# Installation
Packaged binaries are the recommended installation. They need Git 2.40 or
newer; they do not need a local Go toolchain.
## macOS and Linux
```bash
curl -fsSL https://githop.xyz/hop/hop/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.sh | sh
```
The installer:
1. detects macOS/Linux and `amd64`/`arm64`;
2. downloads the matching archive from the latest Gitea Release;
3. downloads `checksums.txt` and verifies SHA-256 before extraction;
4. installs the CLI to `~/.local/bin/hop`;
5. adds `~/.local/bin` to `.zprofile` or `.profile` when necessary; and
6. runs `hop skill install --force` for Codex.
Review before execution:
```bash
curl -fsSLO https://githop.xyz/hop/hop/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.sh
less install.sh
sh install.sh
```
Installer options are environment variables:
| Variable | Default | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| `HOP_VERSION` | `latest` | Release tag such as `v0.1.0` |
| `HOP_INSTALL_DIR` | `~/.local/bin` | Binary destination |
| `HOP_INSTALL_SKILL` | `1` | Set to `0` to skip Codex skill installation |
| `HOP_MODIFY_PATH` | `1` | Set to `0` to leave shell profiles unchanged |
| `HOP_GITEA_URL` | `https://githop.xyz` | Gitea instance base URL |
| `HOP_REPOSITORY` | `hop/hop` | Alternate Gitea owner/repository |
Example:
```bash
HOP_VERSION=v0.1.0 HOP_INSTALL_DIR="$HOME/bin" sh install.sh
```
## Windows
In PowerShell as your normal user:
```powershell
irm https://githop.xyz/hop/hop/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.ps1 | iex
```
The script verifies the Windows archive, installs to
`%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Hop`, updates the user PATH, and installs the Codex
skill. To pin a version after downloading the script:
```powershell
.\install.ps1 -Version v0.1.0
```
Use `-SkipSkill` only when another agent runtime will receive the skill. Use
`-SkipPath` when another tool manages your PATH.
## Go install
With Go 1.26 or newer:
```bash
go install githop.xyz/hop/hop/cmd/hop@latest
hop skill install --force
```
Put `$(go env GOPATH)/bin` on PATH if `hop` is not found.
## Build from source
```bash
git clone https://githop.xyz/hop/hop.git
cd hop
go test ./...
go build -trimpath -o hop ./cmd/hop
mkdir -p "$HOME/.local/bin"
install -m 755 hop "$HOME/.local/bin/hop"
"$HOME/.local/bin/hop" skill install --force
```
Source builds are intended for contributors and as a pre-release fallback.
## Verify
```bash
hop version
hop help
git --version
```
If Codex Desktop was open during installation, restart it. See
[Getting started](Getting-Started) next.
