PromptMinder CLI

Overview

promptminder is a JSON-in / JSON-out CLI for managing prompts, tags, and teams via the PromptMinder API. Every success response goes to stdout; every error goes to stderr as {"error":{"message":"...","status":null}}.

Requires Node.js ≥ 20. Install the CLI first:

npm i -g @aircrushin/promptminder-cli

To update, run npm i -g @aircrushin/promptminder-cli@latest; check the installed version with npm list -g @aircrushin/promptminder-cli --depth=0.

Auth and Token

Choose environment auth or local login; either is sufficient. An old PROMPTMINDER_TOKEN overrides a newly saved login.

Token resolution order: --token flag -> PROMPTMINDER_TOKEN env var -> saved config.

# One-time interactive login (saves token to ~/.promptminder/config.json)
promptminder auth login --token pm_xxx
 
# CI / scripts: prefer env var, no saved state needed
export PROMPTMINDER_TOKEN=pm_xxx
promptminder prompt list

promptminder auth logout removes only the saved token, not PROMPTMINDER_TOKEN.

Quick Reference

promptminder auth login --token <token>
promptminder team list
promptminder prompt list   [--team <id>] [--tag <tag>] [--search <text>] [--page <n>] [--limit <n>]
promptminder prompt get    <id> [--team <id>]
promptminder prompt create --title <text> --content <text> [--description <text>] [--tags <csv>] [--version <text>] [--team <id>]
promptminder prompt update <id> [--title <text>] [--content <text>] [--team <id>]
promptminder prompt delete <id> --yes [--team <id>]
promptminder tag list      [--team <id>] [--include-public <true|false>]
promptminder tag create    --name <text> [--team <id>]
promptminder tag update    <id> --name <text> [--team <id>]
promptminder tag delete    <id> --yes [--team <id>]

Run promptminder help for up-to-date full usage.

Team Scoping

Pass --team <uuid> to target a non-personal workspace. Omitting --team targets the personal workspace. The flag is always --team, never --team-id.

promptminder prompt list --team team-uuid-xyz

Content Input Sources

prompt create and prompt update accept content three ways - use exactly one:

Agent Wrapper (promptminder-agent)

Use promptminder-agent in scripts and AI agent pipelines. Actions use dot notation, not space-separated subcommands. Input is a single --input JSON object, not individual flags.

# List prompts
promptminder-agent prompt.list
 
# Get a specific prompt
promptminder-agent prompt.get --input '{"id":"prompt-id"}'
 
# Create a prompt in a team
promptminder-agent prompt.create --input '{"title":"SQL helper","content":"Write clean SQL","team":"team-uuid"}'
 
# Pipe JSON from a file
cat payload.json | promptminder-agent prompt.create --stdin

Available actions: team.list, prompt.list, prompt.get, prompt.create, prompt.update, prompt.delete, tag.list, tag.create, tag.update, tag.delete.

Run promptminder-agent help for the full list with input field requirements.

Workspace Skill packages (0.2.0, unreleased)

As of 2026-09-10, npm latest is 0.1.3. Check promptminder help before using the following repository-only 0.2.0 commands; do not assume a public npm installation supports them.

Singular skill manages workspace packages; plural skills manages the bundled CLI instruction skill.

promptminder skill list [--team <id>] [--search <text>]
promptminder skill get <id> [--team <id>] [--version <label>]
promptminder skill import <directory> [--team <id>] [--version <label>]
promptminder skill update <id> <directory> [--team <id>] [--version <new-label>]
promptminder skill install <id> [--team <id>] [--version <label>] [--target codex] [--out-dir <directory>]

Agent actions: skill.list, skill.get, skill.import, skill.update, skill.install. Use id for get/update/install and directory for import/update in the JSON input; scope with team.

promptminder-agent skill.install --input '{"id":"<prompt-id>","team":"<team-id>","out-dir":"./reviewed-skills"}'

Omit --team for personal scope. IDs identify saved snapshots; --version selects a label in the same lineage. Team proposals must be approved before installation. Packages require SKILL.md with name and description, at most 200 files and 2 MB total. Installation defaults to project .cursor/skills, never runs package scripts, and refuses overwrites even with --force; choose a new --out-dir instead.

Error Triage

Common Mistakes

• Wrong agent wrapper syntax: promptminder-agent prompt list fails - use promptminder-agent prompt.list (dot notation).
• Wrong team flag: --team-id does not exist - use --team <uuid>.
• Piping with jq: pipe promptminder prompt list | jq . - stdout is always JSON.
• Token in CI: prefer PROMPTMINDER_TOKEN env var; avoid checking in the token or running interactive auth login in pipelines.
