AIStoreHub CLI (aistorehub / aihub)

The official command-line interface for AIStoreHub — the open registry and marketplace for autonomous AI systems, model instructions, agent workflows, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.

⚡ Quick Install

pip install aistorehub

Tip: Both aistorehub and aihub commands are installed. You can use whichever you prefer!

🚀 Key Features

• 1-Click MCP Auto-Configuration: Automatically injects MCP server configs into Claude Desktop, Cursor IDE, and Windsurf with automatic timestamped .bak safety backups.
• Instant Artifact Pull: Download prompts, schemas, instructions, and test datasets straight into your current directory with verified distribution telemetry.
• Interactive Terminal Search: Query AI systems, agents, and verified benchmarks without leaving your terminal.
• Provenance & Metadata Inspection: View upstream repository sources, licensing, and maintainer verification status before pulling.
• 10-Second Manifest Inspector: Inspect local folders to auto-detect system prompts, tool schemas, and capabilities before publishing.
• Team & Organization RBAC: Switch between personal workspaces and enterprise multi-tenant organizations seamlessly.

📖 Command Reference

1. Authenticate with Personal Access Token (PAT)

# Log in with your AIStoreHub API token:
aihub login

# Check authenticated user & organization roles:
aihub whoami

2. Search Systems & Agents

# Search by keyword, problem, or capability:
aihub search "sql optimizer"
aihub search "mcp-server-postgres"

3. Inspect System Metadata & Provenance

# Check version, license, upstream repo, and quickstart instructions:
aihub info mcp-server-postgres

4. Pull System Instructions & Code

# Pull into current directory:
aihub pull community/mcp-server-postgres

# Pull into a custom destination folder:
aihub pull community/mcp-server-postgres --dest ./my-tools

5. 1-Click MCP Server Installation

# Auto-configure into Claude Desktop and Cursor simultaneously:
aihub mcp community/mcp-server-postgres

# Or target a specific client:
aihub mcp community/mcp-server-postgres --client claude
aihub mcp community/mcp-server-postgres --client cursor
aihub mcp community/mcp-server-postgres --client windsurf

6. Inspect Local Folders for Publishing

# Auto-detect manifests, tools, and prompts in a directory:
aihub inspect ./my-agent-folder

⚙️ Environment Variables

You can optionally configure authentication, custom endpoints, and telemetry via environment variables:

• AISTOREHUB_TOKEN or AIHUB_TOKEN: Personal Access Token (PAT).
• AISTOREHUB_API_URL or AIHUB_API_URL: Custom API endpoint (default: https://aistorehub-be.onrender.com/api/v1).
• DO_NOT_TRACK=1, AISTOREHUB_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=1, or AISTOREHUB_TELEMETRY=0: Disables anonymous CLI usage telemetry.

🔒 Telemetry & Privacy (Transparent, Pseudonymous & Opt-outable)

AIStoreHub CLI records minimal, client-reported activity events (pull_succeeded and mcp_configured) to help community open-source maintainers evaluate discovery and distribution interest for their AI systems.

• What the CLI sends: Event name, target system ID, and CLI client version.
• What is NEVER collected: Passwords, Personal Access Tokens (PATs), shell commands, arguments, local file paths, directory contents, or private code.
• Server-side Network Metadata & Retention:
  • On ingestion, the backend derives a one-way 32-character SHA-256 hash of the incoming IP address (ip_hash) solely to enforce sliding-window duplicate suppression (120-second debounce) and protect against metric inflation.
  • Raw client IP addresses are discarded in-memory and are never written to application database tables or persistent application records. (Standard ephemeral cloud infrastructure ingress logs on hosting providers like Render remain subject to infrastructure provider retention policies).
  • Because deterministic cryptographic hashes are technically classified as pseudonymous identifiers (potentially linkable in fixed-IP environments), we provide full user-controlled opt-outs.
• Complete Opt-Out Controls (Supported in Code):
  • Per-Command Flag: Pass --no-telemetry on any command (aihub pull <target> --no-telemetry or aihub mcp <target> --no-telemetry).
  • Persistent Config: Run aihub telemetry disable (persists telemetry: false in ~/.aistorehub/config.json). Re-enable anytime with aihub telemetry enable.
  • Environment Variables: Export DO_NOT_TRACK=1, AISTOREHUB_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=1, or AISTOREHUB_TELEMETRY=0 in your shell profile.
  • Inspect Status: Run aihub telemetry status anytime to see whether telemetry is currently active or disabled.
  • Opt-Out Scope: When telemetry is disabled via any of the above mechanisms, the CLI client suppresses all event reporting logic—zero network calls are dispatched to telemetry endpoints.
