Nui

nui

nui is a self-hosted web UI for interactive AI agent sessions. Run agents locally in your terminal, in Docker, or on a remote server — all from one interface.

Install

**Linux and macOS** (installs to `~/.local/bin`):

curl -fsSL https://nui.plmbr.dev/install.sh | sh

**Windows** (installs to `%LOCALAPPDATA%\nui` and adds it to your user `PATH`):

irm https://nui.plmbr.dev/install.ps1 | iex

Install a specific version:

NUI_VERSION=v0.4.0-alpha curl -fsSL https://nui.plmbr.dev/install.sh | sh

$env:NUI_VERSION = "v0.4.0-alpha"; irm https://nui.plmbr.dev/install.ps1 | iex

**Manual install:** download the archive for your platform from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/plmbr/nui/releases), extract the `nui` binary (or `nui.exe` on Windows), and place it on your `PATH`.

Updating

nui update --check   # exit 0 = up to date, 1 = available
nui update           # confirm → download → confirm → replace this binary
nui update --yes     # non-interactive

Or re-run the install script / download a newer release. The web UI (Customize → General) can check for updates and prompt before download/install. Auto-check is on by default (notify only; never silent install).

**Desktop:** the app can update itself (Electron-style: check → notify → download → install & restart) and separately upgrade the PATH CLI (`~/.local/bin/nui`).

**macOS note:** release binaries and the desktop `.app` are currently **not** Developer ID–notarized. The CLI install script strips quarantine and ad-hoc codesigns the binary automatically. If you install manually or download `nui.app`:

xattr -cr /path/to/nui          # CLI binary
codesign -s - -f /path/to/nui  # required if `nui` exits with "zsh: killed"
xattr -cr /path/to/nui.app      # desktop app

Then open the app (right-click → Open the first time, or `open nui.app`). If macOS still blocks it, allow it under **System S
