Use when working with Halo CLI authentication, login, bearer token or basic auth, profile setup, profile switching, current profile inspection, or fixing missing keyring credentials. Trigger this skill whenever the user needs to log into Halo, manage Halo CLI profiles, switch profiles, or diagnose authentication issues.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Halo CLI Auth Use this skill for `halo auth` and `halo auth profile`. If authentication is not set up yet, do this first before running `post`, `single-page`, `plugin`, `theme`, `attachment`, `backup`, `moment`, `comment`, or `notification` commands. ## Commands ```bash halo auth --help halo auth login --help halo auth profile --help ``` Main workflows: - `halo auth login` - `halo auth current` - `halo auth profile list` - `halo auth profile current` - `halo auth profile get <name>` - `halo auth profile use <name>` - `halo auth profile delete <name>` - `halo auth profile doctor` ## Common Flows Login with bearer token: ```bash halo auth login \ --profile local \ --url http://127.0.0.1:8090 \ --auth-type bearer \ --token <token> ``` Login with basic auth: ```bash halo auth login \ --profile local \ --url http://127.0.0.1:8090 \ --auth-type basic \ --username admin \ --password <password> ``` Inspect and switch profiles: ```bash halo auth current halo auth profile list halo auth profile use production halo auth profile get production --json ``` Diagnose broken credentials: ```bash halo auth profile doctor halo auth profile delete production --force …

How to install
mdr add halo-dev/cli/halo-cli-auth@sha256:f747b3c732a911c4The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
