01
Install the CLI
pipx keeps Apsara isolated from your project dependencies and exposes the apsara command globally.
$
pipx install apsara-agenticLocal installation
Install once. Code locally.
Apsara is a local CLI, not a hosted coding service. You do not create an Apsara account, and your project does not need a cloud workspace.
No account · No source upload · Bring your own API key
