Why

The CLI had not been touched since August. An audit against connect-api found nothing broken on the wire (protocol, tool names, session, OAuth all still match), but the docs described commands that don't exist, --pretty and TTY detection were no-ops, docs opened the retired docs host, .goreleaser.yml used a removed key that would have failed the next tag, and the CLI could not preview/confirm, check balance, or read the REDPINE_* env vars the SDKs use.

What changed

Toolchain / CI

  • Go 1.27.1 (go.mod + all workflows), go get -u, staticcheck/govulncheck/gosec pinned.
  • .goreleaser.yml: format: → formats: (GoReleaser v2). Description no longer says "Connect platform".

Behaviour

  • REDPINE_API_KEY / REDPINE_BASE_URL first, CONNECT_API_KEY / CONNECT_SERVER_URL as fallbacks, resolved identically everywhere (including logout, which skipped the env before).
  • Output mode: JSON when stdout is not a terminal, pretty in a TTY; --json (now a plain bool) and --pretty force either. The README always claimed this; it never worked.
  • MCP tool results with isError: true become the error envelope, exit 1. Previously an expired preview or an insufficient-balance confirm printed as success with exit 0.
  • 401 on the MCP handshake → auth_error, exit 2.
  • Transport: 120 s timeout, Accept: application/json, text/event-stream, MCP-Protocol-Version, User-Agent: redpine-cli/<version>.
  • The update check is a one-line stderr notice; it no longer blocks every command.
  • redpine update fetches checksums.txt and verifies the archive before replacing the binary; refuses releases without checksums. GitHub calls carry a User-Agent and timeouts.

Commands

  • New preview <collection> <query> (free teasers + price, same --filter flags as search), confirm <queryId> [resultId...] (alias unlock), balance, and collections list (the README documented it; it did not exist).
  • whoami reports sandbox keys; auth status is now the same command.
  • docs [topic] → docs.redpine.ai/docs/<slug> with aliases for the old short names.
  • search --filter help lists the current indexed fields.

Docs: README and AGENTS.md rewritten to describe the binary that ships.

Deliberately not done (server-side gaps, noted in AGENTS.md)

Multi-collection search (MCP search has no collections field), include_figures (CLI drops image blocks), assisted search and quota (REST-only).

Verification

go build, go vet, go test -race (9 packages, new tests for env precedence, output mode, tool errors, docs URLs, checksum parsing), staticcheck, govulncheck: all clean. Smoke-tested piped vs TTY output and the error envelope. Codex review: 2 findings, both fixed (tool isError propagation, login output mode).

After merge

Tag v0.0.6; GoReleaser publishes and updates the Homebrew tap. The formats: fix is required for that tag to build.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added preview, confirm/unlock, and balance commands.
    • Added sandbox authentication status details and improved API key configuration.
    • Added checksum verification during self-updates.
    • Improved JSON and human-readable output, including automatic JSON for piped output.
    • Added MCP tool-error reporting and more reliable network handling.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Updates no longer block command execution when a newer version is available.
    • Improved server URL and authentication fallback resolution.
  • Documentation

    • Expanded CLI, search, purchasing, MCP, configuration, installation, and troubleshooting guidance.

Toolchain: Go 1.27.1, dependencies updated, CI tools pinned, GoReleaser v2
archive key (format -> formats) so the next tag builds.

Behaviour:
- REDPINE_API_KEY / REDPINE_BASE_URL read first, CONNECT_* kept as fallbacks;
  same order as the SDKs.
- Output honours the terminal: JSON when piped, pretty in a TTY, --json and
  --pretty force either. --pretty was a no-op and piped output was never JSON.
- Tool results flagged isError render as the error envelope, exit 1.
- HTTP 401 on the MCP handshake exits 2 (auth), not 4 (server).
- Transport: 120s timeout, Accept incl. text/event-stream, MCP-Protocol-Version
  and User-Agent headers.
- Update check is a stderr notice, no longer a hard block on every command.
- redpine update verifies the archive against the release checksums.txt.
- logout resolves the server URL like every other command (env was skipped).

Commands:
- New: preview, confirm (alias unlock), balance, collections list.
- whoami labels sandbox keys; auth status is whoami.
- docs opens docs.redpine.ai with aliases for the old slugs.
- search --filter help lists the current indexed fields.

Docs: README and AGENTS.md describe the binary that ships.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The CLI adds preview, confirmation, balance, and documentation workflows. It standardizes environment and output handling, adds MCP error and timeout handling, verifies update checksums, updates release automation, and expands project documentation.

Changes

Configuration, MCP, and output foundations
go.mod, internal/config/*, internal/factory/factory.go, internal/mcp/*, internal/output/*

New commands authenticate, manage MCP sessions, invoke tools with refresh handling, and format results.
Update verification and release automation
internal/command/update/*, internal/update/check.go, .goreleaser.yml, .github/workflows/*, CONTRIBUTING.md
Updates verify release checksums before atomic replacement. Workflows pin tool versions and use Go 1.27.1.
CLI and development documentation
README.md, AGENTS.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, internal/command/docs/*
Documentation covers commands, configuration, output behavior, MCP requirements, releases, URL mapping, and known limitations.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to c693c

The CLI refresh adds update and authentication behavior, but known logout error-path failures can prevent credential cleanup or target the wrong server, Windows self-updates can fail, and pretty login output can omit confirmation. These issues should be resolved or explicitly accepted before merge.

67-68: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Resolve server overrides before the config fallback.

When f.Config() fails, Lines 67-68 return a client for DefaultServerURL before checking --server, REDPINE_BASE_URL, or CONNECT_SERVER_URL. internal/command/auth/logout.go then loads the session cache for the override URL but sends DeleteSession to the default server. A malformed or unreadable config can therefore leave the intended server session active.

Proposed fix
 f.MCPClient = func(token string) *mcp.Client {
-	cfg, err := f.Config()
-	if err != nil {
-		return mcp.NewClient(config.DefaultServerURL, token)
-	}
 	serverURL := f.ServerFlag
 	if serverURL == "" {
 		serverURL = config.ServerURLFromEnv()
 	}
 	if serverURL == "" {
-		serverURL = cfg.ServerURLForEnv()
+		cfg, err := f.Config()
+		if err != nil {
+			serverURL = config.DefaultServerURL
+		} else {
+			serverURL = cfg.ServerURLForEnv()
+		}
 	}
 	return mcp.NewClient(serverURL, token)
 }

At Line 223, the selected pretty callback does not write to ios.Out. Therefore, redpine auth login --pretty returns success with no result output. Write the success message in this callback.

Handle a failed configuration load before using cfg.

When f.Config() returns a nil config with an error, cfg.ServerURLForEnv() panics if no flag or environment URL is set. Handle the error before using the configuration fallback so local credential cleanup still runs.

Use a Windows-specific replacement sequence for the running executable.

At internal/command/update/update.go:238, os.Rename(tmpName, execPath) can fail because Windows does not replace the running redpine.exe image. On Windows, first move execPath to a sidecar, install tmpName at execPath, and remove the sidecar on a later invocation after the process exits. Restore the sidecar if installation fails. Keep the current atomic replacement path on Unix.
