Getting Started

Terminal window
curl -fsSL cinch.dev/install.sh | sh

This installs the cinch CLI binary to /usr/local/bin.

On the relay (or public instance), generate a pairing token:

Terminal window
cinch auth pair

On each client machine, pair using the token:

Terminal window
cinch auth pair <TOKEN>

Pipe any command’s output to the relay:

Terminal window
echo "hello from $(hostname)" | cinch push

On another machine:

Terminal window
cinch pull
# → hello from my-server

Run cinchd to have incoming clips automatically land in your Mac clipboard:

Terminal window
cinchd
