Install the Buron CLI

The Buron CLI is two things: your marketing data and knowledge layer from the terminal (and from CI, where there's no browser), and the fastest way to wire Buron's MCP server and skills into your AI editor.

You only do this setup once per machine and once per project.

Before you begin

You'll need Node.js 18 or later, plus either npm or pnpm. To check which version of Node you have, run node --version.

Install the CLI

Pick the package manager you use, then run the matching command.

npm install -g @buron/cli

pnpm add -g @buron/cli

To confirm it worked, run buron --version. You should see a version number.

Sign in

The CLI uses a browser-based device flow, so you don't have to type or store a password. To sign in, run:

buron login

We print a short user code and open the sign-in page in your browser. Once you approve, the CLI finishes signing you in, and if you're inside a project repo it links the repo to your team right away: pick an organization and team if you have more than one, and you're done. Login ends in a usable state; there's no second required command.

To switch the repo to a different team later, run buron link. To sign out, run buron logout.

Connect your editors

To add the Buron MCP server and skills to Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or GitHub Copilot, run:

buron setup

Setup writes each editor's MCP config in its own convention and installs the skills through npx skills add buron-ai/skills, the open agent-skills installer. Then ask your editor: "What was my ad spend in the last 7 days?"
