Quickstart	Get started with SessionBase in minutes

Get started in three steps

Install SessionBase and start sharing your first AI session.

Step 1: Install the CLI

Install the SessionBase CLI globally using npm:

```bash
npm install -g sessionbase-cli
```

After installation, authenticate with your SessionBase account:

```bash
sessionbase auth login
```

This will open your browser to complete the authentication process.

Step 2: Share your first session

Share an AI chat session with your team:

```bash
sessionbase share /path/to/your/chat.md
```

Or pipe content directly:

```bash
echo "Your AI conversation" | sessionbase share --stdin
```

After uploading, you'll receive a shareable link that you can send to team members:

```
Session shared: https://sessionbase.dev/s/abc123
```

Step 3: Explore features

View all your shared sessions:

sessionbase ls
