The CLIRequired

Install the Shed CLI.

One binary. It packages your project, builds it on Shed, and returns a live URL.

The CLI is how code gets to Shed. No web uploader, no git integration: shed deploy is the way in. It reads the SHED file, packages what that file declares, and sends it up to build.

Builds run on Shed, not your laptop, and nothing outside the SHED file is picked up. No ambient local state, which is why the same command behaves identically from your shell, your agent's shell, and CI.

What lands on your machine is one binary in ~/.local/bin. No daemon, no background service, nothing written into your project. To remove it, delete the binary.

macOS and Linux, Intel and Apple silicon. Two ways to the same binary.

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shed-sh/cli/main/install.sh | sh

npm install -g @shed-sh/shed

1. 01
   Run itThe curl script fetches the installer published alongside the release and runs that, so its download URLs cannot disagree with the artifacts they name.
2. 02
   Check it workedRun shed version. If your shell reports that the command was not found, the binary is there but ~/.local/bin is not on your PATH. Add export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH" to your shell profile and open a new terminal.

That is the whole install.
