put.io (kaput CLI)

This skill uses the unofficial kaput CLI to operate put.io from the command line.

If you also have the chill-institute skill installed, you can:

  • use chill.institute to start a transfer (“send to put.io”), then
  • use this skill to verify and monitor that the cargo is actually arriving.

Install

  • Requires Rust + Cargo.
  • Install:
    cargo install kaput-cli
    
  • Ensure kaput is on your PATH (typically ~/.cargo/bin).

Authenticate (device-code flow)

  1. Run:
    kaput login
    
  2. It prints a link + short code (e.g. https://put.io/link + ABC123).
  3. User enters the code in the browser.
  4. The CLI completes and stores a token locally.

Check auth:

bash skills/putio/scripts/check_auth.sh

Common actions (scripts)

All scripts auto-locate kaput (supports KAPUT_BIN=/path/to/kaput).

  • List transfers:

    bash skills/putio/scripts/list_transfers.sh
    
  • Add a transfer (magnet / torrent URL / direct URL):

    bash skills/putio/scripts/add_transfer.sh "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:..."
    
  • Search files:

    bash skills/putio/scripts/search_files.sh "query"
    
  • Status (transfers; optionally account):

    bash skills/putio/scripts/status.sh
    SHOW_ACCOUNT=1 bash skills/putio/scripts/status.sh
    

Raw CLI

For advanced actions:

kaput --help
kaput transfers --help
kaput files --help

Security notes

  • Do not paste passwords into chat. Use kaput login device-code flow.
  • kaput stores credentials locally (token file). Treat it as sensitive and avoid sharing it.
  • Avoid running kaput debug in shared logs/screenshots (may reveal local config details).
