Overview
The Nen CLI (nen) gives you full control over desktops from your terminal.
Installation
The fastest way to install is with the install script — it detects your OS and architecture, verifies the checksum, and updates your shell profile automatically:nen to ~/.nen/bin and adds it to your PATH via ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc. Restart your shell or run source ~/.zshrc (or ~/.bashrc) to pick it up.
Verify the installation:
Configuration
The CLI reads a couple of environment variables. These also work anywhere you construct desktop API URLs by hand (e.g. a BYOA agent loop), so the same values can back both flows.| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
NEN_API_KEY | — | Your Nen API key. Required for every command except --help. |
NEN_API_URL | https://desktop.api.getnen.ai | Desktop API base URL. Override when pointing at a non-prod environment. The --api-url flag does the same for a single invocation. |
