Setup

Installation

git clone https://github.com/cuuush/groupme-cli
cd groupme-cli
npm install

Note: npm run bundle uses esbuild to produce a single self-contained file at dist/groupme-cli.js. No separate TypeScript compilation step needed — just install, bundle, and link.

Authentication

Get your GroupMe API token from dev.groupme.com → Access Token, then configure:

groupme config --token YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN

Or use the GROUPME_TOKEN environment variable, or pass --token to any command.
