Open-source finance terminal. Fast, keyboard-driven, and extensible.
Desktop app for macOS and Windows. Terminal UI for macOS, Linux, and Windows.
Download desktop · Install the TUI
Gloomberb has two ways in:
| Surface | Best for | How it runs |
|---|---|---|
| Desktop app | A polished app window, pop-out panes, OS shortcuts, and built-in updates | Published for macOS and Windows. It also installs a gloomberb terminal command for the TUI. |
| Terminal UI | Fast keyboard workflows inside your terminal, SSH/dev boxes, Linux machines, and script-friendly setups | Runs with gloomberb on macOS, Linux, and Windows. |
Both share the same command language, plugin system, market data surfaces, portfolios, watchlists, alerts, notes, and AI tools.
Install the desktop app and the gloomberb terminal command:
brew install --cask vincelwt/tap/gloomberb
# or
curl -fsSL gloomberb.com/install | bashBoth install Gloomberb.app and a gloomberb command that runs the TUI through the app bundle, so the bundled runtime is stored once.
Prefer a direct download?
Install the standalone TUI binary:
curl -fsSL gloomberb.com/install | bashThis installs gloomberb to ~/.local/bin by default. A Linux desktop package is not published yet.
Install the desktop app:
The installer supports Windows 11 on x64 and ARM64. On ARM64, the desktop app and its bundled gloomberb terminal command use Windows' built-in x64 emulation.
For a terminal-only setup on x64, install Bun and use the package:
bun install -g gloomberbAlready have Bun installed on any supported OS?
bun install -g gloomberbThen run:
gloomberbOn macOS and Windows, desktop updates replace the installed app in place and keep the terminal command pointing at the updated runtime. Homebrew users can also update through brew upgrade --cask gloomberb.
For the best terminal experience, use a Kitty-compatible terminal such as Ghostty, Kitty, or WezTerm.
Open command mode with Ctrl+P, then type a command. Press ` to open ticker search directly.

Running gloomberb with no arguments launches the terminal UI. Normal commands run through a headless CLI path; use gloomberb launch-ui when a script should explicitly open the UI.
Human-readable output is the default. Automation can opt into structured output with --json, --csv, or --ndjson. JSON output favors the richest fetched model available and includes display-column metadata when a command has table columns; CSV and NDJSON use the command's tabular row view. Common global flags include --limit, --refresh, --quiet, --no-color, --dry-run, and --yes.

Commands that need a signed-in cloud session may return auth_required; sign-in, account management, and chat workflows are still handled in the app UI for now.
Everything from the portfolio list to broker integrations is a plugin. Plugins can add panes, tabs, columns, command bar commands, CLI commands, status bar widgets, and data providers.
Core plugin areas include:
- Portfolios, watchlists, manual entry, and broker connections
- Ticker details, quotes, charts, options, filings, holders, insiders, and research
- News, Substack reader feeds, market movers, global indices, sectors, FX, earnings, macro data, and yield curves
- Prediction markets, alerts, notes, chat, AI screeners, and external plugins
See PLUGINS.md for the plugin API and the shared UI surface available through gloomberb/components.
