Installation

The BRIO CLI is distributed as a single prebuilt binary. There is nothing to compile and no Python toolchain required on the operator workstation.

Supported platforms​

  • macOS (Apple Silicon, darwin-arm64)
  • macOS (Intel, darwin-x86_64)
  • Linux (linux-x86_64)
curl -fsSL https://github.com/getbrio/brio-releases/releases/latest/download/install.sh | bash

The installer:

  • detects your OS + arch and downloads the matching binary
  • places brio in ~/.local/bin (per-user, no sudo)
  • strips the com.apple.quarantine xattr on macOS so the binary launches
  • prints the next step to add ~/.local/bin to your PATH if it isn't already

Once installed, verify:

brio --help

System-wide install​

To install into a system path (e.g. /usr/local/bin) for all users on the machine:

curl -fsSL https://github.com/getbrio/brio-releases/releases/latest/download/install.sh | bash -s -- --system

This requires sudo.

Manual download​

If you'd rather pin to a specific binary or your network blocks the installer script, grab a binary directly from the releases page:

# pick the asset that matches your machine
curl -fL -o brio \
  https://github.com/getbrio/brio-releases/releases/latest/download/brio-darwin-arm64

chmod +x brio
mv brio ~/.local/bin/brio

Available assets:

  • brio-darwin-arm64
  • brio-darwin-x86_64
  • brio-linux-x86_64

macOS — Gatekeeper​

The binaries are unsigned for now. The installer strips quarantine automatically. If you downloaded the binary by hand and macOS refuses to launch it:

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine ~/.local/bin/brio

…or right-click the binary in Finder → Open → Open. Subsequent runs are unblocked.

Updating​

Re-running the installer always pulls the latest release:

curl -fsSL https://github.com/getbrio/brio-releases/releases/latest/download/install.sh | bash

Uninstall​

rm ~/.local/bin/brio          # or /usr/local/bin/brio for system installs
brio logout                    # before removing the binary, to clear saved config
rm -rf ~/.config/brio
