Interactive CLI menu

LauncherForge uses guided menus instead of requiring long commands with flags.

Main options

The exact labels may change between releases, but the guided workflow remains the same. The CLI displays the relevant controls in the terminal. Typically:
  • Arrow keys move through options.
  • Enter confirms a selection.
  • Escape or the displayed back option returns to the previous menu.
  • Text prompts accept typed values such as versions or changelogs.

Authentication

When no active session exists, the CLI requests your LauncherForge credentials. After login, it loads the workspaces, games, branches, and permissions available to your account.
OAuth accounts may need a LauncherForge password before they can authenticate in tools that require email and password.

Errors

If a workflow fails, the CLI should display the cause and return you to a usable menu instead of closing unexpectedly. Read Common errors for the most frequent causes.
