About

Sprites CLI lets developers and agent users manage remote Linux environments from a terminal.

  • Create environments, run commands, and open an interactive console.
  • Keep files between sessions and use filesystem checkpoints and restores.
  • Manage environments through the CLI alongside the service’s API and SDKs.

The service requires sign-in and bills resource usage. Install with brew install --cask sprites, then run sprite login. The current macOS cask supports Apple Silicon.

Uninstall Sprites CLI and optional data cleanup

Uninstall command
brew uninstall --cask sprites

A regular uninstall removes the app and keeps its settings and caches.

Deep clean (optional)

Uninstall command
brew uninstall --zap --cask sprites

--zap also deletes the settings, caches and other files listed in the Homebrew definition. They can include data shared with other apps and cannot be restored, and it does not guarantee that nothing is left. Back up any data you need first. To keep settings and caches, leave out --zap.
