CLI reference

The skaftor CLI is a thin, zero-dependency client over the platform's per-project MCP server. It authenticates with your personal dev-link token, so it sees exactly what you're assigned and can move work orders, open pull requests, and pull execution context without leaving the shell.

Install

curl -fsSL https://app.skaftor.com/install | sh   # needs Node.js 18+

That drops the skaftor command into ~/.local/bin (override with SKAFTOR_BIN). Add it to your PATH if needed.

Connect

skaftor login "https://app.skaftor.com/api/mcp/<projectId>?dev=<token>"
skaftor context          # list connections, ● marks the active one
skaftor use "Payments Core"
skaftor whoami
