# Introduction

> Manage NeetoRecord recordings, folders, tags, and analytics from the terminal.

`neetorecord` is the command line interface for NeetoRecord. It calls the same
v2 REST API that powers the web app, so anything you can read or change through
the [API](/api-reference/recordings/list) you can also do from a shell script, a
CI job, or an AI coding assistant.

## Why use the CLI

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="No API key to manage" icon="key">
    `neetorecord login` signs you in through the browser and stores a session
    per workspace. There is no key to paste into a config file or a CI secret.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Readable and scriptable" icon="terminal">
    Commands print a table on a terminal and JSON when piped. `--quiet` prints
    the bare identifier, which is what you want inside a shell pipeline.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Several workspaces at once" icon="layer-group">
    Sign in to as many subdomains as you need and choose one per command with
    `--subdomain`.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Ready for AI assistants" icon="robot">
    `--toon` trims output tokens, and `neetorecord setup` teaches Claude Code,
    Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Gemini, and Codex how to drive the CLI.
