Installing Gantry

Verify, extract and install the binary on Linux x86-64 or ARM64, check the box with gantry doctor, and where to go for everything else.

Grab the tarball for your platform from the download page, then verify, extract, and put gantry on your PATH. Pick your platform:

Linux x86-64

verify, extract, install
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing
tar -xzf gantry-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
install -m 0755 gantry-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl/gantry ~/.local/bin/gantry
gantry doctor

Linux ARM64

verify, extract, install
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing
tar -xzf gantry-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
install -m 0755 gantry-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl/gantry ~/.local/bin/gantry
gantry doctor

macOS

A native macOS build is on the way. In the meantime, if you want to experiment, run the generic Linux binary — inside a Linux VM or a container.

gantry doctor is the first thing to run on a fresh box: it checks the tools Gantry needs (git, the optional sandbox, your harness CLIs) and tells you what's still missing.

Everything else

The installed binary documents itself, and the site carries the generated reference:

the command surface, from the binary you just installed
gantry --help
  • Docs — every verb, flag, setting, pattern and agent prompt, exported from Gantry's own build rather than transcribed.
  • The command line — every verb the binary answers to and every flag it parses.
  • Configuration — every setting Gantry reads, its default, and the GANTRY_* environment variables.
  • Harnesses and roles — the coding agents Gantry can run, the keys that configure them, and which role runs which stage of the pipeline.
