Installation

Atlante requires Node.js 22 or later. Choose the installation style that matches how your project manages command-line tools.

Run with npx

Section titled “Run with npx”

Use npx when you want to run the published CLI without managing a global installation:

Terminal window
npx @atlante/cli init

The command uses the published package and its first-party pack. It does not install project dependencies referenced by your configuration.

Add it to a project

Section titled “Add it to a project”

Install the CLI as a development dependency when you want the project to pin the tool version:

Terminal window
npm install --save-dev @atlante/cli
npx atlante init

You can use the equivalent command from another package manager. The repository uses Bun for development, but the published CLI runs on Node.js.

Install globally

Section titled “Install globally”

A global installation provides the bare atlante command:

Terminal window
npm install --global @atlante/cli
atlante --version
atlante init

Choose a preset

Section titled “Choose a preset”

init uses the default @atlante/pack preset. Select another already-installed package preset with --preset:

Terminal window
npm install --save-dev @acme/review-pack
npx @atlante/cli init --preset @acme/review-pack/strict

The selected package must already be declared and installed. Atlante does not install packages, consult a registry, or load remote content.
