Set up Ritual in minutes
One CLI command, or wire Ritual's MCP server straight into your coding agent. Pick your path.
- 1 Install the CLI
One global install — the ritual command is then available everywhere.
npm install -g @ritualai/cli - 2 Run ritual init in your project
Signs you in via browser, mints a token, binds the workspace, and configures every detected coding agent — MCP server plus the /ritual skill.
ritual init - 3 Build
Kick off a discovery-backed build right from your terminal — it launches your coding agent with /ritual build preloaded. Already inside an agent? Restart it once, then type /ritual build.
ritual build "<what you want to ship>"
Something off? ritual doctor checks credentials, endpoints, and agent wiring.
