Nika Homebrew Tap

Official Homebrew tap for Nika: Intent as Code, the workflow language for AI: one file, 4 verbs, one binary. Sovereign, local-first (open language + single-binary Rust engine).

Status: the formula tracks the latest tagged release — the exact pin lives in Formula/nika.rb (this README never repeats it; a repeated number is a number that rots). The language envelope nika: v1 is already stable.

Install

brew install supernovae-st/tap/nika

Or tap first, then install:

brew tap supernovae-st/tap
brew install nika

Update

brew update
brew upgrade nika

Uninstall

brew uninstall nika
brew untap supernovae-st/tap

What you get

Prebuilt binaries for macOS (arm64, x86_64) and Linux (arm64, x86_64) at the formula's pinned version. Run nika --help once installed.

First run

nika welcome         # the mirror: what this machine has · where to start
nika doctor          # environment + editor/agent readiness (the fixes)
nika init            # repo-local schema + AGENTS.md

Homebrew does not mutate editor configs automatically. If your installed nika --help lists wire, run nika wire cursor or nika wire all for explicit MCP setup; otherwise use the editor extension setup.
