## Global flags

- `--dev`: isolate state under `~/.kaijibot-dev` and shift default ports.
- `--profile <name>`: isolate state under `~/.kaijibot-<name>`.
- `--container <name>`: target a named container for execution.
- `--no-color`: disable ANSI colors.
- `--update`: shorthand for `kaijibot update` (source installs only).
- `-V`, `--version`, `-v`: print version and exit.

## Output styling

- ANSI colors and progress indicators only render in TTY sessions.
- OSC-8 hyperlinks render as clickable links in supported terminals; otherwise we fall back to plain URLs.
- `--json` (and `--plain` where supported) disables styling for clean output.
- `--no-color` disables ANSI styling; `NO_COLOR=1` is also respected.
- Long-running commands show a progress indicator (OSC 9;4 when supported).

## Color palette

KaijiBot uses a lobster palette for CLI output.

- `accent` (#FF5A2D): headings, labels, primary highlights.
- `accentBright` (#FF7A3D): command names, emphasis.
- `accentDim` (#D14A22): secondary highlight text.
- `info` (#FF8A5B): informational values.
- `success` (#2FBF71): success states.
- `warn` (#FFB020): warnings, fallbacks, attention.
- `error` (#E23D2D): errors, failures.
- `muted` (#8B7F77): de-emphasis, metadata.

Palette source of truth: `src/terminal/palette.ts` (the “lobster palette”).

Note: plugins can add additional top-level commands (for example `kaijibot voicecall`).

## Security

- `kaijibot security audit` — audit config + local state for common security foot-guns.
- `kaijibot security audit --deep` — best-effort live Gateway probe.
- `kaijibot security audit --fix` — tighten safe defaults and state/config permissions.

## Secrets

### `secrets`

Manage SecretRefs and related runtime/config hygiene.

Subcommands:

- `secrets reload`
- `secrets audit`
- `secrets configure`
- `secrets apply --from <path>`

`secrets reload` options:

- `--url`, `--token`, `--timeout`, `--expect-final`, `--json`

`secrets audit` options:

- `--check`
- `--allow-exec`
- `--json`

`secrets configure` options:

- `--apply`
- `--yes`
- `--providers-only`
- `--skip-provider-setup`
- `--agent <id>`
- `--allow-exec`
- `--plan-out <path>`
- `--json`

`secrets apply --from <path>` options:

- `--dry-run`
- `--allow-exec`
- `--json`

Notes:

- `reload` is a Gateway RPC and keeps the last-known-good runtime snapshot when resolution fails.
- `audit --check` returns non-zero on findings; unresolved refs use a higher-priority non-zero exit code.
- Dry-run exec checks are skipped by default; use `--allow-exec` to opt in.

## Plugins

Manage extensions and their config:

- `kaijibot plugins list` — discover plugins (use `--json` for machine output).
- `kaijibot plugins inspect <id>` — show details for a plugin (`info` is an alias).
- `kaijibot plugins install <path|.tgz|npm-spec|plugin@marketplace>` — install a plugin (or add a plugin path to `plugins.load.paths`; use `--force` to overwrite an existing install target).
- `kaijibot plugins marketplace list <marketplace>` — list marketplace entries before install.
- `kaijibot plugins enable <id>` / `disable <id>` — toggle `plugins.entries.<id>.enabled`.
- `kaijibot plugins doctor` — report plugin load errors.

Most plugin changes require a gateway restart. See [/plugin](/tools/plugin).

## Memory

Vector search over `MEMORY.md` + `memory/*.md`:

- `kaijibot memory status` — show index stats; use `--deep` for vector + embedding readiness checks or `--fix` to repair stale recall/promotion artifacts.
- `kaijibot memory index` — reindex memory files.
- `kaijibot memory search "<query>"` (or `--query "<query>"`) — semantic search over memory.
- `kaijibot memory promote` — rank short-term recalls and optionally append top entries into `MEMORY.md`.

## Sandbox

Manage sandbox runtimes for isolated agent execution. See [/cli/sandbox](/cli/sandbox).

Subcommands:

- `sandbox list [--browser] [--json]`
- `sandbox recreate [--all] [--session <key>] [--agent <id>] [--browser] [--force]`
- `sandbox explain [--session <key>] [--agent <id>] [--json]`

Notes:

- `sandbox recreate` removes existing runtimes so the next use seeds them again with current config.
- For `ssh` and OpenShell `remote` backends, recreate deletes the canonical remote workspace for the selected scope.

## Chat slash commands

Chat messages support `/...` commands (text and native). See [/tools/slash-commands](/tools/slash-commands).

Highlights:

- `/status` for quick diagnostics.
- `/config` for persisted config changes.
- `/debug` for runtime-only config overrides (memory, not disk; requires `commands.debug: true`).

## Setup + onboarding

### `completion`

Generate shell-completion scripts and optionally install them into your shell profile.

Options:

- `-s, --shell <zsh|bash|powershell|fish>`
- `-i, --install`
- `--write-state`
- `-y, --yes`

Notes:

- Without `--install` or `--write-state`, `completion` prints the script to stdout.
- `--install` writes an `KaijiBot Completion` block into your shell profile and points it at the cached script under the KaijiBot state directory.

### `setup`

Initialize config + workspace.

Options:

- `--workspace <dir>`: agent workspace path (default `~/.kaijibot/workspace`).
- `--wizard`: run onboarding.
- `--non-interactive`: run onboarding without prompts.
- `--mode <local|remote>`: onboard mode.
- `--remote-url <url>`: remote Gateway URL.
- `--remote-token <token>`: remote Gateway token.

