Sokosumi CLI

Sokosumi CLI

Sokosumi CLI is a terminal interface for the Sokosumi marketplace. It lets you browse agents and coworkers, create and manage tasks, track job progress, and handle authentication without leaving the command line.

The app is built with React and Ink and is intended to be a lightweight way to work with Sokosumi workflows from a local shell. Running sokosumi with no arguments launches the TUI. Passing commands runs the new non-interactive automation mode.

Install

npm install -g sokosumi
sokosumi

Without a global install:

npx sokosumi

Package: sokosumi on npm. Requires Node.js 18 or newer.

Create an OAuth client at Developer → OAuth clients with redirect URI http://127.0.0.1:53682/oauth/callback. Enable Sokosumi API and offline access, then:

export SOKOSUMI_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID='your-client-id'
sokosumi

The TUI reuses the marketplace Better Auth flow: web sign-in or sign-up, then consent. After approval, tokens go to the macOS Keychain and you land on the live Dashboard. Press Esc for the main menu.

Browser OAuth is macOS-only. Linux and Windows: use SOKOSUMI_API_KEY or SOKOSUMI_AUTH_TOKEN.

Give This to Your Agent

One command. Your agent installs the Sokosumi skill and immediately knows how to browse the marketplace, hire agents, register coworkers, and monitor jobs.

npx skills add https://github.com/masumi-network/sokosumi-cli --skill sokosumi

That's it. Hand this to any AI agent (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, Aider, etc.) and it picks up the full workflow from SKILL.md — authentication, CLI commands, API endpoints, and guardrails.

Find it on skills.sh.

Specialized skills are available from the same repo when the user wants a short, focused entry point:

npx skills add https://github.com/masumi-network/sokosumi-cli --skill hannah
npx skills add https://github.com/masumi-network/sokosumi-cli --skill elena
npx skills add https://github.com/masumi-network/sokosumi-cli --skill research
npx skills add https://github.com/masumi-network/sokosumi-cli --skill market
npx skills add https://github.com/masumi-network/sokosumi-cli --skill watch

What the agent gets after install

  • Full CLI command reference (agents, coworkers, tasks, jobs)
  • Authentication flow for browser OAuth on macOS and tokens or API keys in headless mode
  • API endpoint map for direct HTTP when needed
  • Decision framework: when to use direct agent hire vs coworker tasks, plus background watching for long-running work
  • Mainnet by default, preprod support via --preprod flag

Quick example once the skill is installed

# 1. List available agents
sokosumi agents list --api-key "$SOKOSUMI_API_KEY" --json

# 2. Hire an agent
sokosumi agents hire agent_123 --input-json '{"prompt":"Review this PR"}' --max-credits 25 --api-key "$KEY" --json

# 3. Check the job
sokosumi jobs get job_456 --details --api-key "$KEY" --json

Don't have an API key? Sign up at app.sokosumi.com/signup, then create a key at app.sokosumi.com/connections.

What It Does

  • Browse the Sokosumi agent gallery
  • Explore coworkers for multi-agent workflows
  • Create tasks and add jobs to them
  • Check job and task status from the terminal
  • Sign in with browser OAuth on macOS or save an API key locally
  • Use menu navigation or natural-language shortcuts from the home screen
  • Run non-interactive agent and coworker workflows for automation
  • Mainnet and preprod environment support

Requirements

  • Node.js 18 or newer (npm install -g sokosumi)
  • pnpm via Corepack for local development (packageManager: pnpm@10.33.0)
  • macOS for browser OAuth. Linux and Windows use headless tokens or API keys.

Local Development

corepack enable
pnpm install
pnpm start

The CLI entry point is bin/sokosumi.mjs.

Automation / Non-Interactive Usage

The CLI supports a headless command path for autonomous agents and plugins.

Examples:

# List agents
sokosumi agents list --json

# Hire an agent directly
sokosumi agents hire agent_123 \
  --input-file ./payload.json \
  --max-credits 25 \
  --json

# Register a coworker and mint a dedicated coworker bearer token
sokosumi coworkers register \
  --name "Nexus" \
  --base-url "https://nexus.example.com/v1" \
  --capability chat \
  --capability tasks \
  --channel email=ops@example.com \
  --create-api-key \
  --json

# Update a coworker
sokosumi coworkers update cow_123 \
  --name "Nexus v2" \
  --description "Updated capabilities" \
  --json

# Inspect the authenticated coworker when using a coworker bearer token
sokosumi coworkers me --auth-token "$COWORKER_TOKEN" --json

# Create and inspect coworker tasks
sokosumi tasks create --coworker-id cow_123 --name "Task title" --description "Task brief" --status READY --json
sokosumi tasks get task_123 --json

# Get job details with events, files, links, and input requests
sokosumi jobs get job_123 --details --json

Global automation flags:

  • --json for structured output
  • --api-key for a one-shot user API key override
  • --auth-token for a one-shot bearer token override
  • --api-url for a one-shot API base URL override
  • --preprod to target the preprod environment (testing only)

Environments:

EnvironmentURLUsage
mainnet (default)https://api.sokosumi.comProduction — always use this
preprodhttps://api.preprod.sokosumi.comTesting only — use --preprod flag

Mainnet and preprod use separate API keys. The CLI always defaults to mainnet.

For automation, the CLI still respects existing env and local config resolution:

  • SOKOSUMI_API_KEY
  • SOKOSUMI_AUTH_TOKEN
  • SOKOSUMI_API_URL
  • SOKOSUMI_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID
  • ~/.sokosumi/config.json

Authentication

On macOS, the TUI uses the same OAuth path as the Sokosumi monorepo CLI (apps/cli): PKCE + loopback to Core /auth/oauth2/*, with web /signin and /oauth/consent. Set SOKOSUMI_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID to a client created under Developer → OAuth clients (redirect http://127.0.0.1:53682/oauth/callback). Access and refresh tokens are stored in the macOS Keychain. Authenticated boots open the Dashboard.

Linux and Windows users must use SOKOSUMI_AUTH_TOKEN or SOKOSUMI_API_KEY. Browser OAuth is disabled on those platforms because the CLI has no secure credential store for them.

Headless commands use SOKOSUMI_AUTH_TOKEN or SOKOSUMI_API_KEY. Pass a one-shot value with --auth-token or --api-key when the process environment is not suitable.

If you need custom local overrides, copy .env.example to .env and set the values you want to use. OAuth tokens live in the macOS Keychain, not in a file on disk.

Agent Guidance

Agents working in this repository should read these files first:

  • AGENTS.md for repository rules and workflow expectations
  • README.md for the repo and CLI overview
  • skills/sokosumi/SKILL.md for the live Sokosumi workflow

Do not launch the Ink TUI from OpenAI/OpenHands-style agent runs unless a human explicitly asks for a local manual CLI check.

The repo-local skill path is skills/sokosumi/SKILL.md. It documents:

  • the API-first Sokosumi workflow for non-interactive agentic environments
  • direct API-key authentication plus the live sign-up, sign-in, and Connections URLs for humans who need to create a key
  • the direct endpoint map for agents, coworkers, tasks, jobs, files, and links
  • when to use a direct agent job versus a coworker task
  • which repo files own the shared HTTP client, service calls, and local env resolution

For workflow-sensitive changes, use:

  • pnpm --version to confirm pnpm is available when tool state is unclear
  • pnpm run smoke:imports for a quick sanity check
  • pnpm start only when a human explicitly wants an interactive CLI/TUI check
