Install the CLI

Run the install script in your terminal. Requires Python 3.12+.
curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DeepVista-AI/deepvista-cli/main/install.sh | bash
If Python 3.12 isn’t available on your machine, install it first before running the command above.
Using an AI agent? Paste this prompt directly into Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible agent and it will handle the install for you:
Install DeepVista CLI. Visit cli.deepvista.ai for docs.
Install command: curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DeepVista-AI/deepvista-cli/main/install.sh | bash
Requires Python 3.12+. If Python 3.12 isn't available, install it first.
After install, run "deepvista auth login" and share the URL with me so I can authenticate.

Authenticate

Once installed, log in to connect the CLI to your DeepVista account.
1

Start the login flow

deepvista auth login
This opens a browser window for authentication. Complete the sign-in and copy the code shown.
2

Paste your code (if prompted)

deepvista auth login --code <code>
3

Verify you're connected

deepvista auth status
You should see your account details confirming a successful connection.

Capture your first note

With the CLI installed and authenticated, save an insight to your knowledge base in one line.
deepvista notes + "Your insight here"
Example:
deepvista notes +quick "Tobi Lütke: the company is a tool to amplify what you love"
✓ Note saved to knowledge base
  id: note_7d3f9a
  indexed: semantic + full-text
Your note is immediately indexed for both semantic and full-text search — ready for your agent to find and synthesize later.
