# Installing with pipx
[pipx](https://pypa.github.io/pipx/) is a tool for installing Python CLI applications in isolated environments. It does not require [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/).
## Install Specify CLI
Pin a specific release tag for stability (check [Releases](https://github.com/github/spec-kit/releases) for the latest):
```bash
# Install a specific stable release (recommended — replace vX.Y.Z with the latest tag)
pipx install git+https://github.com/github/spec-kit.git@vX.Y.Z
# Or install latest from main (may include unreleased changes)
pipx install git+https://github.com/github/spec-kit.git
```
## Verify
```bash
specify version
```
## Upgrade
```bash
pipx install --force git+https://github.com/github/spec-kit.git@vX.Y.Z
```
## Uninstall
```bash
pipx uninstall specify-cli
```
