View resources or test API functions easily and quickly.
Inspect the results of your API commands.
Access Seam API functionality that is not currently available in the Seam Console.

Installing the Seam CLI

Install the Seam CLI using your preferred package manager, or download a standalone binary for your platform.

npm
Homebrew
Arch Linux
Standalone Binary

Install the seam package globally:

npm install -g seam

This package includes both the Seam CLI and the JavaScript SDK. To install just the CLI, use @seamapi/cli instead.

The CLI requires Node.js 22.11.0 or later.

Tap the Seam formula repository, then install the seam formula:

brew tap seamapi/homebrew-seam
brew install seam

The CLI is published to the AUR as seam-bin. Install it with the AUR helper of your choice:

# Using aura
aura -A seam-bin

# Using paru
paru -S seam-bin

# Using yay
yay -S seam-bin

Alternatively, build and install the package manually with makepkg:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/seam-bin.git
cd seam-bin
makepkg -si

Standalone binaries for macOS, Linux, and Windows on both x64 and arm64 are attached to the latest Seam CLI release. Use these if your platform has no package available.Download the asset that matches your platform. Then, on macOS or Linux, make it executable and move it somewhere on your PATH:

chmod +x seam-*
sudo mv seam-* /usr/local/bin/seam

Each release also includes a checksums.txt file so that you can verify the binary that you downloaded.

To confirm your installation, display the installed version:

seam --version
