CLI reference
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
argent init | Install and configure MCP in the current workspace (--global default, --local for a committable devDependency). --no-telemetry turns telemetry off, and with --local also writes the committed project opt-out |
argent install | Alias for init |
argent update | Pull the latest version and refresh workspace configuration. Acts on the present install; --global and --local select explicitly when both coexist. |
argent uninstall | Unregister the MCP server and uninstall the package. --global and --local choose which install is removed; non-interactive runs never remove a coexisting global install. |
argent remove | Alias for uninstall |
argent mcp | Start an MCP server instance, used internally by the agent |
argent tools | List tools exposed by the tool-server (describe <name> for details) |
argent run | Invoke a tool by name |
argent flow | Run a flow by name or YAML path (argent flow --help for options) |
argent server | Manage the shared tool-server: start / status / stop / logs |
argent lens | Open Argent Lens bound to a fresh coding-agent session. Shows a picker when more than one agent is installed, or pass --agent to select claude, codex, gemini, opencode or cursor (macOS; behind the argent-lens flag, run argent enable argent-lens first) |
argent link | Route client requests to a remote tool-server |
argent unlink | Remove the persisted remote tool-server link |
argent enable | Enable a predefined feature flag (--scope project for project-local) |
argent disable | Disable a feature flag (--scope project for project-local) |
argent flags | List available feature flags and their state |
argent config | Manage configuration: list / get / set / unset, project and global |
argent secrets | List the secrets a {{secret:NAME}} placeholder can resolve, and their sources |
argent telemetry | Manage telemetry: status / enable / disable. Add --scope project to write the committed project file. false in either scope turns telemetry off |
Run argent --help for the full set of options, and argent --version to print the installed version.