Onboarding auto-runs when any onboarding flags are present (`--non-interactive`, `--mode`, `--remote-url`, `--remote-token`).

### `onboard`

Interactive onboarding for gateway, workspace, and skills.

Options:

- `--workspace <dir>`
- `--reset` (reset config + credentials + sessions before onboarding)
- `--reset-scope <config|config+creds+sessions|full>` (default `config+creds+sessions`; use `full` to also remove workspace)
- `--non-interactive`
- `--mode <local|remote>`
- `--flow <quickstart|advanced|manual>` (manual is an alias for advanced)
- `--auth-choice <choice>` where `<choice>` is one of:
  `chutes`, `deepseek-api-key`, `openai-codex`, `openai-api-key`,
  `openrouter-api-key`, `kilocode-api-key`, `litellm-api-key`, `ai-gateway-api-key`,
  `cloudflare-ai-gateway-api-key`, `moonshot-api-key`, `moonshot-api-key-cn`,
  `kimi-code-api-key`, `synthetic-api-key`, `venice-api-key`, `together-api-key`,
  `huggingface-api-key`, `apiKey`, `gemini-api-key`, `google-gemini-cli`, `zai-api-key`,
  `zai-coding-global`, `zai-coding-cn`, `zai-global`, `zai-cn`, `xiaomi-api-key`,
  `minimax-global-oauth`, `minimax-global-api`, `minimax-cn-oauth`, `minimax-cn-api`,
  `opencode-zen`, `opencode-go`, `github-copilot`, `copilot-proxy`, `xai-api-key`,
  `mistral-api-key`, `volcengine-api-key`, `byteplus-api-key`, `qianfan-api-key`,
  `qwen-standard-api-key-cn`, `qwen-standard-api-key`, `qwen-api-key-cn`, `qwen-api-key`,
  `modelstudio-standard-api-key-cn`, `modelstudio-standard-api-key`,
  `modelstudio-api-key-cn`, `modelstudio-api-key`, `custom-api-key`, `skip`
- Qwen note: `qwen-*` is the canonical auth-choice family. `modelstudio-*`
  ids remain accepted as legacy compatibility aliases only.
- `--secret-input-mode <plaintext|ref>` (default `plaintext`; use `ref` to store provider default env refs instead of plaintext keys)
- `--anthropic-api-key <key>`
- `--openai-api-key <key>`
- `--mistral-api-key <key>`
- `--openrouter-api-key <key>`

- `--custom-model-id <id>` (non-interactive; used with `--auth-choice custom-api-key`)
- `--custom-api-key <key>` (non-interactive; optional; used with `--auth-choice custom-api-key`; falls back to `CUSTOM_API_KEY` when omitted)
- `--custom-provider-id <id>` (non-interactive; optional custom provider id)
- `--custom-compatibility <openai|anthropic>` (non-interactive; optional; default `openai`)
- `--gateway-port <port>`
- `--gateway-bind <loopback|lan|tailnet|auto|custom>`
- `--gateway-auth <token|password>`
- `--gateway-token <token>`
- `--gateway-token-ref-env <name>` (non-interactive; store `gateway.auth.token` as an env SecretRef; requires that env var to be set; cannot be combined with `--gateway-token`)
- `--gateway-password <password>`
- `--remote-url <url>`
- `--remote-token <token>`
- `--tailscale <off|serve|funnel>`
- `--tailscale-reset-on-exit`

### `configure`

Interactive configuration wizard (models, channels, skills, gateway).

Options:

- `--section <section>` (repeatable; limit the wizard to specific sections)

### `config`

Non-interactive config helpers (get/set/unset/file/schema/validate). Running `kaijibot config` with no
subcommand launches the wizard.

Subcommands:

- `config get <path>`: print a config value (dot/bracket path).
- `config set`: supports four assignment modes:
  - value mode: `config set <path> <value>` (JSON5-or-string parsing)
  - SecretRef builder mode: `config set <path> --ref-provider <provider> --ref-source <source> --ref-id <id>`
  - provider builder mode: `config set secrets.providers.<alias> --provider-source <env|file|exec> ...`
  - batch mode: `config set --batch-json '<json>'` or `config set --batch-file <path>`
- `config set --dry-run`: validate assignments without writing `kaijibot.json` (exec SecretRef checks are skipped by default).
- `config set --allow-exec --dry-run`: opt in to exec SecretRef dry-run checks (may execute provider commands).
- `config set --dry-run --json`: emit machine-readable dry-run output (checks + completeness signal, operations, refs checked/skipped, errors).
- `config set --strict-json`: require JSON5 parsing for path/value input. `--json` remains a legacy alias for strict parsing outside dry-run output mode.
- `config unset <path>`: remove a value.
- `config file`: print the active config file path.
- `config schema`: print the generated JSON schema for `kaijibot.json`, including propagated field `title` / `description` docs metadata across nested object, wildcard, array-item, and composition branches, plus best-effort live plugin/channel schema metadata.
- `config validate`: validate the current config against the schema without starting the gateway.
- `config validate --json`: emit machine-readable JSON output.

### `doctor`

Health checks + quick fixes (config + gateway + legacy services).

Options:

- `--no-workspace-suggestions`: disable workspace memory hints.
- `--yes`: accept defaults without prompting (headless).
- `--non-interactive`: skip prompts; apply safe migrations only.
- `--deep`: scan system services for extra gateway installs.
- `--repair` (alias: `--fix`): attempt automatic repairs for detected issues.
- `--force`: force repairs even when not strictly needed.
- `--generate-gateway-token`: generate a new gateway auth token.

