Connection
- Authentication: API key (API token).
Install the Cargo CLI: npm install -g @cargo-ai/cli. Then run: cargo-ai login —email you@company.com. A new account starts with 100 free credits and needs no card. The —email flag mails a one-time code and creates the account and a workspace on first use. In an agent or sandbox shell with no terminal to prompt at, the first —email call sends the code and exits; re-run it with —code. Once logged in, the CLI stores a token at ~/.cargo/credentials. Copy the token value. Alternatively: cargo-ai login —oauth (opens a browser), or set the CARGO_API_TOKEN environment variable with an existing token. The token grants full access to the workspace — no additional scopes need to be configured.See Cargo’s documentation.
