# Halo CLI Shared Start here when the task says "use Halo CLI" but does not yet say whether it is auth, content, search, operations, or moderation. ## Install And Verify Install globally: ```bash npm install -g @halo-dev/cli ``` Binary name: ```bash halo ``` Check version and top-level help: ```bash halo --version halo --help ``` ## Top-Level Areas - `auth` - `post` - `single-page` - `search` - `plugin` - `theme` - `attachment` - `backup` - `moment` - `comment` - `notification` - `completion <shell>` — Generate shell completion script (bash, zsh, fish, powershell) ## Shared Rules - Most command areas require an authenticated profile. - Use `halo auth login` to create a profile. - Use `--profile <name>` when more than one profile exists. - Use `--json` when output is meant for automation or follow-up parsing. - In non-interactive mode, dangerous commands usually require `--force`. - Read `--help` before guessing flags for a specific command. ## Public vs Authenticated Most areas require auth. The main public workflow is `halo search`, which can use a direct site URL without login: ```bash halo search --keyword "halo" --url https://www.halo.run ``` ## Config And Secrets Profile metadata is stored in: - `$HALO_CLI_CONFIG_DIR/config.json` if `HALO_CLI_CONFIG_DIR` is set - otherwise `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/halo/config.json` - otherwise `~/.config/halo/config.json` Credentials are stored in the system keyring. ## Routing - Use `halo-cli-auth` for login, current profile, profile list/use/delete, and credential repair. - Use `halo-cli-content` for posts and single pages. - Use `halo-cli-search` for public site search. - Use `halo-cli-operations` for themes, plugins, attachments, backups, and moments. - Use `halo-cli-moderation-notifications` for comments, replies, and notifications.
