Installation
Get Sessions running on your development machine.
Quick Install
Install Sessions with a single command:
bash
curl -fsSL https://sessions.shotgun.dev/install.sh | sh
This installs the CLI to ~/.local/bin and automatically sets up the Claude Code plugin.
If ~/.local/bin isn't in your PATH, add export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin" to your shell profile.
Authentication
Most commands require authentication. You have two options:
Browser Authentication (Recommended)
bash
sessions auth
Opens your browser to sign in and create an API key.
Manual API Key
bash
sessions login
Paste an API key from sessions.shotgun.dev/dashboard/keys.
Configuration is stored at ~/.config/sessions/config.json
