More detail: [Development channels](/install/development-channels) and [Installer flags](/install/installer).
### How do I try the latest bits?
Two options:
1) **Dev channel (git checkout):**
```bash
clawdbot update --channel dev
```
This switches to the `main` branch and updates from source.
2) **Hackable install (from the installer site):**
```bash
curl -fsSL https://clawd.bot/install.sh | bash -s -- --install-method git
```
That gives you a local repo you can edit, then update via git.
If you prefer a clean clone manually, use:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/clawdbot/clawdbot.git
cd clawdbot
pnpm install
pnpm build
```

[Install](/install).
### Installer stuck? How do I get more feedback?
Re-run the installer with **verbose output**:
```bash
curl -fsSL https://clawd.bot/install.sh | bash -s -- --verbose
```
Beta install with verbose:
```bash
curl -fsSL https://clawd.bot/install.sh | bash -s -- --beta --verbose
```
For a hackable (git) install:
```bash
curl -fsSL https://clawd.bot/install.sh | bash -s -- --install-method git --verbose
```
More options: [Installer flags](/install/installer).
### The docs didnt answer my question — how do I get a better answer?
Use the **hackable (git) install** so you have the full source and docs locally, then ask
