Scalekit CLI

Auth stacks for AI coding tools — one command away.

Documentation · Slack Community

Install Scalekit auth extensions (and skills) into your AI coding tools — Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, and others — with auto-detection, interactive prompts, and dry-run previews.

Quick start

npx @scalekit-inc/cli setup

That's it. The wizard detects which tools you have installed and walks you through setup.

Install

For repeated use, install globally:

npm install -g @scalekit-inc/cli

Then run with scalekit (or the short alias sk).

Usage

Interactive wizard

scalekit setup

Auto-detects installed tools, lets you pick which ones to set up, and installs the auth extensions.

You can also install Scalekit skills (for Cline, Windsurf, Aider, and other agents) from the unified Authstack:

scalekit setup          # choose "Scalekit skills" in the wizard
scalekit setup --skip-skills   # stacks only

Direct install

Skip the wizard and target a specific tool:

scalekit setup cursor               # or: sk setup cursor
scalekit setup claude -y            # or: sk setup cc -y
scalekit setup copilot --dry-run    # or: sk setup ghcp --dry-run

Updating

scalekit update                    # update the CLI itself
scalekit extension update cursor   # or: sk ext up cursor

update keeps the Scalekit CLI current. To update auth stacks (extensions) for a specific tool use extension update (or ext up).

Uninstall

scalekit extension uninstall cursor
scalekit extension uninstall claude -y   # skip confirmation
scalekit ext rm codex -y

Extension commands

For scriptable, noun-verb access:

scalekit extension install cursor    # or: ext i cursor
scalekit extension update cursor     # or: ext up cursor
scalekit extension install cc        # alias for claude
scalekit extension uninstall cursor  # or: ext rm cursor
scalekit extension list              # or: ext ls
scalekit extension status            # check all versions

[!TIP] Every install command supports --dry-run to preview what will run, and -y / --yes to skip confirmation prompts — useful for CI/CD.
