File contents

Server RPC CLI

Use the .agents/skills/server/cli.ts CLI to call RPC procedures on the local dev server.

Authentication

On first use, the CLI authenticates using your local gcloud credentials:

Runs gcloud auth print-identity-token to get a Google ID token
Calls POST /api/auth/cli-login on the server to verify and get an API key
Caches the API key locally for subsequent calls

Commands

# Authenticate (happens automatically on first call)
.agents/skills/server/cli.ts login

# Clear cached authentication
.agents/skills/server/cli.ts logout

# Call an RPC procedure
.agents/skills/server/cli.ts call threads.list
.agents/skills/server/cli.ts call threads.get '{"id": "abc-123"}'
.agents/skills/server/cli.ts call threads.create '{"title": "My Thread"}'
.agents/skills/server/cli.ts call dev.usersList

Available Procedures

The RPC procedures are defined in apps/server/src/router/. Read the router files to see available procedures and their input schemas.

threads (apps/server/src/router/threads.ts)

threads.list — List all threads for the authenticated user
threads.get {id} — Get a thread by ID
threads.create {title?} — Create a new thread
threads.messages {id} — Get messages for a thread
threads.usage {id} — Get usage/cost for a thread
threads.patch {id, title} — Update thread title
threads.delete {id} — Delete a thread
threads.archive {id, archived} — Archive/unarchive a thread
threads.title {id, title} — Set thread title
threads.draft {id, draft} — Set/clear thread draft
threads.chat {id, messages} — Send a chat message (streaming)

dev (apps/server/src/router/dev.ts) — development only

dev.usersList — List all users
dev.usersImpersonate {userId?, email?} — Get API key for a user
dev.usersLogin {email, name?} — Find or create user and get API key

Prerequisites

Local dev server must be running (use .bin/dev start)
gcloud CLI must be authenticated (gcloud auth login)

When to Use

Inspecting server state or data through the API
Testing RPC endpoints
Debugging API behavior
Verifying changes to server procedures

When NOT to Use

For direct database access (use the database skill instead)
When the dev server is not running
