# Quickstart

> Get started with Actionbook in minutes

Goal: run your first `actionbook browser` workflow with a working local setup in under 2 minutes.

## Quick Setup (CLI)

1. Install the CLI:

```bash theme={null}
npm install -g @actionbookdev/cli
```

Requires Node.js >= v18. Upgrade with `npm install -g @actionbookdev/cli@latest`.

2. Run the setup wizard (recommended):

```bash theme={null}
actionbook setup
```

`setup` configures API key, browser mode, health checks, and optional agent skill installation in one flow.

3. Run your first browser commands:

```bash theme={null}
actionbook browser start --set-session-id s1
actionbook browser goto "https://example.com" --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser snapshot --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser close --session s1
```

If `snapshot` returns the page structure, your local setup is ready.

## What You Have
