# 🚀 How to Use `npx agentdb` with Frontier Features
## Current Situation
The NEW AgentDB CLI with frontier features (17 commands) is configured in the `agentic-flow` package:
**Package:** `agentic-flow`
**Binary:** `dist/agentdb/cli/agentdb-cli.js`
**Features:** Causal Memory, Reflexion, Skills, Nightly Learner, etc.
## Testing Locally (Before Publishing)
### Option 1: Link the Package Locally
```bash
cd /workspaces/agentic-flow/agentic-flow
# Build the package
npm run build
# Link it globally
npm link
# Now npx agentdb will use your local version
npx agentdb --help
```
### Option 2: Use Node Directly
```bash
cd /workspaces/agentic-flow/agentic-flow
node dist/agentdb/cli/agentdb-cli.js --help
```
## After Publishing to NPM
Once you publish `agentic-flow` package to npm, users can run:
```bash
# Install globally
npm install -g agentic-flow
# Or use npx directly (no install needed)
npx agentdb --help
```
## Publish Checklist
Before publishing to npm:
1. ✅ Verify CLI works locally
```bash
cd /workspaces/agentic-flow/agentic-flow
npm run build
node dist/agentdb/cli/agentdb-cli.js --help
```
2. ✅ Test with npm link
```bash
npm link
npx agentdb --help
```
3. ✅ Update version in package.json
