Install the synaptory CLI
The CLI runs alongside the Claude Code plugin — it handles authentication, skill cache sync, telemetry, and project enumeration. One install per laptop covers every project you're a member of.
Quick install
macOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://synaptory.h3t.co/cli/install.sh | bash
Windows (PowerShell)
iwr -useb https://synaptory.h3t.co/cli/install.ps1 | iex
Both installers detect your OS+arch, fetch the right binary, verify
SHA-256, and put synap on your PATH
(under ~/.local/bin on Unix, %LOCALAPPDATA%\synap\bin on Windows).
First run
synap login
synap whoami
synap projects list
synap login --device-code; it shows a code you paste into
a browser on another machine. Useful for SSH-only servers or CI runners.
What the CLI does for you
- Auth — single sign-in, token refresh on every request, revoke locally with
synap logout. - Skill cache sync — pulls watermarked skill bodies into
~/.synap/.cache/skills/so the plugin loads instantly. - Telemetry — sends per-session and per-receipt events to the control plane for project audit + Grafana dashboards.
- Project enumeration —
synap projects listshows every project you're a member of and your role in each. - Outbox replay — when offline, events queue locally and replay on next online session.
Manual download
Latest version pointer: /cli/latest.json.
Per-version binaries live under /cli/<version>/:
| Platform | Binary |
|---|---|
| macOS arm64 (Apple Silicon) | synap-darwin-arm64 |
| macOS amd64 (Intel) | synap-darwin-amd64 |
| Linux amd64 | synap-linux-amd64 |
| Linux arm64 | synap-linux-arm64 |
| Windows amd64 | synap-windows-amd64.exe |
Each version directory ships a sha256sums.txt for integrity verification.
Updating
The CLI checks /cli/latest.json on each
invocation; when a newer version is available it prints a one-line notice with
the upgrade command. To force right now:
synap upgrade
Or just re-run the install one-liner — the installer is idempotent and replaces the binary in place.
Uninstall
synap logout # revoke session + clear keychain
rm $(which synap) # macOS / Linux
# Windows: delete %LOCALAPPDATA%\synap\
