Get CLI Setu on both sides of the bridge

Two free installs: the app on your phone and the companion on your computer. Both take about a minute.

Available now on Google Play for Android. Free to download.

One command on Windows, macOS or Linux (Windows is the most thoroughly tested). Requires Node.js 18 or newer.

$ npm install -g cli-setu

Then pair your phone (this does not start a terminal session):

$ cli-setu pair

Then start a session:

$ cli-setu session

~/quick-start

Your personal quick start

Choose your computer and AI agent. We’ll show the exact commands, in order.

My computer

My AI agent

Install Node.js 18 or newer
Skip this if node -v already shows 18 or higher. Uses Homebrew. No Homebrew? Get Node.js from nodejs.org instead.
$ brew install node
Install the CLI Setu companion
One global npm package. It runs quietly in the background.
$ npm install -g cli-setu
Install Claude Code
Then sign in the way Claude Code asks you to. Check Claude Code’s own docs if this command has changed.
$ npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code
Pair your phone
A QR code appears. Scan it with the CLI Setu app. You only do this once. Pairing does not start a terminal session.
$ cli-setu pair
Start a session
Everything in this terminal now shows on your phone.
$ cli-setu session
Run Claude Code
Inside the session, launch the agent and give it a task. Approve its requests from your phone.
