Problem
bin/install-latest.sh resolves the latest release via unauthenticated GitHub API calls; from shared/datacenter egress IPs the quota is exhausted (same root cause as #411) and the install fails:
API rate limit exceeded ... set GITHUB_TOKEN to avoid rate limits
Observed on a datacenter Ubuntu host, 2026-07-25.
Fix
Workaround
- On any authenticated machine:
gh api repos/brevdev/brev-cli/releases/latest -> asset URL
- On the target:
curl -fsSL -o /tmp/brev.tgz <url> && tar -xzf /tmp/brev.tgz -C /tmp && sudo mv /tmp/brev /usr/local/bin/