### `dashboard`

Open the Control UI with your current token.

Options:

- `--no-open`: print the URL but do not launch a browser

Notes:

- For SecretRef-managed gateway tokens, `dashboard` prints or opens a non-tokenized URL instead of exposing the secret in terminal output or browser launch arguments.

### `update`

Update the installed CLI.

Root options:

- `--json`
- `--no-restart`
- `--dry-run`
- `--channel <stable|beta|dev>`
- `--tag <dist-tag|version|spec>`
- `--timeout <seconds>`
- `--yes`

Subcommands:

- `update status`
- `update wizard`

`update status` options:

- `--json`
- `--timeout <seconds>`

`update wizard` options:

- `--timeout <seconds>`

Notes:

- `kaijibot --update` rewrites to `kaijibot update`.

### `backup`

Create and verify local backup archives for KaijiBot state.

Subcommands:

- `backup create`
- `backup verify <archive>`

`backup create` options:

- `--output <path>`
- `--json`
- `--dry-run`
- `--verify`
- `--only-config`
- `--no-include-workspace`

`backup verify <archive>` options:

- `--json`

## Channel helpers

### `channels`

Manage chat channel accounts (WhatsApp/Telegram/Discord/Google Chat/Slack/Mattermost (plugin)/Signal/iMessage/Microsoft Teams).

Subcommands:

- `channels list`: show configured channels and auth profiles.
- `channels status`: check gateway reachability and channel health (`--probe` runs live per-account probe/audit checks when the gateway is reachable; if not, it falls back to config-only channel summaries. Use `kaijibot health` or `kaijibot status --deep` for broader gateway health probes).
- Tip: `channels status` prints warnings with suggested fixes when it can detect common misconfigurations (then points you to `kaijibot doctor`).
- `channels logs`: show recent channel logs from the gateway log file.
- `channels add`: wizard-style setup when no flags are passed; flags switch to non-interactive mode.
  - When adding a non-default account to a channel still using single-account top-level config, KaijiBot promotes account-scoped values into the channel account map before writing the new account. Most channels use `accounts.default`; Matrix can preserve an existing matching named/default target instead.
  - Non-interactive `channels add` does not auto-create/upgrade bindings; channel-only bindings continue to match the default account.
- `channels remove`: disable by default; pass `--delete` to remove config entries without prompts.
- `channels login`: interactive channel login (WhatsApp Web only).
- `channels logout`: log out of a channel session (if supported).

Common options:

- `--channel <name>`: `whatsapp|telegram|discord|googlechat|slack|mattermost|signal|imessage|msteams`
- `--account <id>`: channel account id (default `default`)
- `--name <label>`: display name for the account

`channels login` options:

- `--channel <channel>` (default `whatsapp`; supports `whatsapp`/`web`)
- `--account <id>`
- `--verbose`

`channels logout` options:

- `--channel <channel>` (default `whatsapp`)
- `--account <id>`

`channels list` options:

- `--no-usage`: skip model provider usage/quota snapshots (OAuth/API-backed only).
- `--json`: output JSON (includes usage unless `--no-usage` is set).

`channels status` options:

- `--probe`
- `--timeout <ms>`
- `--json`

`channels capabilities` options:

- `--channel <name>`
- `--account <id>` (only with `--channel`)
- `--target <dest>`
- `--timeout <ms>`
- `--json`

`channels resolve` options:

- `<entries...>`
- `--channel <name>`
- `--account <id>`
- `--kind <auto|user|group>`
- `--json`

`channels logs` options:

- `--channel <name|all>` (default `all`)
- `--lines <n>` (default `200`)
- `--json`

Notes:

- `channels login` supports `--verbose`.
- `channels capabilities --account` only applies when `--channel` is set.
- `channels status --probe` can show transport state plus probe/audit results such as `works`, `probe failed`, `audit ok`, or `audit failed`, depending on channel support.

More detail: [/concepts/oauth](/concepts/oauth)

Examples:

```bash
kaijibot channels add --channel telegram --account alerts --name "Alerts Bot" --token $TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN
kaijibot channels add --channel discord --account work --name "Work Bot" --token $DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN
kaijibot channels remove --channel discord --account work --delete
kaijibot channels status --probe
kaijibot status --deep
```

### `directory`

Look up self, peer, and group IDs for channels that expose a directory surface. See [`kaijibot directory`](/cli/directory).

Common options:

- `--channel <name>`
- `--account <id>`
- `--json`

Subcommands:

- `directory self`
- `directory peers list [--query <text>] [--limit <n>]`
- `directory groups list [--query <text>] [--limit <n>]`
- `directory groups members --group-id <id> [--limit <n>]`

### `skills`

List and inspect available skills plus readiness info.

Subcommands:

- `skills search [query...]`: search ClawHub skills.
- `skills search --limit <n> --json`: cap search results or emit machine-readable output.
- `skills install <slug>`: install a skill from ClawHub into the active workspace.
- `skills install <slug> --version <version>`: install a specific ClawHub version.
- `skills install <slug> --force`: overwrite an existing workspace skill folder.
- `skills update <slug|--all>`: update tracked ClawHub skills.
- `skills list`: list skills (default when no subcommand).
- `skills list --json`: emit machine-readable skill inventory on stdout.
- `skills list --verbose`: include missing requirements in the table.
- `skills info <name>`: show details for one skill.
- `skills info <name> --json`: emit machine-readable details on stdout.
- `skills check`: summary of ready vs missing requirements.
- `skills check --json`: emit machine-readable readiness output on stdout.

