Use when installing or running the Inngest CLI and Dev Server for local development, local testing, serve endpoint debugging, Docker or Docker Compose setup, MCP configuration, self-hosted `inngest start`, or deployment workflow checks. Covers `inngest dev`, `inngest start`, auto-discovery, config files, environment variables, `@inngest/test`, local event sending, platform gotchas, and production/self-hosted server flags.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Inngest CLI

Master the Inngest CLI for local development, testing, and self-hosted production. The CLI provides the Dev Server — a fully-featured, open-source local version of the Inngest Platform.

> **These skills are focused on TypeScript.** For Python or Go, refer to the [Inngest documentation](https://www.inngest.com/llms.txt) for language-specific guidance. Core concepts apply across all languages.

Use this skill for CLI setup, Dev Server workflows, local testing, Docker, MCP, and self-hosted server operations. For run/trace inspection through `inngest api`, use `inngest-api-cli` when available.

## Installation

```bash
# npx (recommended — always latest)
npx inngest-cli@latest dev

# yarn
yarn dlx inngest-cli@latest dev

# pnpm
pnpm dlx inngest-cli@latest dev

# Global install
npm install -g inngest-cli

# Docker
docker pull inngest/inngest
```

If your npm configuration disables lifecycle scripts and the binary is missing, retry with `npx --ignore-scripts=false inngest-cli@latest dev`. Bun does not support lifecycle scripts by default, so prefer `npx` for the CLI even in Bun projects.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add inngest/inngest-skills/inngest-cli@sha256:aaf521c07e96f8bf

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260928.082798a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
