CLI Overview

The AImetier CLI handles instance setup, diagnostics, and control-plane operations.

Usage

pnpm aimetier --help

Global Options

All commands support:

Flag	Description
--data-dir <path>	Local AImetier data root (isolates from ~/.aimetier)
--api-base <url>	API base URL
--api-key <token>	API authentication token
--context <path>	Context file path
--profile <name>	Context profile name
--json	Output as JSON

Company-scoped commands also accept --company-id <id>.

For clean local instances, pass --data-dir on the command you run:

pnpm aimetier run --data-dir ./tmp/aimetier-dev

Context Profiles

Store defaults to avoid repeating flags:

# Set defaults
pnpm aimetier context set --api-base http://localhost:3100 --company-id <id>

# View current context
pnpm aimetier context show

# List profiles
pnpm aimetier context list

# Switch profile
pnpm aimetier context use default

To avoid storing secrets in context, use an env var:

pnpm aimetier context set --api-key-env-var-name AIMETIER_API_KEY
export AIMETIER_API_KEY=...

Context is stored at ~/.aimetier/context.json.

Command Categories

The CLI has two categories:

1. Setup commands — instance bootstrap, diagnostics, configuration
2. Control-plane commands — issues, agents, approvals, activity
