## Quickstart
### Installing and running LLMX CLI
Install globally with npm:
```shell
npm install -g @valknarthing/llmx
```
Then simply run `llmx` to get started:
```shell
llmx
```
<details>
<summary>You can also go to the <a href="https://github.com/valknarthing/llmx/releases/latest">latest GitHub Release</a> and download the appropriate binary for your platform.</summary>
Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:
- macOS
- Apple Silicon/arm64: `llmx-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz`
- x86_64 (older Mac hardware): `llmx-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz`
- Linux
- x86_64: `llmx-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz`
- arm64: `llmx-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz`
Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., `llmx-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl`), so you likely want to rename it to `llmx` after extracting it.
</details>
### Using LLMX with LiteLLM
LLMX is powered by [LiteLLM](https://docs.litellm.ai/), which provides access to 100+ LLM providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Azure, AWS Bedrock, and more.
**Quick Start with LiteLLM:**
```bash
# Set your LiteLLM server URL (default: http://localhost:4000/v1)
export LLMX_BASE_URL="http://localhost:4000/v1"
export LLMX_API_KEY="your-api-key"
# Run LLMX
llmx "hello world"
```
**Configuration:** See [LITELLM-SETUP.md](https://github.com/valknarthing/llmx/blob/main/LITELLM-SETUP.md) for detailed setup instructions.
You can also use LLMX with ChatGPT or OpenAI API keys. For authentication options, see the [authentication docs](https://github.com/valknarthing/llmx/blob/main/docs/authentication.md).
### Model Context Protocol (MCP)
LLMX can access MCP servers. To configure them, refer to the [config docs](https://github.com/valknarthing/llmx/blob/main/docs/config.md#mcp_servers).
### Configuration
LLMX CLI supports a rich set of configuration options, with preferences stored in `~/.llmx/config.toml`. For full configuration options, see [Configuration](https://github.com/valknarthing/llmx/blob/main/docs/config.md).
