luplo-cloud 0.7.0

CLI for luplo cloud — bundles `luplo` (lp) and adds `lps` for cloud auth, key management, and MCP wiring.

luplo-cloud

Single-install bundle for luplo on the hosted cloud. Pulls in luplo (the OSS engine) and adds lps, the cloud companion for log-in, API keys, workspace bootstrap, and editor wiring. After installing this package you have two binaries:

Binary	Source	Role
lp	luplo	The luplo CLI / stdio MCP server. Talks to local Postgres by default, or — when .luplo declares type = "remote" — through the hosted cloud HTTP API. 23 MCP tools.
lps	luplo-cloud	Cloud-only commands: login, logout, whoami, init, mcp-config, glossary suggest.

Install

uv tool install luplo-cloud
# or:  pipx install luplo-cloud
# or:  pip install luplo-cloud

luplo (which provides lp) is pulled in transitively — no separate install step.

Three deployment modes

luplo runs in one of three modes. You pick by how .luplo is configured (or by env var). The MCP tool surface is the same in all three; only the data path changes.

Mode	Where data lives	How it's reached	Auth	Set up by
Local	Your Postgres	lp → psycopg pool → PG (no HTTP)	none	lp init (creates .luplo with type="local")
Remote	Hosted luplo cloud	lp → HTTPS → api.luplo.io	OAuth or API key	lps login + lps init
Cloud /mcp direct	Hosted luplo cloud	Claude Desktop/Code → HTTPS → api.luplo.io/mcp (FastMCP, no lp process)	OAuth or API key	lps login + lps mcp-config

If you're a single dev with your own Postgres → Local. If you're a team on the hosted cloud and want lp to operate as if data were local → Remote. If you just want Claude to talk to your cloud project with no local process → Cloud /mcp direct.

Auth model (cloud paths only)

Token	How obtained	Where it lives	Used by
OAuth (browser)	lps login	OS keyring	Desktop / interactive
API key (lupk_…)	Issued in the web app	LUPLO_CLOUD_API_KEY env	Servers / CI / IaC

API keys are scoped to a single organization (and optionally a subset of projects) at issuance — least privilege by default.

lp and lps agree on token resolution priority for cloud paths: LUPLO_CLOUD_API_KEY env wins, then the OS keyring entry written by lps login. So a single lps login is enough for lp mcp in remote mode to start working — no env-var copy/paste.

Quickstart — Desktop, hosted cloud (most common)

lps login                                # browser opens; OAuth tokens → keyring
cd /path/to/your/project
lps init                                 # picker: org + project → writes ./.luplo
lp mcp                                   # 23-tool stdio MCP server, remote mode

lps init writes a .luplo TOML in the current directory like:

[backend]
type = "remote"
server_url = "https://api.luplo.io"

[project]
id = "<project-id>"
name = "Your project"

The file is safe to commit — it has no secrets. Subsequent lp calls in this directory automatically read the binding.

lps init flag matrix:

lps init                                  # full picker
lps init --org <org-id>                   # org locked, project picker
lps init --org <org-id> --project <id>    # non-interactive, bind existing
lps init --org <org-id> --new-project foo # non-interactive, create new
lps init --force                          # overwrite an existing .luplo

Quickstart — Cloud /mcp direct (no local process)

If you want Claude Desktop / Code to hit the cloud directly without running an lp process:

lps login                                # if you don't already have a key
lps mcp-config | tee ~/.claude.json      # emits {"mcpServers": {"luplo": {url, transport, auth}}}

Default Claude config locations:

• macOS Claude Desktop: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
• Linux Claude Desktop: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
• Claude Code: ~/.claude.json (global), or claude mcp add … (project)

Quickstart — Server / CI (headless)

No browser, no keyring backend required.

# 1) Issue a key in the web app:
#    https://app.luplo.io/settings/api-keys → "+ New API key"
#    Pick org, scope (all projects or specific), expiry (≤ 365 days).
#    The raw lupk_... is shown ONCE — copy it now.

# 2) Inject the key (e.g. /etc/environment, systemd EnvironmentFile, or
#    your secret manager).
export LUPLO_CLOUD_API_KEY=lupk_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

# 3) Smoke test.
lps whoami                               # prints email + actor_id

# 4a) Emit a Claude config that uses the key as bearer.
lps mcp-config | tee ~/.claude.json

# 4b) Or wire MCP directly via Claude Code (no config file edit).
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http luplo \
  https://api.luplo.io/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $LUPLO_CLOUD_API_KEY"

Configuration

Env var	Default	Purpose
LUPLO_CLOUD_API_KEY	(unset)	Headless bearer (lupk_...)
LUPLO_CLOUD_SERVER_URL	https://api.luplo.io	API base — override for staging
LUPLO_CLOUD_APP_URL	https://app.luplo.io	Web app base — override for staging
LUPLO_DB_URL	postgresql://localhost/luplo	Local-mode DB (used by lp when .luplo says type="local" or no .luplo is found)

Commands

lps (this package):

• lps login — browser-based OAuth, tokens stored in OS keyring
• lps logout — revoke the local refresh token + clear keyring
• lps whoami — print the email + actor_id of the authenticated principal
• lps init — write a .luplo workspace file binding cwd to a cloud project
• lps mcp-config — emit a mcpServers JSON entry pointing at cloud /mcp

lp (from the bundled luplo package — see the luplo README for the full list):

• lp mcp — start the stdio MCP server (local or remote, per .luplo)
• lp init, lp items, lp work, lp brief, lp impact, lp check, … (23 MCP tools as CLI subcommands too)
