Install

The CLI is a Node package published on npm as papermark.

Requirements

• Node 24 or newer. The CLI uses recent platform features and pins engines.node: ">=24". Older Node versions will refuse to install. Check yours with node --version.

Install

npm install -g papermark

pnpm add -g papermark

yarn global add papermark

bun install -g papermark

Then verify:

$ papermark --version
0.1.0

If papermark: command not found, your global npm bin directory isn't on PATH. npm config get prefix prints where global packages land — add <prefix>/bin to PATH.

No-install (one-off)

npx papermark documents list

npx downloads the package on demand and runs it, so this is fine for trying things out. For anything you'll run more than twice, do the global install — it's faster and works offline.

Upgrading

npm install -g papermark@latest

The CLI follows semver; minor versions don't break the output contract. Major versions are announced in the changelog.

Uninstalling

npm uninstall -g papermark
rm -rf ~/.config/papermark   # macOS / Linux: drop stored credentials
