kane-cli

Browser automation CLI for KaneAI — AI-powered testing by LambdaTest. Run automated browser tasks using natural language objectives from your terminal.

Quick Start

npm install -g @testmuai/kane-cli
kane-cli login
kane-cli run

Installation

npm (recommended)

npm install -g @testmuai/kane-cli

Homebrew (macOS / Linux)

brew install LambdaTest/kane/kane-cli

Shell script

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LambdaTest/kane-cli/main/install.sh | sh

Installs a specific version:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LambdaTest/kane-cli/main/install.sh | sh -s -- --version 0.2.0

Requires Node.js 18+ and npm. The script delegates to npm install -g @testmuai/kane-cli so you get the same install as the npm method above. For an install that doesn't need Node, use Homebrew.