Options:

- `--eligible`: show only ready skills.
- `--json`: output JSON (no styling).
- `-v`, `--verbose`: include missing requirements detail.

Tip: use `kaijibot skills search`, `kaijibot skills install`, and `kaijibot skills update` for ClawHub-backed skills.

### `pairing`

Approve DM pairing requests across channels.

Subcommands:

- `pairing list [channel] [--channel <channel>] [--account <id>] [--json]`
- `pairing approve <channel> <code> [--account <id>] [--notify]`
- `pairing approve --channel <channel> [--account <id>] <code> [--notify]`

Notes:

- If exactly one pairing-capable channel is configured, `pairing approve <code>` is also allowed.
- `list` and `approve` both support `--account <id>` for multi-account channels.

### `devices`

Manage gateway device pairing entries and per-role device tokens.

Subcommands:

- `devices list [--json]`
- `devices approve [requestId] [--latest]`
- `devices reject <requestId>`
- `devices remove <deviceId>`
- `devices clear --yes [--pending]`
- `devices rotate --device <id> --role <role> [--scope <scope...>]`
- `devices revoke --device <id> --role <role>`

Notes:

- `devices list` and `devices approve` can fall back to local pairing files on local loopback when direct pairing scope is unavailable.
- `devices approve` auto-selects the newest pending request when no `requestId` is passed or `--latest` is set.
- Stored-token reconnects reuse the token's cached approved scopes; explicit
  `devices rotate --scope ...` updates that stored scope set for future
  cached-token reconnects.
- `devices rotate` and `devices revoke` return JSON payloads.

### `qr`

Generate a mobile pairing QR and setup code from the current Gateway config. See [`kaijibot qr`](/cli/qr).

Options:

- `--remote`
- `--url <url>`
- `--public-url <url>`
- `--token <token>`
- `--password <password>`
- `--setup-code-only`
- `--no-ascii`
- `--json`

Notes:

- `--token` and `--password` are mutually exclusive.
- The setup code carries a short-lived bootstrap token, not the shared gateway token/password.
- Built-in bootstrap handoff keeps the primary node token at `scopes: []`.
- Any handed-off operator bootstrap token stays bounded to `operator.approvals`, `operator.read`, `operator.talk.secrets`, and `operator.write`.
- Bootstrap scope checks are role-prefixed, so that operator allowlist only satisfies operator requests; non-operator roles still need scopes under their own role prefix.
- `--remote` can use `gateway.remote.url` or the active Tailscale Serve/Funnel URL.
- After scanning, approve the request with `kaijibot devices list` / `kaijibot devices approve <requestId>`.

### `clawbot`

Legacy alias namespace. Currently supports `kaijibot clawbot qr`, which maps to [`kaijibot qr`](/cli/qr).

### `hooks`

Manage internal agent hooks.

Subcommands:

- `hooks list`
- `hooks info <name>`
- `hooks check`
- `hooks enable <name>`
- `hooks disable <name>`
- `hooks install <path-or-spec>` (deprecated alias for `kaijibot plugins install`)
- `hooks update [id]` (deprecated alias for `kaijibot plugins update`)

Common options:

- `--json`
- `--eligible`
- `-v`, `--verbose`

Notes:

- Plugin-managed hooks cannot be enabled or disabled through `kaijibot hooks`; enable or disable the owning plugin instead.
- `hooks install` and `hooks update` still work as compatibility aliases, but they print deprecation warnings and forward to the plugin commands.

### `webhooks`

Webhook helpers. Current built-in surface is Gmail Pub/Sub setup + runner:

- `webhooks gmail setup`
- `webhooks gmail run`

### `webhooks gmail`

Gmail Pub/Sub hook setup + runner. See [Gmail Pub/Sub](/automation/cron-jobs#gmail-pubsub-integration).

Subcommands:

- `webhooks gmail setup` (requires `--account <email>`; supports `--project`, `--topic`, `--subscription`, `--label`, `--hook-url`, `--hook-token`, `--push-token`, `--bind`, `--port`, `--path`, `--include-body`, `--max-bytes`, `--renew-minutes`, `--tailscale`, `--tailscale-path`, `--tailscale-target`, `--push-endpoint`, `--json`)
- `webhooks gmail run` (runtime overrides for the same flags)

Notes:

- `setup` configures the Gmail watch plus the KaijiBot-facing push path.
- `run` starts the local Gmail watcher/renew loop with optional runtime overrides.

### `dns`

Wide-area discovery DNS helpers (CoreDNS + Tailscale). Current built-in surface:

- `dns setup [--domain <domain>] [--apply]`

### `dns setup`

Wide-area discovery DNS helper (CoreDNS + Tailscale). See [/gateway/discovery](/gateway/discovery).

Options:

- `--domain <domain>`
- `--apply`: install/update CoreDNS config (requires sudo; macOS only).

Notes:

- Without `--apply`, this is a planning helper that prints the recommended KaijiBot + Tailscale DNS config.
- `--apply` currently supports macOS with Homebrew CoreDNS only.

## Messaging + agent

### `message`

Unified outbound messaging + channel actions.

See: [/cli/message](/cli/message)

Subcommands:

- `message send|poll|react|reactions|read|edit|delete|pin|unpin|pins|permissions|search|timeout|kick|ban`
- `message thread <create|list|reply>`
- `message emoji <list|upload>`
- `message sticker <send|upload>`
- `message role <info|add|remove>`
- `message channel <info|list>`
- `message member info`
- `message voice status`
- `message event <list|create>`

Examples:

- `kaijibot message send --target +15555550123 --message "Hi"`
- `kaijibot message poll --channel discord --target channel:123 --poll-question "Snack?" --poll-option Pizza --poll-option Sushi`

### `agent`

Run one agent turn via the Gateway (or `--local` embedded).

