Maven — maven
Admin operations for a Maven course: cohorts, students, contacts, promo
codes, reviews, and broadcasts. Auth is a one-time maven auth login.
maven cohorts list
maven students add 12345 --email student@example.com
maven reviews list --all -o reviews.json
maven contacts export -a course_alumni -o alumni.csv
Descript — descript
Turn a Zoom cloud recording into a Descript project, and look up project links.
Auth is DESCRIPT_API_KEY from Settings > API tokens.
descript auth
descript add-zoom "office hours" --copy
descript add-zoom "office hours" --dry-run # costs nothing
descript ls --since 2026-07-01 --duration --table
descript url "office hours"
add-zoom imports every view Zoom recorded and combines them into one multicam
sequence. Descript bills media minutes per file for the full length of each, so a
55 minute meeting with six files costs about 330 media minutes. The cost is shown
before anything is spent, and re-running the same recording re-attaches to the
first import instead of paying twice.
