Installation

The Everr CLI is all you need for observability tasks. With a single command, you can:

• Start a local collector and UI to explore local telemetry
• Use specialized AI skills
• Query local and remote telemetry with SQL syntax, or let your agent do it
• Preview and publish your dashboards, alerts, and other Observability as code resources.

Install the CLI

Run this in your terminal:

curl -fsSL https://everr.dev/install.sh | sh

Follow the installer's PATH instructions, then check that the CLI is available:

everr --version

See the CLI reference for supported platforms and install options. Use everr upgrade to update the CLI and its bundled local UI.

Connect your coding agent

Everr skills guide your agent through instrumentation, telemetry investigations, and creating dashboards, alerts, and runbooks. Install them from your project root:

everr skills install --all --project

Use --global instead of --project if you want the skills available across projects. See Skills for supported agents and update commands.

Prefer to configure OpenTelemetry yourself? Continue with the manual path in Instrument your app.

Connect to an installation

From your repository, run everr cloud login to connect to Everr Cloud. For a self-hosted installation, supply its app URL:

everr cloud login --url https://observability.acme.com

Approve the login in your browser and choose your organization. The CLI saves one session in your user configuration directory. A later successful login replaces that session.

Run everr cloud status to check the current installation, account, organization, and ingestion endpoint. To switch installations, run everr cloud login --url <app-url> again. See Authentication for session storage and login options.

Local telemetry and the local UI work without a remote login.
