Vendian CLI

Command-line tools for signing in to Vendian and running local agent workflows.

npm install -g @vendian/cli
vendian
vendian login
vendian init --output-dir ./agents
vendian create "My Agent" --output-dir ./agents
vendian cloud local run --collection-id YOUR_COLLECTION --path ./agents/my-agent --input-json '{}'
vendian cloud local serve --agents-dir ./agents

Commands

vendian
vendian login
vendian doctor
vendian update
vendian init --output-dir ./agents
vendian create "My Agent" --output-dir ./agents
vendian validate ./agents/my-agent --runtime
vendian test ./agents/my-agent --dry-run --mock-credentials
vendian models
vendian cloud local run --collection-id YOUR_COLLECTION --path ./agents/my-agent --input-json '{}'
vendian cloud local serve --agents-dir ./agents

Run vendian with no arguments to open the interactive menu. It shows your current endpoint connections and guides common local workflows, including running one local agent immediately or starting the long-lived local daemon.

vendian login opens a browser sign-in, prepares the local runtime, and stores the credentials needed by the CLI for the selected endpoint. vendian setup is kept as an alias for existing users.

vendian doctor checks the local installation. vendian update refreshes the managed runtime without changing your agents.

After login, regular vendian cloud ... commands are forwarded to the managed runtime installed by the CLI.

Agent authoring commands are also forwarded to the managed Python SDK CLI. vendian init writes the current SDK-owned authoring docs into .vendian-docs/, and vendian create scaffolds agents from the SDK templates. Updating the managed runtime refreshes these docs and templates with the Python SDK. The CLI remembers workspaces initialized with vendian init and refreshes their .vendian-docs/ automatically after vendian update or a managed auto-update.

Local Data

Vendian stores its managed runtime and CLI state under your user profile:

• Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Vendian\cli
• macOS/Linux: ~/.vendian/cli

To use a different location:

VENDIAN_CLI_HOME=/path/to/vendian-cli vendian login

Agent Dependencies

Keep agent-specific packages in each agent's requirements.txt. The Vendian CLI manages the Vendian runtime separately so agent dependencies stay focused on the agent's own code.
