Login

Connect the CLI to your contract.dev account.


contract.dev login

The CLI prints a one-time code and opens the browser at the activation page. Approving there saves credentials to ~/.contract.dev/credentials.json, bound to your account and to the workspace active in the app at that moment. To act on another workspace, see Workspaces.


One-time code: ABCD-1234

Opening https://app.contract.dev/activate?code=ABCD-1234
Waiting for approval...
Logged in as you@example.com

Flag	Description
`--no-browser`	Print the activation URL instead of opening the browser.

`whoami`

Show which account and workspace the CLI acts as, where the credentials come from, and the key they use:


contract.dev whoami


you@example.com (workspace: Acme)
Auth: ~/.contract.dev/credentials.json → https://app.contract.dev  (key cmg1a2b3c4d5e6f7g8h9i0j1)

`logout`

Revoke the key and delete the saved credentials:


contract.dev logout


Revoked the API key.
Removed ~/.contract.dev/credentials.json

The key is revoked on the server first, so it does not outlive this machine. If the server cannot be reached the file is still removed; revoke the key under APIs in the app.
