~/.local/bin is not on your PATH, add this to your shell profile:

export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"

curl -fsSL https://cdn.bricks.tools/bricks-cli/release/install.sh | sh

The script detects your architecture (x86_64 or ARM64) and C library (glibc or musl), downloads the native binary to ~/.local/bin/bricks, and makes it executable.If ~/.local/bin is not on your PATH, add this to your shell profile:

export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"

Run in PowerShell:

irm https://cdn.bricks.tools/bricks-cli/release/install.ps1 | iex

The script detects your architecture (x64 or ARM64) and installs bricks.exe to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\bricks-cli\bin\.If the install directory is not on your user PATH, the script prints the command to add it. You can also add it from Settings > System > About > Advanced system settings > Environment Variables.

The CLI is also published on npm. This method requires Node.js 22+ or Bun.

# npm
npm install -g @fugood/bricks-cli

# Bun
bun add -g @fugood/bricks-cli

Verify

bricks --version

If the command is not found, confirm that your install directory is on your PATH and restart your terminal.

Beta channel

Install the beta channel alongside the stable release. The beta binary is named bricks-beta, so both channels can coexist.

macOS / Linux
Windows

curl -fsSL https://cdn.bricks.tools/bricks-cli/beta/install.sh | sh -s -- --beta

Run it with:

bricks-beta --version

irm https://cdn.bricks.tools/bricks-cli/beta/install.ps1 -OutFile install-beta.ps1
.\install-beta.ps1 -Beta

Run it with:

bricks-beta --version

Update

Run bricks update-cli to update an existing install in-place. It auto-detects how the CLI was installed (npm, Bun, or standalone binary) and runs the matching update command. See bricks update-cli in the command reference.

bricks update-cli         # prompts before updating
bricks update-cli -y      # non-interactive
