args-cli

Command-line client for args. Sign in to args from your terminal so git push to args repositories just works.

The binary is named args.

Status: early. Only authentication commands ship today. Repository management, code review, and CI features will land in subsequent releases.

Install

cargo install args-cli

This installs the args binary into your Cargo bin directory (usually ~/.cargo/bin).

Authenticates with args via the OAuth device-code flow. Opens a verification URL and waits for you to enter a one-time code in your browser.

$ args login
Open the following URL in your browser:
https://args.io/oauth/device
Enter the code: ABCD-1234

On success:

Your username and email are written to ~/.config/args/config.toml.
An access token is stored via git credential approve, so git push to args repositories authenticates automatically against whatever credential helper your system uses (macOS Keychain, libsecret, Windows Credential Manager, etc.).

Prints the currently logged-in user, or "Not logged in" if no session is active.
