Package Install
Each tagged release attaches Debian and RPM packages to GitHub releases; the links below always fetch the latest one. Repository-style apt install zypheron and dnf install zypheron require the package repositories to be published first.
# Debian / Ubuntu / Kali / Parrot
curl -LO https://github.com/KKingZero/Zypheron-CLI/releases/latest/download/zypheron-linux-amd64.deb
sudo apt install ./zypheron-linux-amd64.deb
# Fedora / RHEL-family
curl -LO https://github.com/KKingZero/Zypheron-CLI/releases/latest/download/zypheron-linux-amd64.rpm
sudo dnf install ./zypheron-linux-amd64.rpm
Bootstrap from Source
git clone https://github.com/KKingZero/Zypheron-CLI.git
cd Zypheron-CLI
bash scripts/install/setup-hybrid.sh
Source bootstrap is the path for Arch and other distros, and for developers who want the full repository, a local build flow, automated dependency setup, shell completion, and optional external tool installation. setup-hybrid.sh builds the Go CLI into ~/.local/bin/zypheron.
Prefer Desktop?
Prebuilt, signed binaries ship with the Zypheron Desktop app (GPG + SHA verified). The open-source CLI remains free and can be installed through package artifacts or source.
Requirements
- Go 1.24+ for source builds
- Python 3.9+
- Linux (macOS and Windows/WSL support in progress)
Post-Install Verification
zypheron --version
zypheron doctor
If you skipped some setup work initially, the repo-backed recovery path is zypheron install-deps --all, then zypheron tools check, then zypheron tools install-all --critical-only --yes before broader automation.
