git clone <repository-url>
cd flowstatecli
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh

Or install manually:

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .

🎯 Operating Modes

FlowState CLI supports three lightweight operating modes:

1. Hybrid Mode (Default)

• Prefers cloud sync when online
• Falls back to local storage when offline
• Best of both worlds

2. Local Mode

• Completely offline operation
• Local SQLite database
• Zero external dependencies

3. Cloud Mode

• Uses cloud API when available
• Requires internet connection
• Traditional online experience

⚙️ Configuration

Quick Setup

flowstate auth login [e-mail]

Mode Management

# Switch modes anytime
flowstate mode set local     # Go offline-only

💾 Local Storage

All data is stored locally in ~/.flowstate/:

• auth.json - Local authentication tokens

📊 Dependencies

Minimal and lightweight:

• Core: typer, rich, httpx (for cloud features)
• Database: sqlalchemy (with SQLite)
• Auth: bcrypt, PyJWT (for local auth)
• Notifications: plyer (optional system notifications)
