Try Now:

There are two main ways for quickly running Toolkit: local and cloud. See the specific instructions given below.

Local

You will need to have Docker, Docker-compose >= 2.22, and Poetry installed. Go here for a more detailed setup.
Note: to include community tools when building locally, set the INSTALL_COMMUNITY_DEPS build arg in the docker-compose.yml to true.

Both options will serve the frontend at http://localhost:4000.

Using make

Use the provided Makefile to simplify and automate your development workflow with Cohere Toolkit, including Docker Compose management, testing, linting, and environment setup.

git clone https://github.com/cohere-ai/cohere-toolkit.git
cd cohere-toolkit
make first-run

Docker Compose only

Use Docker Compose directly if you want to quickly spin up and manage your container environment without the additional automation provided by the Makefile.

git clone https://github.com/cohere-ai/cohere-toolkit.git
cd cohere-toolkit
docker compose up
docker compose run --build backend alembic -c src/backend/alembic.ini upgrade head

Cloud
