# @anchor-lang/cli

[](https://www.anchor-lang.com/docs/references/cli)
The Anchor CLI for building and managing Anchor workspaces.
## Install
```sh
npm install -g @anchor-lang/cli@latest
anchor --version
```
For reproducible installs, we recommend pinning to a specific version
instead of `@latest`, e.g. `npm install -g @anchor-lang/cli@1.0.2`. This
ensures the CLI version is locked across machines and CI runs.
For most users, the recommended installation method is [AVM](https://www.anchor-lang.com/docs/installation).
## Platform Support
This npm package currently bundles the `anchor` binary for `x86_64` Linux only.
On other platforms, the wrapper will try to use a globally installed `anchor`
binary with the same version. If you need a native installation flow, use the
[installation guide](https://www.anchor-lang.com/docs/installation).
