CLI Manual Setup

If you prefer not to use the Settings panel, you can set up the CLI manually.

Option A: Self-install from the CLI binary

Locate the CLI binary inside the Bobcorn application bundle and run the install command directly:

macOS

node /Applications/Bobcorn.app/Contents/Resources/app.asar.unpacked/out/cli/index.cjs install

Windows (PowerShell)

node "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Programs\Bobcorn\resources\app.asar.unpacked\out\cli\index.cjs" install

This registers the bobcorn command to your PATH automatically.

Option B: Add to PATH manually

Create a wrapper script that invokes the CLI binary with Node.js:

macOS / Linux (~/.local/bin/bobcorn)

#!/bin/sh
exec node "/Applications/Bobcorn.app/Contents/Resources/app.asar.unpacked/out/cli/index.cjs" "$@"

Windows (%LOCALAPPDATA%\Bobcorn\cli\bobcorn.cmd)

@echo off
node "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Bobcorn\resources\app.asar.unpacked\out\cli\index.cjs" %*

Make sure the wrapper directory is in your PATH. On macOS/Linux, add ~/.local/bin to your shell profile. On Windows, add the wrapper directory to your User PATH environment variable.
