Install a framework from the Registry in one command

0.4.0 · 2026-09-18 · Plugin release 5.3.1

eidos install takes the place of init and adds a published framework, a repository, or a folder to a new or existing root, and the Registry opens.

New

  • eidos install

    Give it a Registry package (@owner/name), a GitHub owner/repo@tag or git URL, a repository on this machine, or a folder. On an existing root it adds what the source has that the root lacks, and always shows the plan first. Install →

  • The Registry

    eidosmd.com/registry lists every published framework, with a page per package and its install counts. An install sends one request with the package name and nothing else; --offline or EIDOS_NO_TELEMETRY skips it.

Improved

  • The seeds are roots

    The bundled software, book, and research seeds are laid out the way plugin release 5.3.1 lays them out, so the copy in the CLI and the published package are the same thing.

Changed

  • init is now install

    init stays as a hidden alias for this one release.
