+# Simplify AlgoKit CLI distribution (2026)
+
+- **Status:** Decided — Option A (uvget-style installer + `uv tool install algokit`)
+- **Date:** 2026-02-05
+- **Why now:** The current pipeline needs Apple Developer + Canonical + Winget community workflows, and still ships a binary that does not help users get Python when they open a template in an IDE. PyInstaller was the most mature choice at the time, but by 2026 there are solid alternatives.
+
+## Goal
+
+- Reduce distribution surface area and account overhead.
+- Make installs handle Python for users.
+- Keep migration non-disruptive for existing users.
+
+## Current moving parts (just enough map)
+
+- Build + publish binaries: `.github/workflows/build-binaries.yaml`, `.github/actions/build-binaries/*`, `.github/workflows/publish-release-packages.yaml`.
+- PyInstaller packaging: `pyproject.toml` (`package_*` tasks + dependency), `scripts/package_mac.sh`, `scripts/package_windows.bat`.
+- Channel scripts: `scripts/update-brew-cask.sh`, `scripts/snap/create-snapcraft-yaml.sh`, `scripts/winget/*`.
+- PyInstaller-only tests: `tests/portability/test_pyinstaller_binary.py`, `pyproject.toml` marker `pyinstaller_binary_tests`.
+- Update hints: `src/algokit/core/config_commands/version_prompt.py` (distribution-method + update command).
+- Install/tool checks: `src/algokit/cli/doctor.py` (pipx/brew/winget).
+- Docs: `README.md`, `docs/tutorials/intro.md`, `docs/features/*`.
+
+## Alternatives that exist now (2026)
+
+- `pyapp` (https://ofek.dev/pyapp/latest/) for dynamic Python resolution in binaries.
+- `uvget`-style installers (https://github.com/aorumbayev/uvget) to bootstrap uv + Python + tool install.
+- Other packaging options: Nuitka, PEX, Shiv (less relevant if we stop shipping binaries).
+
+## Option A: uvget-style installer + `uv tool install algokit`
+
+Single bash + pwsh entrypoint that fetches uv, pulls Python 3.12, then installs AlgoKit with `uv tool install`. This becomes the default path; brew/winget/snap stay but are marked legacy and removed next major.
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+  U[User] --> I["Universal installer<br/>bash / pwsh"]
+  I --> UV["Install uv"]
+  UV --> PY["Install Python 3.12"]
+  PY --> A["uv tool install algokit"]
+  A --> CLI["algokit (uv-managed)"]
+  NPM["npm wrapper (nice to have)"] --> I
+  L[Legacy channels<br/>brew/winget/snap] -->|phase out| X["Removed next major"]
+```
+
+**What changes (codebase impact)**
+
+- CI/CD: add a job that publishes installer scripts + checksums/signatures; keep `build-binaries` + `publish-release-packages` during the legacy period, then remove in the next major.
+- Packaging: remove `pyinstaller` from `pyproject.toml` and drop `package_*` tasks after the legacy period; retire `scripts/package_*` at the same time.
+- Channels: remove/retire `scripts/update-brew-cask.sh`, `scripts/snap/*`, `scripts/winget/*` once legacy period ends.
+- Runtime hints: update `src/algokit/core/config_commands/version_prompt.py` to include `uv` update guidance (and add a new distribution-method for `uv` installs).
+- Doctor + docs: update `src/algokit/cli/doctor.py`, `README.md`, `docs/tutorials/intro.md`, `docs/features/*` to prefer uv and mark brew/winget/snap as legacy.
+- Tests: replace `tests/portability/test_pyinstaller_binary.py` with installer smoke tests (e.g., run the script, verify `algokit doctor` / `algokit init`).
+- Internal tool resolution: migrate pipx-based helpers (typed client generation, compiler installs, tealer install, poetry bootstrap) to uv equivalents (`uv tool run` / `uvx`).
+- CLI update command: add `algokit update` behind a feature flag. Initially no-op or hidden; once binaries are removed, it becomes the default update path and runs `uv tool upgrade algokit`. If a legacy binary install is detected (via binary mode + distribution-method), it can launch a migration wizard on startup that points to the universal installer script and offers to install the legacy version first (nice to have).
+- npm channel: publish a small npm wrapper that invokes the universal installer (nice to have, easy once Option A exists).
+
+**Smooth migration for existing brew/winget/snap users**
+
+- Phase 1: keep publishing binaries, but add a deprecation note in docs + release notes + `algokit doctor` output for those distribution methods.
+- Phase 2: add explicit upgrade guidance in CLI (`algokit version-prompt` message for brew/winget/snap users pointing at the new install command).
+- Phase 3 (next major): stop new package manager releases, keep uninstall guidance; optionally publish a last “bridge” release that only shows the migration message.
+
+**Pros**
+
+- One installer path, fewer accounts and CI steps.
+- Solves “binary but no Python in IDE” by owning Python install.
+- Easier to support consistent behavior across OSes.
+
+**Cons**
+
+- Requires trust in a bootstrap script + network access.
+- Adds uv as a required bootstrap dependency.
+- Needs careful messaging to avoid churn for existing users.
+
+## Option B: keep binaries, move to `pyapp` + curl + GPG-signed releases
+
+Drop brew/winget/snap; ship signed binaries via GH releases and a curl-based installer. `pyapp` handles Python resolution at runtime.
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+  R[Release] --> B["Build per-OS binaries"]
+  B --> S["Codesign + GPG sign"]
+  S --> GH["GitHub Releases"]
+  U[User] --> C["curl install script"]
+  C --> GH
+  C --> P["pyapp resolves Python"]
+  P --> CLI["algokit (binary)"]
+```
+
+**Pros**
+
+- Fewer distribution channels and less package manager overhead.
+- Python resolution is handled by `pyapp` (better than today’s binaries).
+
+**Cons**
+
+- Still a binary pipeline; still per-OS builds and likely code signing on macOS.
+- Update experience is still manual unless we build a self-update story.
+- Might still be less flexible than uv-driven installs for toolchain workflows.
+
+## Option C: keep current binaries, switch pipx to `uv tool install`
+
+Leave distribution as-is, but move pip-based installs from pipx to uv. This is the smallest change.
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+  R[Release] --> B["Build pyinstaller binaries"]
+  B --> CH["brew / winget / snap"]
+  U[User] --> CH
+  U --> P["uv tool install (pip path)"]
+  P --> CLI["algokit (pip/uv)"]
+  CH --> CLI2["algokit (binary)"]
+```
+
+**What changes**
+
+- Update `src/algokit/core/utils.py` + call sites that use pipx for tool resolution (typed client generation, compiler install, tealer install, poetry bootstrap).
+- Update tests and docs that reference pipx (e.g., `docs/features/compile.md`, `docs/features/generate.md`, `README.md`).
+
+**Trade-off**
+
+- Low effort; does not reduce distribution complexity or account needs.
+- Still leaves “binary install doesn’t manage Python” unaddressed.
+
+## Notes / open questions
+
+- Python pin: target Python 3.12 for the uv-based install.
+- Installer scope: limit to AlgoKit CLI + Python only. Project dependencies are handled via `algokit init` + bootstrap; that flow can install some tools (e.g., Poetry) but still assumes system prerequisites like Node and Docker (see `docs/features/init.md`, `docs/features/project/bootstrap.md`).
+- Remaining question: hard EOL date for brew/winget/snap vs keep as best effort?
