allium-cli 0.3.2

CLI for Allium blockchain data APIs

Allium CLI

Command-line interface for querying blockchain data across 80+ chains via the Allium platform. Supports realtime token prices, wallet balances, transaction history, and SQL queries against Allium's data warehouse.

Installation

curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Allium-Science/allium-cli/main/install.sh | sh

Or install directly with your preferred package manager:

uv tool install allium-cli   # recommended
pipx install allium-cli
pip install allium-cli

This installs the allium command. Run allium auth setup to configure authentication.

Authentication

The CLI supports four authentication methods. Run the interactive wizard, or pass arguments directly for scripted/CI setups:

# Interactive wizard (arrow-key selection)
allium auth setup

# Non-interactive one-liners
allium auth setup --method api_key --api-key sk-...
allium auth setup --method x402_key --private-key 0x... --network eip155:8453
allium auth setup --method x402_privy \
    --privy-app-id ... --privy-app-secret ... \
    --privy-wallet-id ... --network eip155:8453
allium auth setup --method tempo --private-key 0x... --chain-id 4217

Method	Description
API Key	Standard key from app.allium.so/settings/api-keys
x402 Private Key	Pay-per-call with USDC on Base -- no API key needed
x402 Privy	x402 via Privy server wallets -- no private key handling
Tempo MPP	Tempo micropayment protocol

Optional flags: --name <profile-name> (defaults to the method name), --no-active (skip setting as active profile).

Credentials are stored in ~/.config/allium/credentials.toml (file permissions restricted to owner).

Profile management

allium auth list          # Show all profiles
allium auth use <name>    # Switch active profile
allium auth remove <name> # Delete a profile

Global Options

--profile TEXT             Override the active auth profile for this command
--format [json|table|csv]  Output format (default: json)
-v, --verbose              Show progress details (run IDs, spinners, status)
--help                     Show help and exit

Commands

allium explorer -- SQL Query Execution

Run SQL queries on Allium's data warehouse. By default, the CLI polls silently and prints results. Use -v for progress details.

# Execute ad-hoc SQL (requires x402 or Tempo auth)
allium explorer run-sql "SELECT chain, COUNT(*) FROM crosschain.dex.trades GROUP BY chain LIMIT 10"

# Execute SQL from a file
allium explorer run-sql query.sql --limit 1000

# Run a saved query by ID with parameters
allium explorer run abc123 --param start_date=2026-01-01 --param chain=ethereum

# Just get the run ID without waiting
allium explorer run-sql "SELECT 1" --no-wait

# Check status of a query run
allium explorer status <run_id>

# Fetch results of a completed run
allium explorer results <run_id>

# Pipe CSV output directly
allium --format csv explorer run-sql "SELECT 1" > output.csv

Command	Description
run-sql <SQL_OR_FILE>	Execute ad-hoc SQL (x402/Tempo auth required)
run <QUERY_ID>	Execute a saved Explorer query by ID
status <RUN_ID>	Check query run status (created, running, success, failed, canceled)
results <RUN_ID>	Download results of a completed run

Options: --limit, --no-wait, --param key=value (repeatable), --compute-profile

allium mp -- Machine Payment Tracking

Track costs for x402 and Tempo micropayment API calls. Payments are logged automatically to ~/.config/allium/cost_log.csv.

# Total spend summary grouped by method and network
allium mp cost

# Full itemized payment history
allium mp cost list

# Export as CSV
allium --format csv mp cost list

# Clear the cost log
allium mp cost clear

Command	Description
mp cost	Total spend summary (grouped by method/network with call counts)
mp cost list	Full itemized history with per-row details
mp cost clear	Delete the cost log (with confirmation prompt)

allium auth -- Authentication Management

# Interactive setup wizard (arrow-key selection)
allium auth setup

# Non-interactive setup (for scripts/CI)
allium auth setup --method api_key --api-key sk-...
allium auth setup --method tempo --private-key 0x... --chain-id 4217

# Switch active profile
allium auth use <name>

# Delete a profile
allium auth remove <name>

JSON Body Override

All realtime commands support a --body flag that accepts either inline JSON or a path to a .json file. When provided, it overrides all other options:

# Inline JSON
allium realtime prices latest --body '[{"chain":"solana","token_address":"So111..."}]'

# From file
allium realtime prices latest --body tokens.json

Shell Completions

Tab-completion is available for all commands, subcommands, and options. Add one of the following to your shell config:

# Bash — add to ~/.bashrc
eval "$(_ALLIUM_COMPLETE=bash_source allium)"

# Zsh — add to ~/.zshrc
eval "$(_ALLIUM_COMPLETE=zsh_source allium)"

# Fish — add to ~/.config/fish/config.fish
_ALLIUM_COMPLETE=fish_source allium | source

Reload your shell to activate completions.
