Configure the PromptConduit CLI
The PromptConduit CLI is configured via a JSON file at ~/.config/promptconduit/config.json and a few CLI subcommands. No shell environment variables required.

Get your API key from the dashboard at promptconduit.dev:

Switch environments
Switch between local development, staging, and production:
promptconduit config env use local
promptconduit config env use dev
promptconduit config env use prod
Debug mode
Enable verbose logging when troubleshooting hook installs:

Config file location
- macOS / Linux:
~/.config/promptconduit/config.json
- Windows:
%APPDATA%\promptconduit\config.json
Avoid setting PROMPTCONDUIT_API_KEY in your shell — it causes URL/key mismatch when switching environments. Use the config file instead.