Pass at least one session selector: `--to`, `--session-id`, or `--agent`.

Required:

- `-m, --message <text>`

Options:

- `-t, --to <dest>` (for session key and optional delivery)
- `--session-id <id>`
- `--agent <id>` (agent id; overrides routing bindings)
- `--thinking <off|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>` (provider support varies; not model-gated at CLI level)
- `--verbose <on|off>`
- `--channel <channel>` (delivery channel; omit to use the main session channel)
- `--reply-to <target>` (delivery target override, separate from session routing)
- `--reply-channel <channel>` (delivery channel override)
- `--reply-account <id>` (delivery account id override)
- `--local` (embedded run; plugin registry still preloads first)
- `--deliver`
- `--json`
- `--timeout <seconds>`

Notes:

- Gateway mode falls back to the embedded agent when the Gateway request fails.
- `--local` still preloads the plugin registry, so plugin-provided providers, tools, and channels remain available during embedded runs.
- `--channel`, `--reply-channel`, and `--reply-account` affect reply delivery, not routing.

### `agents`

Manage isolated agents (workspaces + auth + routing).

Running `kaijibot agents` with no subcommand is equivalent to `kaijibot agents list`.

#### `agents list`

List configured agents.

Options:

- `--json`
- `--bindings`

#### `agents add [name]`

Add a new isolated agent. Runs the guided wizard unless flags (or `--non-interactive`) are passed; `--workspace` is required in non-interactive mode.

Options:

- `--workspace <dir>`
- `--model <id>`
- `--agent-dir <dir>`
- `--bind <channel[:accountId]>` (repeatable)
- `--non-interactive`
- `--json`

Binding specs use `channel[:accountId]`. When `accountId` is omitted, KaijiBot may resolve account scope via channel defaults/plugin hooks; otherwise it is a channel binding without explicit account scope.
Passing any explicit add flags switches the command into the non-interactive path. `main` is reserved and cannot be used as the new agent id.

#### `agents bindings`

List routing bindings.

Options:

- `--agent <id>`
- `--json`

#### `agents bind`

Add routing bindings for an agent.

Options:

- `--agent <id>` (defaults to the current default agent)
- `--bind <channel[:accountId]>` (repeatable)
- `--json`

#### `agents unbind`

Remove routing bindings for an agent.

Options:

- `--agent <id>` (defaults to the current default agent)
- `--bind <channel[:accountId]>` (repeatable)
- `--all`
- `--json`

Use either `--all` or `--bind`, not both.

#### `agents delete <id>`

Delete an agent and prune its workspace + state.

Options:

- `--force`
- `--json`

Notes:

- `main` cannot be deleted.
- Without `--force`, interactive confirmation is required.

#### `agents set-identity`

Update an agent identity (name/theme/emoji/avatar).

Options:

- `--agent <id>`
- `--workspace <dir>`
- `--identity-file <path>`
- `--from-identity`
- `--name <name>`
- `--theme <theme>`
- `--emoji <emoji>`
- `--avatar <value>`
- `--json`

Notes:

- `--agent` or `--workspace` can be used to select the target agent.
- When no explicit identity fields are provided, the command reads `IDENTITY.md`.

### `acp`

Run the ACP bridge that connects IDEs to the Gateway.

Root options:

- `--url <url>`
- `--token <token>`
- `--token-file <path>`
- `--password <password>`
- `--password-file <path>`
- `--session <key>`
- `--session-label <label>`
- `--require-existing`
- `--reset-session`
- `--no-prefix-cwd`
- `--provenance <off|meta|meta+receipt>`
- `--verbose`

#### `acp client`

Interactive ACP client for bridge debugging.

Options:

- `--cwd <dir>`
- `--server <command>`
- `--server-args <args...>`
- `--server-verbose`
- `--verbose`

See [`acp`](/cli/acp) for full behavior, security notes, and examples.

### `mcp`

Manage saved MCP server definitions and expose KaijiBot channels over MCP stdio.

#### `mcp serve`

Expose routed KaijiBot channel conversations over MCP stdio.

Options:

- `--url <url>`
- `--token <token>`
- `--token-file <path>`
- `--password <password>`
- `--password-file <path>`
- `--claude-channel-mode <auto|on|off>`
- `--verbose`

#### `mcp list`

List saved MCP server definitions.

Options:

- `--json`

#### `mcp show [name]`

Show one saved MCP server definition or the full saved MCP server object.

Options:

- `--json`

#### `mcp set <name> <value>`

Save one MCP server definition from a JSON object.

#### `mcp unset <name>`

Remove one saved MCP server definition.

### `approvals`

Manage exec approvals. Alias: `exec-approvals`.

#### `approvals get`

Fetch the exec approvals snapshot and effective policy.

Options:

- `--node <node>`
- `--gateway`
- `--json`
- node RPC options from `kaijibot nodes`

#### `approvals set`

Replace exec approvals with JSON from a file or stdin.

Options:

- `--node <node>`
- `--gateway`
- `--file <path>`
- `--stdin`
- `--json`
- node RPC options from `kaijibot nodes`

#### `approvals allowlist add|remove`

Edit the per-agent exec allowlist.

Options:

- `--node <node>`
- `--gateway`
- `--agent <id>` (defaults to `*`)
- `--json`
- node RPC options from `kaijibot nodes`

### `status`

Show linked session health and recent recipients.

