Setup Commands

connect

Select which bootstrapped vault identity to use.

# Select a vault
sikkerkey connect vault_abc123

# Select and alias it
sikkerkey connect vault_abc123 --alias prod

# Show current vault
sikkerkey connect

# List all bootstrapped vaults
sikkerkey connect --list

# Clear default vault
sikkerkey connect --clear

After connecting, use sikkerkey unlock to add projects. Accepts vault IDs or aliases.

If only one vault is bootstrapped on the machine, connect auto-selects it.

unlock

Add a project to this machine. Validates the machine has access before saving.

# Add a project
sikkerkey unlock proj_xyz789

# Add with an alias
sikkerkey unlock proj_xyz789 --alias production

The CLI verifies project access with the server before saving. If the machine doesn't have access to the project, the unlock fails with an error.

After unlocking, secrets in this project are available via get, export, etc.
