title: "Quick Start"
description: "Install Strix and run your first security scan"
---
## Prerequisites
- Docker (running)
- An LLM provider API key (OpenAI, Anthropic, or local model)
## Installation
<Tabs>
<Tab title="curl">
```bash
curl -sSL https://strix.ai/install | bash
```
</Tab>
<Tab title="pipx">
```bash
pipx install strix-agent
```
</Tab>
</Tabs>
## Configuration
Set your LLM provider:
```bash
export STRIX_LLM="openai/gpt-5"
export LLM_API_KEY="your-api-key"
```
<Tip>
For best results, use `openai/gpt-5`, `anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5`, or `vertex_ai/gemini-3-pro-preview`.
</Tip>
## Run Your First Scan
```bash
strix --target ./your-app
```
<Note>
First run pulls the Docker sandbox image automatically. Results are saved to `strix_runs/<run-name>`.
</Note>
## Target Types
Strix accepts multiple target types:
```bash
# Local codebase
strix --target ./app-directory
# GitHub repository
strix --target https://github.com/org/repo
# Live web application
strix --target https://your-app.com
# Multiple targets (white-box testing)
strix -t https://github.com/org/repo -t https://your-app.com
```
