The tap distributes kage as a Cask (prebuilt binary), not a Formula, so brew needs --cask to find it. Without the flag brew errors out with "No available formula or cask with the name kage".

| Installation | Install kage from Go, Homebrew, Scoop, a release archive, a Linux package, or the container image, and point it at a browser. | 20 |
kage is a single binary. Pick whichever channel suits you.
Go
go install github.com/tamnd/kage/cmd/kage@latest
Homebrew (macOS)
brew install --cask tamnd/tap/kage
The cask installs the prebuilt macOS binary. On Linux, use the packages below or
go install.
Scoop (Windows)
scoop bucket add tamnd https://github.com/tamnd/scoop-bucket
scoop install kage
Linux (apt and dnf)
A signed apt and dnf repository tracks every release, so apt upgrade and
dnf upgrade keep kage current.
# Debian, Ubuntu
curl -fsSL https://tamnd.github.io/linux-repo/gpg.key \
| sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/tamnd.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/tamnd.gpg] https://tamnd.github.io/linux-repo/apt stable main" \
| sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/tamnd.list
sudo apt update && sudo apt install kage
# Fedora, RHEL
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://tamnd.github.io/linux-repo/dnf/tamnd.repo
sudo dnf install kage
Release archives and Linux packages
Every release attaches tar.gz
archives (and a .zip for Windows) for Linux, macOS, Windows, and FreeBSD, plus
.deb, .rpm, and .apk packages and a checksums.txt with a cosign
signature. Download the one for your platform, extract kage, and put it on your
PATH. To install a package directly without the repo above:
# Debian/Ubuntu
sudo dpkg -i kage_*_amd64.deb
# Fedora/RHEL
sudo rpm -i kage-*.x86_64.rpm
Container
The image bundles Chromium, so it needs nothing else:
docker run -v "$PWD/out:/out" ghcr.io/tamnd/kage clone example.com
The mirror lands in ./out/example.com/ on your host.
You need a browser
kage drives a real Chrome to render pages. Outside the container image, it needs
Chrome or Chromium available on the machine. It looks for a system install
automatically (Google Chrome on macOS and Windows, google-chrome/chromium on
Linux). To use a specific binary:
kage clone example.com --chrome /path/to/chromium
# or
export KAGE_CHROME=/path/to/chromium
If no browser is found, kage's launcher can download a private copy of Chromium on first use.
Next: the quick start.
