CLI Reference

Installation Command

npx @robbiesrobotics/alice-agents

Installs A.L.I.C.E. agent files into your current OpenClaw or NemoClaw workspace and prompts for a Pro license key (press Enter to skip for Starter).

CLI Flags

| Flag | What It Does | |------|--------------| | --yes | Accept all defaults, skip prompts | | --update | Update to the latest version | | --uninstall | Remove A.L.I.C.E. agents | | --doctor | Run health check and diagnostics | | --version | Print the installed version |

Flag Details

--yes

npx @robbiesrobotics/alice-agents --yes

Accepts all installer defaults and skips interactive prompts. Useful for scripted or automated installs. You can still enter a license key when prompted — the flag just suppresses non-essential questions.

--update

npx @robbiesrobotics/alice-agents --update

Pulls the latest version of A.L.I.C.E. and updates agent files in place. Your license key, PLAYBOOK.md, LEARNINGS.md, MEMORY.md, FEEDBACK.md, and USER.md files are preserved. System files (SOUL.md, AGENTS.md, IDENTITY.md, TOOLS.md) are refreshed.

--uninstall

npx @robbiesrobotics/alice-agents --uninstall

Removes A.L.I.C.E. agent files from your workspace. Does not affect OpenClaw or NemoClaw itself, your model configuration, or any other workspace files.

--doctor

npx @robbiesrobotics/alice-agents --doctor

Runs a full health check and reports:

  • Whether OpenClaw (or NemoClaw) is detected on the system
  • Which agents are installed and active
  • License tier validation (Starter or Pro)
  • Any missing agent files or broken configuration
  • Runtime version compatibility

Always run --doctor first when diagnosing problems. See Troubleshooting for how to use it.

--version

npx @robbiesrobotics/alice-agents --version

Prints the currently installed version of A.L.I.C.E.

Examples

# Fresh install (interactive)
npx @robbiesrobotics/alice-agents

# Fresh install (non-interactive, Starter)
npx @robbiesrobotics/alice-agents --yes

# Update to latest
npx @robbiesrobotics/alice-agents --update

# Diagnose issues
npx @robbiesrobotics/alice-agents --doctor

# Check version
npx @robbiesrobotics/alice-agents --version

# Clean uninstall
npx @robbiesrobotics/alice-agents --uninstall

Using Agents After Install

Once installed, agents run inside your OpenClaw or NemoClaw session. There's no separate CLI for interacting with agents — just open your runtime and talk to A.L.I.C.E.:

"Hey A.L.I.C.E., who's on the team?"
