  1. Verify installation:
brv --version
  1. Authenticate
brv login
  1. Init
cd to/your/project
brv init
… and you can start to create the context space for your coding agent right away. Check out some of our simple getting-started examples: Hello, world

Supported Agentic Coding Platforms

ByteRover supports many agentic coding platforms, including Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex CLI. The ByteRover client is a Command Line Interface (CLI) with a standard design, making it compatible with many LLMs across different agentic coding platforms.

​
How does it work?

ByteRover takes your context, stores it in a shared memory layer, and returns it to you and your agent whenever needed. Your team’s context lives in a shared memory layer in the cloud. This creates a central place for you and your team—so you don’t have to worry when switching coding agents. No need to mess with context migration when you move from one agent to another.
