​
How do I install the CLI?

See CLI Installation.

​
How do I authenticate the CLI?

See CLI Authentication. The CLI supports interactive setup, LINKMODEL_API_KEY, and one-off --api-key usage.

​
Can I use the same API key for the CLI and API?

Yes. The CLI uses the same LinkModel API key as direct API calls.

​
Can I use the CLI in scripts?

Yes. Use --json for automation:
For script patterns and exit codes, see CLI Automation.

​
Why does my task keep running after timeout or Ctrl-C?

Generation tasks run server-side. If the local CLI times out or is interrupted, resume with lkm image status <task_id> --wait or lkm video status <task_id> --wait.

​
Where do I find model-specific options?

Use Model Schemas to inspect the flags generated for each model.

​
Where do I find the full CLI guide?
