CLI for Tipalti Solutions — scaffolded from the AgentCulture sibling pattern. Read-only explorer over Tipalti REST v2 (Payees, Invoices, Bills) plus the agent-first affordances (learn, explain, whoami).

The first resident user of this CLI is an LLM agent. Every verb supports --json, default human-mode output is markdown, errors carry machine-readable remediation hints, and one verb invocation = one upstream HTTP request.

Install

uv tool install tipalti
# or
pipx install tipalti

Quickstart — agent-first affordances

tipalti --version           # 0.1.0
tipalti learn               # structured self-teaching prompt for agents
tipalti learn --json        # machine-readable form
tipalti explain tipalti     # root markdown doc
tipalti explain auth        # env-var setup
tipalti explain payee       # docs for the payee noun group

Quickstart — Tipalti REST v2 (read-only)

export TIPALTI_CLIENT_ID=...
export TIPALTI_CLIENT_SECRET=...
export TIPALTI_ENV=sandbox        # or production (default: sandbox)

tipalti whoami                                       # markdown principal block
tipalti whoami --json                                # JSON envelope

tipalti payee list --limit 25                        # markdown table
tipalti payee list --filter "status eq 'Active'"     # raw $filter passthrough
tipalti payee list --json --cursor <token>           # paginate by cursor
tipalti payee get <id>                               # markdown record
tipalti payee get <id> --json                        # raw API record

tipalti invoice list --limit 25
tipalti invoice get <id>
tipalti bill list --limit 25
tipalti bill get <id>

Bearer tokens are cached at $XDG_CACHE_HOME/tipalti/token-<env>.json (file mode 0600). Delete the file to force re-auth.

Status

Pre-1.0. v0.1.0 ships read-only verbs over Tipalti REST v2's Payees, Invoices, and Bills resources, plus the agent-first affordances and a real whoami probe. Mutations, iFrame URL generation, webhooks, SOAP, tax forms, and KYC land in later releases.
