Install

The easiest install path is npm. It downloads a prebuilt GitHub Release binary when the package installs.

npm install -g phonton-cli
phonton doctor

Run without installing:

npx phonton-cli doctor

Build from source with Cargo:

cargo install --git https://github.com/phonton-dev/phonton-cli --tag v0.19.0 phonton-cli --locked --force

Check the install:

phonton version
phonton doctor

Download Phonton CLI​

Prebuilt binaries are attached to the latest GitHub release:

npx phonton-cli version

Use npm for the normal path. Use the release assets when npm is unavailable or when a script needs a pinned binary artifact.

Expected first run​

phonton doctor should be the first command after installation. It gives a compact view of the local setup:

config: ok
provider: configured
git: available
cargo: available
store: ready

If provider setup fails, continue with Configure.

Current status​

Phonton CLI is a pre-1.0 public alpha. Use it if you are comfortable running a Rust binary, reading diagnostics, and filing sharp bug reports.