Options:

- `--json`
- `--all` (full diagnosis; read-only, pasteable)
- `--deep` (ask the gateway for a live health probe, including channel probes when supported)
- `--usage` (show model provider usage/quota)
- `--timeout <ms>`
- `--verbose`
- `--debug` (alias for `--verbose`)

Notes:

- Overview includes Gateway + node host service status when available.
- `--usage` prints normalized provider usage windows as `X% left`.

### Usage tracking

KaijiBot can surface provider usage/quota when OAuth/API creds are available.

Surfaces:

- `/status` (adds a short provider usage line when available)
- `kaijibot status --usage` (prints full provider breakdown)
- macOS menu bar (Usage section under Context)

Notes:

- Data comes directly from provider usage endpoints (no estimates).
- Human-readable output is normalized to `X% left` across providers.
- Providers with current usage windows: Anthropic, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenAI Codex, MiniMax, Xiaomi, and z.ai.
- MiniMax note: raw `usage_percent` / `usagePercent` means remaining quota, so KaijiBot inverts it before display; count-based fields still win when present. `model_remains` responses prefer the chat-model entry, derive the window label from timestamps when needed, and include the model name in the plan label.
- Usage auth comes from provider-specific hooks when available; otherwise KaijiBot falls back to matching OAuth/API-key credentials from auth profiles, env, or config. If none resolve, usage is hidden.
- Details: see [Usage tracking](/concepts/usage-tracking).

### `health`

Fetch health from the running Gateway.

Options:

- `--json`
- `--timeout <ms>`
- `--verbose` (force a live probe and print gateway connection details)
- `--debug` (alias for `--verbose`)

Notes:

- Default `health` can return a fresh cached gateway snapshot.
- `health --verbose` forces a live probe and expands human-readable output across all configured accounts and agents.

### `sessions`

List stored conversation sessions.

Options:

- `--json`
- `--verbose`
- `--store <path>`
- `--active <minutes>`
- `--agent <id>` (filter sessions by agent)
- `--all-agents` (show sessions across all agents)

Subcommands:

- `sessions cleanup` — remove expired or orphaned sessions

Notes:

- `sessions cleanup` also supports `--fix-missing` to prune entries whose transcript files are gone.

## Reset / Uninstall

### `reset`

Reset local config/state (keeps the CLI installed).

Options:

- `--scope <config|config+creds+sessions|full>`
- `--yes`
- `--non-interactive`
- `--dry-run`

Notes:

- `--non-interactive` requires `--scope` and `--yes`.

### `uninstall`

Uninstall the gateway service + local data (CLI remains).

Options:

- `--service`
- `--state`
- `--workspace`
- `--app`
- `--all`
- `--yes`
- `--non-interactive`
- `--dry-run`

Notes:

- `--non-interactive` requires `--yes` and explicit scopes (or `--all`).
- `--all` removes service, state, workspace, and app together.

### `tasks`

List and manage [background task](/automation/tasks) runs across agents.

- `tasks list` — show active and recent task runs
- `tasks show <id>` — show details for a specific task run
- `tasks notify <id>` — change notification policy for a task run
- `tasks cancel <id>` — cancel a running task
- `tasks audit` — surface operational issues (stale, lost, delivery failures)
- `tasks maintenance [--apply] [--json]` — preview or apply tasks and TaskFlow cleanup/reconciliation (ACP/subagent child sessions, active cron jobs, live CLI runs)
- `tasks flow list` — list active and recent Task Flow flows
- `tasks flow show <lookup>` — inspect a flow by id or lookup key
- `tasks flow cancel <lookup>` — cancel a running flow and its active tasks

### `flows`

Legacy docs shortcut. Flow commands live under `kaijibot tasks flow`:

- `tasks flow list [--json]`
- `tasks flow show <lookup>`
- `tasks flow cancel <lookup>`

## Gateway

### `gateway`

Run the WebSocket Gateway.

Options:

- `--port <port>`
- `--bind <loopback|tailnet|lan|auto|custom>`
- `--token <token>`
- `--auth <token|password>`
- `--password <password>`
- `--password-file <path>`
- `--tailscale <off|serve|funnel>`
- `--tailscale-reset-on-exit`
- `--allow-unconfigured`
- `--dev`
- `--reset` (reset dev config + credentials + sessions + workspace)
- `--force` (kill existing listener on port)
- `--verbose`
- `--cli-backend-logs`
- `--ws-log <auto|full|compact>`
- `--compact` (alias for `--ws-log compact`)
- `--raw-stream`
- `--raw-stream-path <path>`

### `gateway service`

Manage the Gateway service (launchd/systemd/schtasks).

Subcommands:

- `gateway status` (probes the Gateway RPC by default)
- `gateway install` (service install)
- `gateway uninstall`
- `gateway start`
- `gateway stop`
- `gateway restart`

Notes:

- `gateway status` probes the Gateway RPC by default using the service’s resolved port/config (override with `--url/--token/--password`).
- `gateway status` supports `--no-probe`, `--deep`, `--require-rpc`, and `--json` for scripting.
- `gateway status` also surfaces legacy or extra gateway services when it can detect them (`--deep` adds system-level scans). Profile-named KaijiBot services are treated as first-class and aren't flagged as "extra".
- `gateway status` stays available for diagnostics even when the local CLI config is missing or invalid.
- `gateway status` prints the resolved file log path, the CLI-vs-service config paths/validity snapshot, and the resolved probe target URL.
- If gateway auth SecretRefs are unresolved in the current command path, `gateway status --json` reports `rpc.authWarning` only when probe connectivity/auth fails (warnings are suppressed when probe succeeds).
- On Linux systemd installs, status token-drift checks include both `Environment=` and `EnvironmentFile=` unit sources.
- `gateway install|uninstall|start|stop|restart` support `--json` for scripting (default output stays human-friendly).
- `gateway install` defaults to Node runtime; bun is **not recommended** (WhatsApp/Telegram bugs).
- `gateway install` options: `--port`, `--runtime`, `--token`, `--force`, `--json`.

