Indexed

Installation

Install the Indexed CLI via pipx, pip, Docker, or from source.

Installation

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.10+ — check with python3 --version
  • pip — usually included with Python

Install

pipx installs Indexed in an isolated environment so it won't conflict with other Python packages.

Terminal
pip install pipx
pipx ensurepath
pipx install indexed

Restart your terminal, then verify:

Terminal
indexed --help
Terminal
pip install indexed
indexed --help
Terminal
git clone https://github.com/LennardZuendorf/indexed.git
cd indexed
uv sync

Source installs use uv run

When installed from source, prefix all commands with uv run. For example: uv run indexed --help instead of indexed --help.

Terminal
docker build -t indexed .
docker run indexed --help

See Run with Docker for full Docker usage including MCP server setup.

Initialize Your Workspace

After installing, initialize the Indexed workspace:

Terminal
indexed config init --yes

This creates ~/.indexed/config.toml with default settings. To customize the configuration interactively, omit --yes:

Terminal
indexed config init

See the Configuration Reference for all available settings.
