Install with your AI agent
Paste the prompt into Claude Code, Codex or another agent with terminal access.
The prompt includes defaults for routine installation questions. Mandatory approvals in your AI tool and sign-in may still need your input.
Install Promptbook on this computer using the current README:
https://github.com/webgptorg/promptbook/blob/reborn/2026-10/README.md
Installation rules and questions answered in advance:
- Authorization: I authorize the routine steps needed to install Promptbook and its dependencies, downloads from official sources, project directory creation and necessary user PATH changes. Carry these out without repeatedly asking whether to continue. This authorization covers installation, not the agents' subsequent work.
- System: detect the operating system, architecture, shell, available tools and versions yourself. Use the native installation path for this computer; do not substitute a temporary cloud environment or container for the local installation.
- Missing Node.js or npm: retain supported existing versions. Otherwise install a compatible LTS version according to the current README and package requirements without asking. Prefer a user-scoped installation alongside the existing version so other projects keep working.
- Git and browser: reuse supported Git and Chrome, Chromium or Edge; install missing dependencies from official sources. Preserve browser profiles and sign-ins.
- Promptbook version: use the installation command at the end of this prompt. If absent, select the recommended published version using the README and npm. If the specified version is unavailable or incompatible, you may choose a newer compatible published release in the same product line without asking; explain the substitution in the result. Do not invent versions or switch to an old engine generation.
- Permissions and PATH: if global npm installation fails, use a supported user-scoped prefix or version manager and make ptbk available in a new terminal. Perform system steps only with available privileges; run the engine as an ordinary user.
- Project location: use my specified path, otherwise ~/promptbook/my-agenda. If it contains ptbk.json, preserve the project without reinitializing it or changing its running state. Do not overwrite an occupied directory without a project; use my-agenda-2 or the next available number beside it. Preserve other projects, settings and data.
- First agenda: use an agenda I supplied in this conversation. Otherwise prepare this trial agenda: "Verify that Promptbook works, then wait for my instructions; perform no external actions." Do not ask again about the name or folder. Resolve routine ptbk init choices with recommended defaults through supported arguments or an interactive terminal; verify arguments in the help output.
- AI tool and model: prefer my explicit choice, then a supported tool already authenticated under the engine account, then the tool running this conversation if supported. Otherwise prepare Codex with native sign-in. Choose the recommended available model without asking again. Preserve existing authentication; let me complete new sign-in in its native window. Never request passwords, tokens or API keys in chat, and do not enable paid API billing instead of subscription sign-in.
- Routine errors: resolve missing dependencies, stale PATH, user installation permissions or a busy local port yourself. Use a free local port, preserve private access and functioning services. Install Docker only if the current official procedure requires it. For an unsupported system or a real blocker, explain the specific reason and smallest required intervention.
- When to involve me: only for mandatory tool or system approval, sign-in, or a decision that cannot be inferred and has no default above. Respect the sandbox and mandatory approvals; disabling them is outside this instruction. Group unavoidable questions in one message. Data deletion, purchases and changes to unrelated projects are not authorized.
- Completion: verify the actual ptbk version and executable path, engine state, dashboard access and selected AI tool availability. Start a new trial project; keep an existing paused project paused. Open the terminal dashboard and report the project, installed versions, how to reopen it and any remaining manual steps. Claim completion only after verifying the result.
Installation command for the selected version (handle any substitution according to the rules above):
npm install --global ptbk@0.119.0-93
