npm i -g @duckmind/dm@latest
DuckMind (dm) is a minimal, fast AI coworker that runs in your terminal. No UI overhead. Just plan, run, and get things done.
Requires Node.js 22.19.0 or newer for bundled web access (including undici).
If your Node.js is older, upgrade it before installing or updating DM.
Install @duckmind/dm, not a platform package for a different OS.

Windows Setup
DM requires a bash shell on Windows. It checks these locations in order:
shellPathin the global~/.dm/agent/settings.json- Git Bash at
C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe - Every
bash.exefound onPATH(for example Cygwin, MSYS2, or WSL)
For most users, Git for Windows is sufficient. To use a custom shell:
{
"shellPath": "C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\bash.exe"
}
