Self-host with the CLI

This is the run-it-yourself path: you get a real project and the blocks you're licensed for, and you run it on your own machine or server. Want it live with nothing to install? Start a hosted workspace instead.

1 · Install the CLI

npm i -g @ai-blocks/cli --registry=https://registry.mltg.net

2 · Sign in — prints a code, then approve it at https://mltg.net/device

ai-blocks login
ai-blocks list          # the blocks your account may install

3 · Scaffold a project — writes package.json, src/boot.ts, a docker-compose.yml (Postgres) and an .npmrc

ai-blocks init my-shop --modules ecommerce
cd my-shop
ai-blocks install ecommerce

4 · Run it — now it's your app, on your infrastructure

docker compose up -d db
pnpm install
pnpm dev                # your store is live at http://localhost:9430

Installing a block gives you the code, not a running site — step 4 is what starts it. While in beta, a licence for every block is granted free on first login.
