The Anaconda CLI (ana) is a standalone binary that provides authentication, tool management, and package source configuration for Anaconda products.
ana is available for macOS (Apple Silicon), Linux (x86_64 and aarch64), and Windows (x86_64).

Install

Requires PowerShell 5.1 or later.
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://anaconda.sh/install.ps1 | iex"
To verify the installation, run:
ana --version

Bootstrap

The installer runs ana bootstrap automatically. This installs companion tools that enable the ana org and ana mcp commands. If you skipped bootstrap during installation, run it manually:
ana bootstrap
Running bootstrap again after the initial install has no effect if the tools are already present. To see what was installed, run ana tool list. For more on managing tools, see Tools.
The Anaconda CLI does not install conda. If you need conda, see Getting started with Anaconda.

Authenticate

ana login
This starts a browser-based OAuth flow and stores your credentials in the keyring. Once complete, verify your session:
ana whoami
For API key login, CI/CD configuration, and other authentication methods, see Authentication.
