Quick Start

Install from Git Source

Prerequisites

• Git and Rust is installed
• If it’s not installed yet, refer to the prerequisites to set it up.

1. Download Yushi to your local machine

git clone https://github.com/yushi-apps/yushi.git

2. Change directory

cd yushi

3. Install Yushi

cargo install --path cli

4. Create an agent

cargo yushi new my_agent

The directory structure of an agent is as follows:

.
├── Cargo.toml
├── src/
│   ├── main.js
├── .yushi/
│   ├── main_prompt.md
│   ├── model.toml
│   ├── agents/

An agent is simply a regular Cargo project with a .yushi configuration file.

• main_prompt.md is Agent Prompt file，write in Markdown format.
• model. tomlis the model configuration file for the agent
• agents/ directory contains sub-agents, each written in Markdown—one file per sub-agent.

5. Configure the agent

cd my_agent

Navigate to the agent directory and edit .yushi/model.toml to set the model parameters. By default, DeepSeek is used—just fill in your api_key and you're ready to go.

Edit .yushi/main_prompt.md to define the agent; if the file is empty, the LLM model will be used directly.

6. Build and run

cargo yushi build --release
./my_agent/target/release/my_agent

After the build finishes, copy the executable my_agent/target/release/my_agent to your target device and run it.
