aircrushin PromptMinder CLI
Overview
promptminder is a JSON-in / JSON-out CLI for managing prompts, tags, and teams via the PromptMinder API. Every success response goes to stdout; every error goes to stderr as {"error":{"message":"...","status":null}}.
Install the CLI first:
npm i -g @aircrushin/promptminder-cli
Auth & Token
Token resolution order: --token flag -> PROMPTMINDER_TOKEN env var -> saved config.
# One-time interactive login (saves token to ~/.promptminder/config.json)
promptminder auth login --token pm_xxx
# CI / scripts — prefer env var, no saved state needed
export PROMPTMINDER_TOKEN=pm_xxx
promptminder prompt list
promptminder auth logout removes the saved token.
Quick Reference
promptminder auth login --token <token>
promptminder team list
promptminder prompt list [--team <id>] [--tag <tag>] [--search <text>] [--page <n>] [--limit <n>]
promptminder prompt get <id> [--team <id>]
promptminder prompt create --title <text> --content <text> [--description <text>] [--tags <csv>] [--version <text>] [--team <id>]
promptminder prompt update <id> [--title <text>] [--content <text>] [--team <id>]
promptminder prompt delete <id> --yes [--team <id>]
promptminder tag list [--team <id>] [--include-public <true|false>]
promptminder tag create --name <text> [--team <id>]
promptminder tag update <id> --name <text> [--team <id>]
promptminder tag delete <id> --yes [--team <id>]
Run promptminder help for up-to-date full usage.
Team Scoping
Pass --team <uuid> to target a non-personal workspace. Omitting --team targets the personal workspace. The flag is always --team, never --team-id.
promptminder prompt list --team team-uuid-xyz
Content Input Sources
prompt create and prompt update accept content three ways — use exactly one:
| Flag | When to use |
|---|---|
--content "..." |
Inline short text |
--content-file path/to/file.txt |
Content from a local file |
--stdin |
Pipe content from another command |
Agent Wrapper (promptminder-agent)
Use promptminder-agent in scripts and AI agent pipelines. Actions use dot notation, not space-separated subcommands. Input is a single --input JSON object, not individual flags.
# List prompts
promptminder-agent prompt.list
# Get a specific prompt
promptminder-agent prompt.get --input '{"id":"prompt-id"}'
# Create a prompt in a team
promptminder-agent prompt.create --input '{"title":"SQL helper","content":"Write clean SQL","team":"team-uuid"}'
# Pipe JSON from a file
cat payload.json | promptminder-agent prompt.create --stdin
Available actions: team.list, prompt.list, prompt.get, prompt.create, prompt.update, prompt.delete, tag.list, tag.create, tag.update, tag.delete.
Run promptminder-agent help for the full list with input field requirements.
Error Triage
| Stderr message | Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
Missing token. Pass --token or run promptminder auth login. |
No token found | Set PROMPTMINDER_TOKEN or run auth login |
| HTTP 401 | Token invalid or expired | Re-run auth login with a fresh token |
Destructive commands require --yes |
Delete without confirmation flag | Add --yes |
Use only one of --content, --content-file, or --stdin |
Multiple content sources | Keep only one |
Common Mistakes
- Wrong agent wrapper syntax:
promptminder-agent prompt listfails — usepromptminder-agent prompt.list(dot notation). - Wrong team flag:
--team-iddoes not exist — use--team <uuid>. - Piping with jq: pipe
promptminder prompt list | jq .— stdout is always JSON. - Token in CI: prefer
PROMPTMINDER_TOKENenv var; avoid checking in the token or running interactiveauth loginin pipelines.
