Windows

Install from PowerShell:

irm https://openinterpreter.com/install.ps1 | iex

Restart the terminal, then verify:

interpreter --version

WSL

WSL is a good choice when your project already uses Linux tooling. Install with the macOS/Linux command inside WSL:

curl -fsSL https://openinterpreter.com/install | sh

Paths and Shells

Use the same shell and path style your project expects. Native Windows projects should use Windows paths and PowerShell conventions. WSL projects should use Linux paths and tools.

Sandbox Notes

Native Windows sandboxing has different enforcement details than macOS and Linux. If you need Linux-style sandbox behavior, use WSL. For trusted local repos, start with the default permissions and loosen only when the task needs it.
