terminalCLI

Use the Kick CLI for repeatable commands, exports, scripts, shell pipelines, scheduled checks, and agentic workflows.

The Kick CLI lets you run Kick workflows from a terminal, shell script, or automation job. It talks to the same Kick API as the web app and uses an approved Kick credential.

Use the CLI when you want:

  • A command you can repeat during every close.

  • JSON output for another tool or agent.

  • A script that checks transactions, reports, or activity.

  • A scheduled job or CI workflow.

  • A local MCP server with kick mcp serve.

The CLI usually takes a few more minutes to set up than MCP because you need the kick command available on your computer. It is more powerful for repeatable and agentic work because commands are explicit, inspectable, and easy to rerun.

Safe default

Start with read-only commands and bounded result sets:

If the wrong user or workspace appears, stop before running a broader command.
