Stage 08 / Connect the Chunky CLI
Connect the Chunky CLI
Wire the `chunky` CLI on your machine to Untitled project. Three small steps: install, auth, then bridge if you want the in-platform Chunky terminal to run commands locally. Chunk-level operations live on /assembly.
Install the CLI
Requires Node.js 18 or later. The CLI is published to npm as modular-chunks-cli.
Global install (Node 18+)
npm install -g modular-chunks-cli
Verify the install worked
chunky --version
Authenticate + link to this project
Get a CLI token, then run chunky init in your project folder. The init prompt asks for the platform URL ( https://www.modularchunks.com), the token, and the project ID.
Project ID: no active project
Run in your project folder, paste the token + project ID
chunky init
Confirm the CLI points at this platform
chunky config get platformUrl
Bridge to the in-platform Chunky terminal
Optional. Lets the Chunky side panel run real commands on your machine via /local <cmd>. Run this in any project folder; copy the printed token, then click Chunky in the header and type /connect <token>.
Start MCP-over-HTTP + print a session token
chunky serve --connect
In the Chunky chat: paste the printed token
/connect <token>
Manage your CLI tokens
View, rotate, or revoke tokens linked to this account. Tokens are SHA-256-hashed at rest; the platform never stores the raw value after creation.
Need to dispatch chunks to your CLI?
Per-chunk pull commands, autopilot, validate, and sync live on Node Assembly.
