# CLI getting started

CLI getting started — install, login, first command.

```bash
pip install layerlens --extra-index-url https://sdk.layerlens.ai/package
export LAYERLENS_STRATIX_API_KEY="..."
layerlens models list --limit 5
```

Or interactive:

```bash
layerlens login
```

This prompts for a key and stores it in your CLI config.
