CLI Introduction

SuperBox CLI - Manage MCP servers end to end

Overview

The SuperBox CLI is a Python (Click) tool for managing MCP servers from initialization to deployment. Commands map directly to the backend implementation in superbox.ai/src/superbox/cli.

All CLI documentation matches the actual backend implementation. For detailed setup and usage, visit https://superbox.1mindlabs.org/docs

Installation

# Clone backend repository
git clone https://github.com/areebahmeddd/superbox.ai.git
cd superbox.ai

# Create virtual environment
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate  # macOS/Linux
# or .\.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1 (Windows)

# Install CLI
python -m pip install -e .[cli]

Quick Start

1. Authenticate

   superbox auth login --provider google
   # or
   superbox auth login --provider email
   

   Device flow for Google/GitHub is supported; email/password works too.

2. Init server config

   superbox init
   

   Creates superbox.json with name, repo URL, entrypoint, license, etc.

3. Publish with scans

   superbox push --name my-mcp
   

   Runs SonarCloud, tool discovery, Snyk, GitGuardian, and Bandit, then uploads to R2 registry.

4. Configure client

   superbox pull --name my-mcp --client cursor
   

   Clients supported: vscode, cursor, antigravity, claude, chatgpt.

5. View logs

   superbox logs --name my-mcp
   

   Prints wrangler tail instructions for streaming logs from the Cloudflare Worker.
