## Install the Stripe CLI

Install the Stripe CLI using the installation script for your operating system, or with npm.

When you install using a script, automatic updates are enabled by default. The CLI checks for newer versions as you use it and automatically installs updates within the same major version. To disable automatic updates, set the environment variable `STRIPE_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1` or add `auto_update = false` to `~/.config/stripe/config.toml`.

Once the CLI is installed, you can [log in to Stripe](https://docs.stripe.com/cli/login.md), install [agent tooling](https://docs.stripe.com/cli/agent/setup.md), or set up [autocompletion](https://docs.stripe.com/cli/completion.md).

> For more installation options for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Docker, check the [Stripe CLI readme](https://github.com/stripe/stripe-cli#installation) on GitHub.
