Installation

One command. That’s it.

Terminal window
curl -fsSL https://gee-desktop.s3.amazonaws.com/GeeCode/install.sh | bash
Terminal window
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -c "irm https://gee-desktop.s3.amazonaws.com/GeeCode/install.ps1 | iex"

This installs the gee-code CLI and all dependencies. When it finishes, you’ll have the gee-code command available in your terminal.

  • macOS, Linux, or Windows 10/11
  • PowerShell 5.1+ (Windows installs)
  • Python 3.10+
  • Node.js 18+ (for the MCP server layer)

Gee-Code connects to the Gee platform for memory, skills, model routing, and collaboration features. You need to authenticate after installation.

Terminal window
gee-code auth login

This will give you a URL and an install code. Open the URL in your browser.

On the Gee website, enter the install code displayed in your terminal. This links your CLI to your Gee account.

If this is your first time, you’ll be asked for basic profile information — your name and any preferences you’d like Gee-Code to know about. This powers the memory system so Gee-Code can personalize its behavior across sessions.

Terminal window
gee-code --version

You should see the current version number. You’re ready to go.

The installer:

  1. Installed the Python package — the gee-code CLI and its runtime
  2. Set up the MCP server — the tool execution layer that gives the AI access to your filesystem, shell, and other capabilities
  3. Created config directories~/.gee-code/ for global settings, credentials, and memory

Your API credentials, memory, and preferences are stored locally in ~/.gee-code/. Project-specific configuration lives in .gee/ within each project directory.

Section titled “Optional: Install The Terminal (Recommended)”

The Terminal is the companion desktop app for Gee-Code, with built-in panels for browser, files, editor, git, and timeline workflow.

After installing The Terminal, run gee-code in a terminal panel and it will auto-detect the app integration.
