sprouts-cli

Terminal helper for Sprouts IDE pairing: starts a device session, opens the browser to /ide/connect, and saves the IDE access token to ~/.sprouts/ide-token.json.

Usage

npx sprouts-cli login

To clear the saved token (then run login again):

npx sprouts-cli logout

The VS Code / Cursor extension stores its own copy in secret storage — use Command Palette → “Sprouts: Sign out” there too, or it may keep using the old session.

End-user install context (extension, MCP, troubleshooting) lives on the marketing site at /docs/ide — see website/app/docs/ide. Monorepo pointers: docs/PUBLIC_RESOURCES.md, docs/DEPLOYMENT.md.

API URL

Default is http://127.0.0.1:3000 (local Sprouts backend). Override if your API is elsewhere:

• Env: SPROUTS_API_URL=https://your-tunnel.example.ngrok-free.dev npx sprouts-cli login
• File: ~/.sprouts/config.json → { "apiUrl": "https://..." } (no trailing slash)

When production is live at https://api.getsprouts.io, set one of the above or export SPROUTS_API_URL before running.

After login, the CLI prints install hints. Set SPROUTS_EXTENSION_URL to your published Open VSX page (e.g. https://open-vsx.org/extension/sprouts/sprouts-companion) so the message links correctly. Extension id for cursor --install-extension is sprouts.sprouts-companion.

For Cursor-only in-character chat (no server LLM), configure packages/sprouts-mcp and the repo skill .cursor/skills/sprouts/SKILL.md.
