What is Capgo CLI Usage?
Capgo CLI Usage is an entry point for understanding and routing requests across the Capgo command surface. It helps an agent handle general CLI questions, app setup, diagnostics, OTA operations, native builds, and organization commands—then directs specific work to the appropriate Capgo skill when one is available.
As part of Openclaw Skills, it also explains how to connect to Capgo using its hosted or local MCP server. This keeps common guidance accessible while helping users choose the right tools, resolve authentication issues, and apply least-privilege access.
Capgo CLI Usage Use Cases
- Get general guidance on Capgo CLI commands or app setup.
- Handle requests that span multiple Capgo command groups or have an unclear workflow.
- Diagnose CLI problems with
doctororprobe, including fixing login before investigating downstream authentication errors. - Route OTA bundle and channel work to
capgo-release-management. - Route native cloud build requests to
capgo-native-builds. - Route account and organization requests to
capgo-organization-management. - Connect an agent to Capgo data and operations through an available MCP server.
How Capgo CLI Usage Works
- Identify whether the request is a general Capgo CLI question or a clearly defined workflow.
- If the request matches a specialized workflow, hand it off: OTA bundles and channels to release management, native cloud builds to native builds, and organization or account commands to organization management.
- For general CLI tasks, select a relevant command such as
init,login,doctor,probe, or anappcommand. - If authentication fails, resolve
loginbefore troubleshooting commands that depend on it. - When agent connectivity is needed, use the hosted MCP for supported Capgo operations or the local CLI MCP for tasks requiring local build-folder access, native build requests, or
doctor.
Capgo CLI Usage Setup
- Create a Capgo account at https://console.capgo.app if needed. The source notes a 14-day free trial with no credit card required.
- Use the CLI through
npx; the recommended current form is:
npx @capgo/cli@latest doctor
- For local CLI MCP access, start the stdio server with:
npx @capgo/cli@latest mcp
- For hosted MCP access in Claude Code, add the server and then use
/mcpto sign in:
claude mcp add --transport http capgo https://api.capgo.app/mcp
- Hosted MCP uses OAuth sign-in or an
Authorization: Bearer <Capgo API key>header. Because it includes destructive tools, use an API key with only the permissions required; use read-only access for reporting. See https://capgo.app/docs/ai/mcp/ for MCP documentation.
Capgo CLI Usage Data Schema & Taxonomy
This skill does not define a local data schema or generate files. It organizes guidance by command and workflow:
| Area | Commands or routed skill | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| General CLI | init, login, doctor, probe, mcp |
Setup, authentication, diagnostics, connectivity |
| App management | app add, app list, app delete, app set, app debug |
Common app operations |
| OTA releases | capgo-release-management |
Bundles and channels |
| Native builds | capgo-native-builds |
Native cloud build workflows |
| Account and organization | capgo-organization-management |
Organization and account commands |
MCP access is divided between the hosted server at https://api.capgo.app/mcp and the local CLI server started with npx @capgo/cli@latest mcp. The hosted server covers apps, bundles, channels, progressive rollouts, devices, stats, update health, native build status and logs, webhooks, and push notifications. The local server is needed to upload a bundle from the build folder, request a native build, or run doctor.
Capgo CLI Usage Advanced Features
- Routes clearly scoped tasks to dedicated Capgo skills instead of keeping them at the general CLI layer.
- Supports two MCP connection options: hosted streamable HTTP with OAuth or an API key, and local stdio through the Capgo CLI.
- Provides a least-privilege security recommendation for the hosted MCP, including read-only API keys for reporting.
- Distinguishes hosted MCP operations from local tasks that require access to build artifacts or CLI diagnostics.
- Includes an authentication troubleshooting rule: fix
loginbefore investigating downstream CLI command failures.
