Answer a RouterOS question by asking RouterOS. quickchr boots a real, disposable MikroTik CHR router on the local machine under QEMU — no hardware, no cloud, gone when you remove it — and centrs drives it. Covers the shell path end to end: the add/start/stop/shutdown/remove lifecycle, getting the shell back (--no-wait; --bg does not), getting REST endpoints and credentials out of a machine, L2 links between two VMs, provisioning (device-mode) that applies at first boot and the set route after…
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
# CHR from the shell: quickchr CLI + centrs quickchr ([`@tikoci/quickchr`](https://github.com/tikoci/quickchr), CLI + Bun/TS library) downloads a MikroTik CHR image, boots it under QEMU, and hands you a router. This skill is the **shell-first** path: you have a terminal, you want a router to interrogate, and the answer will be quoted as shell + RouterOS commands (e.g. in a `forum.mikrotik.com` reply). If you are writing a `bun:test` harness that imports `QuickCHR`, use the **routeros-tikoci-quickchr** skill instead — one scheme per task, never both.[^split] Behavior below is pinned to **0.5.2**. Install with `bun install -g @tikoci/quickchr@0.5.2`, or invoke `bunx @tikoci/quickchr@0.5.2 <command>`. Check yours with `quickchr --version`. Where 0.4.8 and earlier differ in a way that can hurt you, the text says so inline; the rest of the version history lives in the footnotes.[^pin] One limit to keep in view: a CHR booted this way runs the **free** license (`quickchr get <name>` shows `Level: free`), which MikroTik caps at **1 Mbps upload per interface** — every other RouterOS feature is unrestricted. Config, API and CLI grounding are unaffected; a throughput …

How to install
mdr add tikoci/routeros-skills/routeros-tikoci-quickchr-cli@sha256:1b9b13f2ec781597The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261107.1982e24, 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.
