{
  "apiKey": "sk_live_...",
  "organizationId": "org_...",
  "organizationName": "Acme Corp",
  "apiUrl": "https://api.a24z.ai"
}

​
Options

​

​
--token [token]

Use a pre-existing API token (for automation): 
a24z login --token sk_live_your_token_here
Never commit tokens to version control or share them publicly.

Security

​
Where Credentials Are Stored

Credentials are stored in: 
~/.a24z/config.json
This file is created with secure permissions (600).

​
Protecting Your Credentials

# Ensure proper permissions
chmod 600 ~/.a24z/config.json

# Never commit to git
echo ".a24z/" >> ~/.gitignore

​
Revoking Access

To revoke access:
  1. Go to app.a24z.ai/settings/api-keys
  2. Find your CLI key
  3. Click “Revoke”
  4. Run a24z login again to get a new key

​
Re-authentication

To re-authenticate (e.g., after revoking a key): 
# Remove old config
rm ~/.a24z/config.json

# Login again
a24z login
Or just run a24z login - it will overwrite existing credentials.

​
Automation

For CI/CD and automation, use token-based authentication: 
# Set as environment variable
export A24Z_API_KEY=sk_live_your_token_here

# Or use --token flag
a24z login --token $A24Z_API_KEY

​
