guardrails tools install

Install pinned tools (all supported tools when none are named)

Synopsis

Download, verify and install the pinned version of each named tool into the data dir, or of every tool supported on this platform when none are named. Tools already installed are skipped.

Hooks install tools in the background on first use; run this to do it up front, as the Stop hook and CI do.

guardrails tools install [tool...] [flags]

      --config string     config file for all your repos (default ~/.config/guardrails/config.yaml)
      --data-dir string   where guardrails keeps state (default $CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA, else ~/.local/share/guardrails)
