# Install and Update

`micromeet` is Micromeet's command-line tool. It does the same Care Workspace work as the app — reading records, uploading MCU files, importing patients — from a terminal or a script. This guide covers CLI **0.0.25**.

## Already have Cowork?

Cowork includes the CLI and keeps it up to date with the app. The AI in Cowork can use it straight away.

## Install on its own

macOS (Terminal):

```bash
curl -fsSL --retry 3 --retry-all-errors --connect-timeout 15 https://assets.micromeet.ai/apps/micromeet-cli/install.sh | sh
```

Windows x64 (PowerShell):

```powershell
irm https://assets.micromeet.ai/apps/micromeet-cli/install.ps1 | iex
```

The installer checks the download and puts `micromeet` in `~/.micromeet/bin`. Node.js is not needed.

## Update

```bash
micromeet update --check   # is there a newer version?
micromeet update           # install it
```

## Help

```bash
micromeet help              # start page
micromeet modules           # the full command tree
micromeet crms mcu --help   # help for one command group
