    From the README

    The open source AI research agent.

    The one-line installer fetches the latest tagged release. To pin a version, pass it explicitly, for example curl -fsSL https://feynman.is/install | bash -s -- 0.2.35.

    The installer downloads a standalone native bundle with its own pinned Node.js runtime and verifies the release SHA-256 before replacing an existing installation.

    To upgrade the standalone app later, rerun the installer. feynman update only refreshes installed Pi packages inside Feynman's environment; it does not replace the standalone runtime bundle itself.

    To uninstall the standalone app, remove the launcher and runtime bundle, then optionally remove ~/.feynman if you also want to delete settings, workbench app state, sessions, and installed package state. If you also want to delete alphaXiv login state, remove ~/.ahub. See the installation guide for platform-specific paths.

    npm alternative (uses your local Node.js runtime):

    To update an npm installation, run npm install -g @advaitpaliwal/feynman@latest.

    If you installed the old scoped package, migrate once:

    The command remains feynman; the native install commands above are unchanged. See the installation guide for Node.js requirements and uninstall instructions.
