Frontline CLI

The Frontline CLI is a unified command-line toolbox that ships two binaries:

• frontline — Public REST API client: agents, workflows, billing, tables, objects, tools, raw GET requests, and Claude Code skills setup.
• max — Max chat & admin client: send messages, manage conversations, interactive chat.

Both binaries share the same API key, so logging in once works for both.

npm install -g @getfrontline/cli
frontline auth login <api-key>
frontline auth whoami

Requires Node 18+.

Need an API key? In the Frontline app: click your user name in the bottom-left of the sidebar → Settings → Bring your own Agent → Create personal API key. Full breakdown (including the read-only GENERAL key flow under Developer) in Authentication.

• Getting started — install, login, profiles, output formats, global flags.
• Authentication — USER vs GENERAL keys, rotation, CI usage.

Browse the frontline and max groups in the sidebar — there is one page per top-level command group with every sub-command, option, and default.

Pages in those sections are auto-generated from the CLI source on every release. If a flag is missing here it isn't shipped yet.
