Installation

Quick Install (Recommended)

The install script downloads the latest release binary for your platform:

macOS / Linux

curl -fsSL https://roborev.io/install.sh | bash

This installs to ~/.local/bin by default.

Windows

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://roborev.io/install.ps1 | iex"

This installs to %USERPROFILE%\.roborev\bin and adds it to your PATH. Both x64 and ARM64 are supported.

The installer verifies SHA256 checksums by default. To customize installation:

Environment Variable	Description
ROBOREV_INSTALL_DIR	Custom install directory (default: %USERPROFILE%\.roborev\bin)
ROBOREV_NO_MODIFY_PATH	Set to skip adding install dir to PATH
ROBOREV_SKIP_CHECKSUM	Set to skip checksum verification (not recommended)

Go Install

If you have Go installed:

go install github.com/roborev-dev/roborev/cmd/roborev@latest

Ensure $GOPATH/bin is in your PATH:

export PATH="$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin"

Build from Source

git clone https://github.com/roborev-dev/roborev
cd roborev
make install

The make install target builds with version information embedded (e.g., v0.7.0-5-gabcdef).

For quick iteration during development:

go install ./cmd/...

Verify Installation

roborev version

Update

Update to the latest version:

roborev update

This downloads and replaces the current binary with the latest release.

Agent Requirements

roborev requires at least one AI agent CLI to be installed:

Agent	Install Command

Gemini	npm install -g @google/gemini-cli
Copilot	npm install -g @github/copilot

roborev auto-detects installed agents and falls back in order: codex, claude-code, gemini, copilot, opencode, droid.
