CLI Commands

Install, uninstall, and configure brakit from the command line.

brakit install

npx brakit install

Sets up brakit in your project. This command:

Auto-detects your framework (Next.js, Remix, Nuxt, Vite, Astro, Express, Fastify)
Adds brakit as a dev dependency
Creates a one-line instrumentation file for your framework

Framework	Instrumentation file
Next.js	src/instrumentation.ts with register() export
Nuxt	server/plugins/brakit.ts
Remix / Generic	import "brakit" prepended to entry file

After installing, just start your dev server as usual:

npm run dev

Brakit hooks in automatically and serves the dashboard at /__brakit on the same port as your running app.

npx brakit uninstall

Removes the instrumentation file and uninstalls the brakit package from your project. Your app goes back to exactly how it was before installation.
