Install and Authenticate

1. Install the CLI

AGW CLI requires Node.js 18+ and npm 10+.

npm install -g @abstract-foundation/agw-cli
agw-cli --version

Run the init flow:

agw-cli auth init --json '{"chainId":2741}' --execute

This opens the companion app in your browser, where you connect an existing AGW or create a new one and approve the agent signer for this machine.

agw-cli session doctor --json '{}'
agw-cli session status --json '{"fields":["status","readiness","accountAddress","policyPreset"]}'

Continue to Run AGW as MCP if your host supports MCP.
