# 1Password CLI

Follow the official CLI get-started steps. Don't guess install commands.

## References

- `references/get-started.md` (install + app integration + sign-in flow)
- `references/cli-examples.md` (real `op` examples)

## Workflow

1. Check OS + shell.
2. Verify CLI present: `op --version`.
3. Confirm desktop app integration is enabled (per get-started) and the app is unlocked.
4. Sign in / authorize this terminal: `op signin` (expect an app prompt).
5. If multiple accounts: use `--account` or `OP_ACCOUNT`.
6. Verify access: `op whoami` or `op account list`.

## Avoid repeated auth prompts (tmux)

The bash tool uses a fresh TTY per command, so app integration may prompt every time. To reuse authorization, run multiple `op` commands inside a single tmux session.

Example (see `tmux` skill for socket conventions):

```bash
SOCKET_DIR="${CLAWDBOT_TMUX_SOCKET_DIR:-${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/clawdbot-tmux-sockets}"
mkdir -p "$SOCKET_DIR"
SOCKET="$SOCKET_DIR/clawdbot.sock"
SESSION=op-auth

tmux -S "$SOCKET" new -d -s "$SESSION" -n shell
tmux -S "$SOCKET" send-keys -t "$SESSION":0.0 -- "op signin --account my.1password.com" Enter
tmux -S "$SOCKET" send-keys -t "$SESSION":0.0 -- "op vault list" Enter
tmux -S "$SOCKET" capture-pane -p -J -t "$SESSION":0.0 -S -200
```

## Guardrails

- Never paste secrets into logs, chat, or code.
- Prefer `op run` / `op inject` over writing secrets to disk.
- If sign-in without app integration is needed, use `op account add`.
- If a command returns "account is not signed in", re-run `op signin` and authorize in the app.
