Use this route on Windows, macOS, or Linux when Python 3.10 or newer is available. Choose uvx for one-off use, or pipx for a persistent CLI installation.
The commands below need a published package. Until the first v* release is tagged, no CLI route resolves; use manual copy from main, which never requires Python or a package manager.
Install uv using your platform's supported method, then run Devspec Lite without a permanent installation:
uvx devspec --version
On Windows:
python -m pip install --user pipx
python -m pipx ensurepathOn macOS or Linux:
python3 -m pip install --user pipx
python3 -m pipx ensurepathThen, in a new terminal on any platform:
pipx install devspec
devspec --version
Restart the terminal if devspec is not found after ensurepath.
Initialize and validate the repository with the CLI quick start. For upgrades, synchronization, and profile changes, see the CLI lifecycle guide.
