Quick Start

Install BeeWeave in the environment where you want to use the bwe CLI:

pip install beeweave

Then run setup in the project or workspace directory where BeeWeave should create its runtime folders:

bwe setup

bwe setup creates vault/ and workbench/ in the current workspace, writes global config under ~/.beeweave/config, and installs the selected agent skills and bootstrap files.

Common Commands

bwe info
bwe list
bwe setup --agents claude,codex
bwe setup --global-extra beeweave-capture,beeweave-status
bwe uninstall

bwe uninstall removes BeeWeave-managed skills, bootstrap files, and ~/.beeweave config. It does not delete your vault/ or workbench/ content.

Use the Skills

After setup, open the workspace in a supported agent and use the skills in natural language or command-style prompts:

/beeweave-ingest workbench/inbox
/beeweave-query what do I know about rate limiting?
/beeweave-update

Source Checkout Setup

When working from this repository rather than the PyPI package, run:

bash setup.sh
uv run bwe info

Use the source checkout path for development. Use pip install beeweave for a normal user installation.
