Last updated: June 21, 2026

Quick Install

Install YeePilot with the official installer:

bash
curl -fsSL https://yee.to/install.sh | bash

The installer:

  • asks you to accept the YeePilot EULA before continuing
  • detects your operating system and CPU architecture
  • downloads the matching public release
  • verifies the release checksum when checksum data is available
  • installs to ~/.local/bin/yeepilot by default
  • creates the short alias yee -> yeepilot
  • adds ~/.local/bin to your shell PATH when needed

If you intentionally want a system-wide install path, run the installer with INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local/bin.

After installation, yeepilot legal prints the current terms, privacy, and EULA links from the client.

Supported Platforms

YeePilot ships native binaries for:

  • Linux (amd64, arm64)
  • macOS (amd64, arm64)
  • Windows (amd64, arm64)

Verify Installation

bash
yeepilot version

You should see version/build metadata.

If your shell cannot find yeepilot immediately after installation, open a new terminal window or run:

bash
export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"

First Setup

Run the setup wizard:

bash
yeepilot setup

The wizard configures:

  • AI provider and model
  • API credentials
  • language/preferences
  • platform authentication linkage

If you only need to manage platform login later:

bash
yeepilot setup --auth

Start Using YeePilot

Interactive TUI session:

bash
yeepilot
yeepilot run

Short alias (when installed with the official installer, which creates yee -> yeepilot):

bash
yee

One-shot execution:

bash
yeepilot exec "show the largest files in this repository"
yee exec "show the largest files in this repository"

Manual Update and Uninstall

Update to the latest signed public release:

bash
yeepilot update

Check availability without installing:

bash
yeepilot update --check

Rollback to previous binary:

bash
yeepilot update --rollback

YeePilot also checks for updates on startup when automatic checks are enabled. If a newer version is available, the client keeps the notice visible after the intro so you can run the update command when ready.

Uninstall options:

bash
yeepilot uninstall --all
yeepilot uninstall --keep-config
yeepilot uninstall --binary-only
