Install the DeepVista CLI
The DeepVista Claude Code plugin requires the deepvista CLI to be installed
separately. Without it, the plugin's SessionStart hook exits silently and
no catalog skills sync.
Install
uv tool install 'deepvista-cli[ui]' # preferred
# or
pip install 'deepvista-cli[ui]'
The [ui] extra adds the optional terminal UI (deepvista ui). Omit the
suffix for a CLI-only install.
Authenticate
deepvista auth login # opens a browser for OAuth
deepvista auth status # verify
Trigger a first sync
Once the CLI is installed and authenticated, force the plugin's catalog sync without waiting for the next session start:
/refresh-skills
Full reference
The canonical install + auth + profile reference lives with the CLI itself:
skills/deepvista/reference/shared.md.
Load it for profile switching, headless-auth codes, credential paths, and
global-flag rules.