### `daemon`

Legacy alias for the Gateway service-management commands. See [/cli/daemon](/cli/daemon).

Subcommands:

- `daemon status`
- `daemon install`
- `daemon uninstall`
- `daemon start`
- `daemon stop`
- `daemon restart`

Common options:

- `status`: `--url`, `--token`, `--password`, `--timeout`, `--no-probe`, `--require-rpc`, `--deep`, `--json`
- `install`: `--port`, `--runtime <node|bun>`, `--token`, `--force`, `--json`
- `uninstall|start|stop|restart`: `--json`

### `logs`

Tail Gateway file logs via RPC.

Options:

- `--limit <n>`: maximum number of log lines to return
- `--max-bytes <n>`: maximum bytes to read from the log file
- `--follow`: follow the log file (tail -f style)
- `--interval <ms>`: polling interval in ms when following
- `--local-time`: display timestamps in local time
- `--json`: emit line-delimited JSON
- `--plain`: disable structured formatting
- `--no-color`: disable ANSI colors
- `--url <url>`: explicit Gateway WebSocket URL
- `--token <token>`: Gateway token
- `--timeout <ms>`: Gateway RPC timeout
- `--expect-final`: wait for a final response when needed

Examples:

```bash
kaijibot logs --follow
kaijibot logs --limit 200
kaijibot logs --plain
kaijibot logs --json
kaijibot logs --no-color
```

Notes:

- If you pass `--url`, the CLI does not auto-apply config or environment credentials.
- Local loopback pairing failures fall back to the configured local log file; explicit `--url` targets do not.

### `gateway <subcommand>`

Gateway CLI helpers (use `--url`, `--token`, `--password`, `--timeout`, `--expect-final` for RPC subcommands).
When you pass `--url`, the CLI does not auto-apply config or environment credentials.
Include `--token` or `--password` explicitly. Missing explicit credentials is an error.

Subcommands:

- `gateway call <method> [--params <json>] [--url <url>] [--token <token>] [--password <password>] [--timeout <ms>] [--expect-final] [--json]`
- `gateway health`
- `gateway status`
- `gateway probe`
- `gateway discover`
- `gateway install|uninstall|start|stop|restart`
- `gateway run`

Notes:

- `gateway status --deep` adds a system-level service scan. Use `gateway probe`,
  `health --verbose`, or top-level `status --deep` for deeper runtime probe detail.

Common RPCs:

- `config.schema.lookup` (inspect one config subtree with a shallow schema node, matched hint metadata, and immediate child summaries)
- `config.get` (read current config snapshot + hash)
- `config.set` (validate + write full config; use `baseHash` for optimistic concurrency)
- `config.apply` (validate + write config + restart + wake)
- `config.patch` (merge a partial update + restart + wake)
- `update.run` (run update + restart + wake)

Tip: when calling `config.set`/`config.apply`/`config.patch` directly, pass `baseHash` from
`config.get` if a config already exists.
Tip: for partial edits, inspect with `config.schema.lookup` first and prefer `config.patch`.
Tip: these config write RPCs preflight active SecretRef resolution for refs in the submitted config payload and reject writes when an effectively active submitted ref is unresolved.
Tip: the owner-only `gateway` runtime tool still refuses to rewrite `tools.exec.ask` or `tools.exec.security`; legacy `tools.bash.*` aliases normalize to the same protected exec paths.

## Models

See [/concepts/models](/concepts/models) for fallback behavior and scanning strategy.

Anthropic note: Anthropic staff told us KaijiBot-style Claude CLI usage is
allowed again, so KaijiBot treats Claude CLI reuse and `claude -p` usage as
sanctioned for this integration unless Anthropic publishes a new policy. For
production, prefer an Anthropic API key or another supported
subscription-style provider such as OpenAI Codex, Alibaba Cloud Model Studio
Coding Plan, MiniMax Coding Plan, or Z.AI / GLM Coding Plan.

Anthropic setup-token remains available as a supported token-auth path, but KaijiBot now prefers Claude CLI reuse and `claude -p` when available.

### `models` (root)

`kaijibot models` is an alias for `models status`.

Root options:

- `--status-json` (alias for `models status --json`)
- `--status-plain` (alias for `models status --plain`)

### `models list`

Options:

- `--all`
- `--local`
- `--provider <name>`
- `--json`
- `--plain`

### `models status`

Options:

- `--json`
- `--plain`
- `--check` (exit 1=expired/missing, 2=expiring)
- `--probe` (live probe of configured auth profiles)
- `--probe-provider <name>`
- `--probe-profile <id>` (repeat or comma-separated)
- `--probe-timeout <ms>`
- `--probe-concurrency <n>`
- `--probe-max-tokens <n>`
- `--agent <id>`

Always includes the auth overview and OAuth expiry status for profiles in the auth store.
`--probe` runs live requests (may consume tokens and trigger rate limits).
Probe rows can come from auth profiles, env credentials, or `models.json`.
Expect probe statuses like `ok`, `auth`, `rate_limit`, `billing`, `timeout`,
`format`, `unknown`, and `no_model`.
When an explicit `auth.order.<provider>` omits a stored profile, probe reports
`excluded_by_auth_order` instead of silently trying that profile.

