title: Using the AWS CLI without installing it

The official AWS CLI installation steps require downloading and running a script to install the CLI. This download contains the CLI itself, and the install script simply copies it to the right places.
However, especially for one-off uses, it's quite convenient to not run it at all, and run it as-is:
1\. Download the CLI:
```bash
curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-x86_64.zip" -o "awscliv2.zip"
unzip awscliv2.zip
```
2\. Make the CLI itself executable:
```bash
chmod +x ./aws/dist/aws
```
3\. Run the CLI:
```bash
./aws/dist/aws help
```
