Tachyon CLI Quick Start

1. Install

curl -fsSL https://tachyon.so/install.sh | bash

Requires Python 3.11+. The script installs pipx if needed.

2. Login

tachyon login --invite-code Ow1B924dSGCUrVwWlnoZPw

This opens GitHub for authentication. After authorizing, you'll be prompted to install the Tachyon GitHub App on your repositories.

3. Start a scan

This will run the scan in a background process. It will store state in ~/.tachyon. You can see logs in ~/.tachyon/scans/<id>/daemon.log.

tachyon scan https://github.com/your-org/your-repo

Add --follow to stream logs in real-time. Note: Ctrl+C in this mode will stop the scan.

tachyon scan https://github.com/your-org/your-repo --follow

4. Check status

tachyon status <scan-id>

Other commands

tachyon --help          # See all commands
tachyon doctor          # Check system readiness
tachyon tail <scan-id>  # Stream scan events live

Local data

Scan info and results are cached in ~/.tachyon/. You can browse past and current scans and their outputs there.
