Installation

1. Create Your Playnex Account

Before installing the CLI, you’ll need a Playnex account. This gives you access to your workspace, agents, memory, and capsules.

Create your account here:

Create Your Account →

Once your account is created, you’ll be ready to connect your local environment to your workspace.

2. Requirements

Playnex runs on everyday hardware — laptops, desktops, and small local servers. You don’t need a GPU, though models will run faster if you have one.

• macOS, Windows, or Linux
• Node.js 18+ installed
• At least 4 GB RAM (8+ recommended)
• Optional: GPU for accelerated local models

3. Install the Playnex CLI

The Playnex CLI manages your agents, tools, workspace, and local capsules. Install it globally using npm:

npm install -g playnex-cli

Verify installation:

playnex --version

---

4. Log In

Log in to your Playnex account from the CLI:

playnex login

This authenticates your machine and prepares your local workspace directory under ~/.playnex.

---

5. Sync Your Workspace

Pull down your agents, tools, and capsule metadata:

playnex workspace sync

This ensures your local environment mirrors your cloud workspace so agents can run locally.

---

6. Run Your First Agent

If you already have agents in your workspace, you can run one immediately:

playnex agent chat myagent

Or create a new one:

playnex agent create

You’re now ready to begin building in the agent‑native era — with local‑first intelligence running directly on your machine.
