Install
Prerequisites and the fastest path into a CELLAS starter project.
Requirements
- Node.js
^22.13.0 || >=24.0.0 - A package manager: pnpm 9.x (recommended), npm, yarn, or bun

Do not clone the monorepo for your first PASS. Scaffold a starter:
pnpm create cellas my-docs
cd my-docs
pnpm installThen continue with Quick Start (verify → certify → PASS).
Official starters

pnpm create cellas my-plugin --template pluginContributor path — CELLAS monorepo
Clone only if you are developing CELLAS itself:
git clone https://github.com/CELLASHQ/cellas.git
cd cellas
pnpm install
pnpm build
pnpm exec cellas --helpFull workspace validation:
pnpm run validateLocal create rehearsal (before npm publish):
node packages/create-cellas/dist/bin.js my-docs --yes --no-installNext
