JFrog Boost Quickstart

📘
Note
This topic is for individual developers installing JFrog Boost on a local workstation. IT administrators and system administrators who need company-wide installation should see Company-wide Boost Installation.

After you install JFrog Boost and run boost init, supported agents pick up the matching hook and Boost Skill automatically.

Boost supports Cursor, Claude Code, Codex CLI, and GitHub Copilot. For more information on what Boost filters, see Token Savings with JFrog Boost.

To install and initialize JFrog Boost:

Run the installer script to download and install the Boost CLI on your machine:
```
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jfrog/boost/main/install.sh | bash
```
```
irm https://boost.jfrog.com/install.ps1 | iex
```
The script auto-detects your platform and installs the latest release from GitHub.
Initialize Boost globally. The wizard detects supported agents and installs the matching hook and Boost Skill under your home directory:
```
boost init
```
You can pass an explicit target for your agent instead of relying on auto-detection. For example:
```
boost init --cursor
```
Other supported flags include --claude, --codex, and --copilot.
Run a task in your coding agent as you normally would. Boost wraps supported shell commands automatically.

Tip
Run boost report after a coding session to see how much terminal noise Boost removed and estimated cost or emissions savings. For configuration options, see Configuring JFrog Boost.
