OpenPond CLI

Use this skill when an agent needs to create or manage OpenPond apps via the CLI, without MCP.

Quick setup

• Install: npm i -g openpond-code (or npx --package openpond-code openpond <cmd>)
• Auth: run openpond login or set OPENPOND_API_KEY
• Non-interactive login: openpond login --api-key opk_...

Common workflows

• Create internal repo and attach remote:
  • openpond repo create --name my-repo --path .
• Non-interactive push (tokenized remote):
  • openpond repo create --name my-repo --path . --token
  • git add . && git commit -m "init"
  • openpond repo push --path . --branch main
  • openpond repo push reads .git/config, temporarily tokenizes origin, and restores it after push.
• Watch deployments:
  • openpond deploy watch handle/repo --branch main
• List and run tools:
  • openpond tool list handle/repo
  • openpond tool run handle/repo myTool --body '{"foo":"bar"}'
• Account-level APIs:
  • openpond apps list [--handle <handle>] [--refresh]
  • openpond apps tools
  • openpond apps performance --app-id app_123
  • openpond apps agent create --prompt "Build a daily digest agent"

OpenTool passthrough

Use the CLI to run OpenTool commands via npx:

• openpond opentool init --dir .
• openpond opentool validate --input tools
• openpond opentool build --input tools --output dist

Config and URLs

• Optional env vars: OPENPOND_BASE_URL, OPENPOND_API_URL, OPENPOND_TOOL_URL, OPENPOND_API_KEY
• Cache file: ~/.openpond/cache.json (auto-refreshes on next use)
