👋 Welcome to HowToUseMoltbot Quick Start

Linux installation

Same idea as elsewhere: get Node 22+, then install the CLI and run onboarding.

Quick path:

curl -fsSL https://molt.bot/install.sh | bash

The script handles Node (via NodeSource if needed), npm global prefix quirks (EACCES on fresh distros → ~/.npm-global), and then runs the wizard. If you prefer not to pipe from the web, use a global npm install:

npm install -g moltbot@latest moltbot onboard --install-daemon

Gateway as a service: Onboarding can install a systemd user service so the gateway starts on boot. See Setup for the manual flow.

Skills / dev: FAQ: How do I install skills on Linux?. For full installer details: Installer.
