# Install pulumi with Homebrew, apk, chocolatey, MacPorts, Nix, pacman, scoop, winget Cloud native development platform. Version 3.255.0 via Homebrew; verified 2026-07-28. Also installable with nix: nix profile install nixpkgs#pulumi. ## Install ```sh sudo av install brew:pulumi ``` ## Agent safety answer pulumi is an infrastructure-as-code CLI that can mutate cloud resources from local state and credentials. - **Credential access:** Reads cloud credentials, Pulumi tokens, stack config, and secret providers. - **Remote mutation:** Can create, update, and destroy cloud infrastructure. - **Publish/artifact risk:** Can deploy application infrastructure and write stack outputs. - **Recommended control:** Gate pulumi up, destroy, refresh with writes, and config secret changes. - **Agent-use guidance:** Allow preview only by default; require approval for any state-changing operation.
