Install

One command downloads the latest release for your machine, checks it against the release's SHA256SUMS, and registers borer with every MCP client it finds.

macOS and Linux:

bash

curl -fsSL https://borer.lol/install | sh

Windows (PowerShell):

powershell

irm https://borer.lol/install.ps1 | iex

setup finds Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, Gemini CLI, Codex CLI and Zed. It backs up each file it edits to <file>.bak.

As a Claude Code plugin, which fetches the binary on its first session:

text

/plugin marketplace add imjustprism/borer
/plugin install borer@borer

Or by hand: download an archive from the latest release (Windows x64, Linux x64, macOS), then:

bash

./borer setup           # show what would change
./borer setup --apply   # register borer with every client found

From source, with the toolchain that rust-toolchain.toml pins:

bash

git clone https://github.com/imjustprism/borer
cd borer
cargo build --release
target/release/borer setup --apply

To register it by hand:

json

{ "mcpServers": { "borer": { "command": "/path/to/borer" } } }
