FAQ
Do I need my own model API key?
No. The CLI authenticates with your Boost account and uses backend-managed model credentials.
Is CLI login the same as web login?
They are linked to the same account, but managed as separate sessions (terminal vs browser).
Why does boost account status show effective: null?
Your account has no active subscription yet, or system synchronization has not completed.
Why am I getting Unauthorized?
Your session expired or is invalid. Run:
boost auth logout
boost auth login
Can I use user and organization billing?
Yes. Use:
boost account checkout userboost account checkout organizationboost account manage userboost account manage organization
