cornerstones-client 0.1.4

Public-safe Cornerstones client CLI for managed market context access

Cornerstones Client

Public-safe CLI for the managed Cornerstones product.

What it does

cornerstones-client gives downstream operators and agents a compact local client for:

• storing the managed product portal URL and API URL separately
• storing an issued product API key locally
• starting a limited anonymous browser-compatible trial against the hosted portal
• minting and caching a short-lived discovery trial token
• reading public-safe discovery surfaces such as guide and changelog
• verifying a real authenticated API key against /v1/status

Current command surface

python -m pip install cornerstones-client
cornerstones-client trial start
cornerstones-client guide
cornerstones-client auth login --api-key <issued-api-key>
cornerstones-client verify
cornerstones-client fx quote --symbol EURUSD
cornerstones-client fx bars --symbol EURUSD --timeframe 1h --count 50
cornerstones-client fx indicators --symbol USDJPY --timeframe H1 --bars 200
cornerstones-client context fx --symbol XAUUSD
cornerstones-client evidence feed --asset XAUUSD --limit 5
cornerstones-client context gold --symbol XAUUSD
cornerstones-client context stocks --symbol AAPL

Defaults are hosted and user-safe:

• portal: https://www.usecornerstones.com
• API: https://api.usecornerstones.com

Local operators can still override for development:

cornerstones-client auth set-base-url --base-url http://127.0.0.1:3001
cornerstones-client auth set-api-base-url --api-base-url http://127.0.0.1:8100

Install

cornerstones-client is now live on PyPI.

Install from PyPI:

python -m pip install cornerstones-client

Development/source install still works when you need local edits:

python -m pip install .

For machine-checkable local release readiness on a packaging host:

python scripts/verify_release_readiness.py

That preflight verifies:

• pytest -q
• local build + twine check
• clean-venv wheel smoke install
• current PyPI/TestPyPI package presence
• current GitHub publish-secret presence

Human-side first-publication runbook:

• docs/release/first-publication-runbook.md

For local packaging verification by hand:

python -m build
python -m pip install dist/cornerstones_client-0.1.1-py3-none-any.whl
cornerstones-client --help

Trial and auth notes

• guide and changelog automatically request a short-lived discovery token if no full API key is present yet.
• verify is intentionally stricter and requires a real issued API key.
• Trial and discovery surfaces are limited-scope onboarding helpers, not a claim that every authenticated surface is available anonymously.

Config

The client stores local state in the user config directory as cornerstones-client/config.json.

Stored fields currently include:

• portal_base_url
• api_base_url
• api_key
• trial_cookie
• trial_token

Status

This package is a public-safe client surface under active productization and is now published on PyPI. Current focus is truthful onboarding, stable discovery flows, and keeping package-side docs aligned with the managed Cornerstones product truth.

Recent managed-product truth now reflected upstream through discovery and changelog surfaces includes:

• signed trial-backed discovery access for bounded guide / changelog flows
• objective rolling correlation evidence in cross-asset context
• continued hardening around bounded stocks and options workflows

The client is intentionally thin: many managed-service feature additions should flow through server-owned discovery and changelog surfaces without requiring a package code change.

Repository automation

This repo now includes GitHub Actions workflows for:

• CI verification on push and pull request
• package build + metadata checks
• smoke install of built wheel
• manual or release-driven publish workflow for TestPyPI and PyPI releases
