File contents

atcli

Minimal Attio CLI using the REST API directly. No MCP server.

CLI path

When this is installed as a pi package from git, pi runs npm install, which runs the build. From this skill directory, invoke the CLI with:

node ../../dist/cli.js <args>

If installed globally with npm, atcli <args> also works.

API key required

atcli needs an Attio access token before it can make API calls.

Create or update a token in your workspace's developer settings:

https://app.attio.com/<workspace-slug>/settings/developers/access-tokens

Set the permission options/scopes you need, then click Save changes. Copy the token and save it locally under an account name:

node ../../dist/cli.js accounts token work <token>
# or, if ATTIO_TOKEN is set
node ../../dist/cli.js accounts token work $ATTIO_TOKEN

Tokens are stored in ~/.atcli/accounts.json.

Common commands

node ../../dist/cli.js accounts list
node ../../dist/cli.js work me

node ../../dist/cli.js work records companies --filter '{"name":"Acme"}' --json