### `models set <model>`

Set `agents.defaults.model.primary`.

### `models set-image <model>`

Set `agents.defaults.imageModel.primary`.

### `models aliases list|add|remove`

Options:

- `list`: `--json`, `--plain`
- `add <alias> <model>`
- `remove <alias>`

### `models fallbacks list|add|remove|clear`

Options:

- `list`: `--json`, `--plain`
- `add <model>`
- `remove <model>`
- `clear`

### `models image-fallbacks list|add|remove|clear`

Options:

- `list`: `--json`, `--plain`
- `add <model>`
- `remove <model>`
- `clear`

### `models scan`

Options:

- `--min-params <b>`
- `--max-age-days <days>`
- `--provider <name>`
- `--max-candidates <n>`
- `--timeout <ms>`
- `--concurrency <n>`
- `--no-probe`
- `--yes`
- `--no-input`
- `--set-default`
- `--set-image`
- `--json`

### `models auth add|login|login-github-copilot|setup-token|paste-token`

Options:

- `add`: interactive auth helper (provider auth flow or token paste)
- `login`: `--provider <name>`, `--method <method>`, `--set-default`
- `login-github-copilot`: GitHub Copilot OAuth login flow (`--yes`)
- `setup-token`: `--provider <name>`, `--yes`
- `paste-token`: `--provider <name>`, `--profile-id <id>`, `--expires-in <duration>`

Notes:

- `setup-token` and `paste-token` are generic token commands for providers that expose token auth methods.
- `setup-token` requires an interactive TTY and runs the provider's token-auth method.
- `paste-token` prompts for the token value and defaults to auth profile id `<provider>:manual` when `--profile-id` is omitted.
- Anthropic `setup-token` / `paste-token` remain available as a supported KaijiBot token path, but KaijiBot now prefers Claude CLI reuse and `claude -p` when available.

### `models auth order get|set|clear`

Options:

- `get`: `--provider <name>`, `--agent <id>`, `--json`
- `set`: `--provider <name>`, `--agent <id>`, `<profileIds...>`
- `clear`: `--provider <name>`, `--agent <id>`

## System

### `system event`

Enqueue a system event and optionally trigger a heartbeat (Gateway RPC).

Required:

- `--text <text>`

Options:

- `--mode <now|next-heartbeat>`
- `--json`
- `--url`, `--token`, `--timeout`, `--expect-final`

### `system heartbeat last|enable|disable`

Heartbeat controls (Gateway RPC).

Options:

- `--json`
- `--url`, `--token`, `--timeout`, `--expect-final`

### `system presence`

List system presence entries (Gateway RPC).

Options:

- `--json`
- `--url`, `--token`, `--timeout`, `--expect-final`

## Cron

Manage scheduled jobs (Gateway RPC). See [/automation/cron-jobs](/automation/cron-jobs).

Subcommands:

- `cron status [--json]`
- `cron list [--all] [--json]` (table output by default; use `--json` for raw)
- `cron add` (alias: `create`; requires `--name` and exactly one of `--at` | `--every` | `--cron`, and exactly one payload of `--system-event` | `--message`)
- `cron edit <id>` (patch fields)
- `cron rm <id>` (aliases: `remove`, `delete`)
- `cron enable <id>`
- `cron disable <id>`
- `cron runs --id <id> [--limit <n>]`
- `cron run <id> [--due]`

All `cron` commands accept `--url`, `--token`, `--timeout`, `--expect-final`.

`cron add|edit --model ...` uses that selected allowed model for the job. If
the model is not allowed, cron warns and falls back to the job's agent/default
model selection instead. Configured fallback chains still apply, but a plain
model override with no explicit per-job fallback list no longer appends the
agent primary as a hidden extra retry target.

## Node host

### `node`

`node` runs a **headless node host** or manages it as a background service. See
[`kaijibot node`](/cli/node).

Subcommands:

- `node run --host <gateway-host> --port 18789`
- `node status`
- `node install [--host <gateway-host>] [--port <port>] [--tls] [--tls-fingerprint <sha256>] [--node-id <id>] [--display-name <name>] [--runtime <node|bun>] [--force]`
- `node uninstall`
- `node stop`
- `node restart`

Auth notes:

- `node` resolves gateway auth from env/config (no `--token`/`--password` flags): `KAIJIBOT_GATEWAY_TOKEN` / `KAIJIBOT_GATEWAY_PASSWORD`, then `gateway.auth.*`. In local mode, node host intentionally ignores `gateway.remote.*`; in `gateway.mode=remote`, `gateway.remote.*` participates per remote precedence rules.
- Node-host auth resolution only honors `KAIJIBOT_GATEWAY_*` env vars.

## Nodes

`nodes` talks to the Gateway and targets paired nodes. See [/nodes](/nodes).

Common options:

- `--url`, `--token`, `--timeout`, `--json`

Subcommands:

- `nodes status [--connected] [--last-connected <duration>]`
- `nodes describe --node <id|name|ip>`
- `nodes list [--connected] [--last-connected <duration>]`
- `nodes pending`
- `nodes approve <requestId>`
- `nodes reject <requestId>`
- `nodes rename --node <id|name|ip> --name <displayName>`
- `nodes invoke --node <id|name|ip> --command <command> [--params <json>] [--invoke-timeout <ms>] [--idempotency-key <key>]`
- `nodes notify --node <id|name|ip> [--title <text>] [--body <text>] [--sound <name>] [--priority <passive|active|timeSensitive>] [--delivery <system|overlay|auto>] [--invoke-timeout <ms>]` (mac only)
