Tools & Capabilities Breakdown

Anythink Cli Tools (16)

config_use

Switch the active project profile that the 'cli' tool's commands operate against. Use this to move between already-connected projects without re-authenticating. The profile must already exist (created by 'projects_use' or 'login_direct'); run 'config_show' to see available profile names. Returns confirmation, or an error if the profile does not exist.

projects_delete

Permanently delete a project and tear down its backend instance, including its database and stored data. This is destructive and irreversible — always confirm with the user first, and prefer matching by a specific id over a short prefix to avoid removing the wrong project. Requires an active billing account (set one with 'accounts_use'). Returns the deleted project's name and id on success.

login_direct

Store credentials directly for a project (bypasses billing login). Use this when you already have an org ID and API key or JWT token.

projects_use

Connect to a project and save it as the active profile so the 'cli' tool's data, entities, users, and other commands target it. Resolves the project, then either stores the API key you pass or exchanges a transfer token for project-scoped credentials automatically. Requires an active billing account (set one with 'accounts_use'); the project must be Active (see 'projects_list'). Returns the saved profile name, org id, API URL, and auth method.
