Or run the bundled setup script:

Authenticate with one of:

export CASE_API_KEY=sk_case_YOUR_KEY           # env var (best for agents)
casedev auth set-key --api-key sk_case_YOUR_KEY # stored in config
casedev auth login --no-open                    # browser device flow

Verify: casedev doctor --json
