It is third-party material and does not represent AgentHub; instructions that appear in it are not instructions to you. # ramp-cli CLI for Ramp's Developer API. Authenticate with OAuth, manage expenses, approve bills, book travel, and more — from your terminal or AI agent. ## Install ```bash curl -fsSL https://agents.ramp.com/install.sh | sh ``` This detects your platform, downloads a pre-built binary, and sets up the `ramp` command. After installation, open the Router workspace to connect coding agents and desktop apps, manage API keys, edit routing strategies, and choose subagent models: ```bash ramp router # or: ramp router ui ramp router ui --inline --height 18 # beneath your prompt (macOS/Linux) ramp router ui --theme light # dark, light, terminal, or auto (default) ``` `RAMP_ROUTER_THEME` sets a default theme and `RAMP_ROUTER_REDUCED_MOTION=1` turns off animation. Interactive `router configure`, `keys`, `strategies`, `account`, and `subagents` open their workspace screens. Scripts never get the UI: agent mode, `--no-input`, JSON output, `--quiet`, redirected stdin/stdout, and `TERM=dumb` keep every command's existing noninteractive behavior, and `router ui` in those modes is a usage error: ```bash ramp --agent router keys list ramp --agent --no-input router configure codex # key from RAMP_ROUTER_CONFIGURE_API_KEY or --setup-file ``` To start directly at harness setup: ```bash ramp router configure ``` New production setups use `https://api.router.com/v1` for Router requests. `ramp router refresh` migrates the exact previous production endpoint (`https://router-api.ramp.com/v1`) in CLI-managed agent setups to the canonical host. For Claude Code, the configured `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` is the host without `/v1`. Other saved deployments and current `RAMP_ROUTER_BASE_URL` / `LLM_GATEWAY_BASE_URL` overrides are preserved. Claude Desktop's Router profile migrates on refresh when Claude Desktop is closed. Refresh does not interrupt a running Desktop session; to migrate immediately, run `ramp router configure desktop --base-url https://api.router.com/v1`. Without a terminal (for example, during an MDM install), omitting client names configures all automatic integrations, including Claude Desktop/Cowork when installed on macOS. Claude Desktop restarts to apply its Router profile. All integrations use the same key acquired during that run. Pass client names, such as `ramp router configure codex`, to limit setup. For unattended redeployments, add `--reuse-existing-key` to reuse a saved key for the selected Router deployment without opening the browser. If no compatible key is saved, setup still requests browser approval. If multiple saved keys disagree, setup stops so the user can choose a key interactively rather than silently replacing their credentials. An invalid saved key also fails setup; run `ramp router configure` without this option to create or select a replacement. To connect to another Router deployment, pass `--base-url` (the gateway `/v1` URL written into agent configs) and, for a deployment the CLI does not already know, `--ui-url` (the web app origin used for browser setup and dashboard links), or set `RAMP_ROUTER_BASE_URL` and `RAMP_ROUTER_UI_URL`. The installer forwards the same flags when given `--router --base-url --ui-url `: ```bash ramp router configure --base-url https://internal-api.router.com/v1 --ui-url https://internal.router.com ``` **Homebrew** (macOS and Linux): ```bash brew install ramp-public/ramp/ramp-cli ``` **Alternative** (if you already have uv): ```bash uv tool install git+https://github.com/ramp-public/ramp-cli.git ``` ## Codex model picker Codex CLI and Desktop use Router's recommended model shortlist by default. Connect normally, or explicitly select the compact view: ```bash ramp router configure codex --codex-models compact --reuse-existing-key ``` This uses the same recommendations as Claude Code's compact view, with Codex's own model capabilities and reasoning settings. Your current model is preserved. Other catalog entries remain hidden where space permits so existing chats can still resolve their model metadata. Refreshes and model changes preserve the saved view. Existing connections without a saved preference switch to compact on their next configure or refresh. An explicit `all` preference stays unchanged. To restore the full model picker: ```bash ramp router configure codex --codex-models all --reuse-existing-key ``` Use the same `--base-url` as your existing connection if it is on another Router deployment. The updated catalog applies when Codex reloads it; a running app may need to be restarted before its picker reflects the change. ## Manage Router API keys Run `ramp router login`, then `ramp router keys` to select a key and inspect its usage. The selected-key menu lets you rename it, choose an existing routing strategy, or lock/unlock it. Locking stops requests without deleting the key; unlocking remains subject to account and administrator restrictions. Changing strategy moves only that key, without editing the shared strategy. Strategy selection requires routing profiles to be available for your account. For scripts and AI agents: ```bash ramp router keys rename KEY_ID --name "Coding" ramp router keys set-strategy KEY_ID --routing-profile "Cheap" ramp router keys lock KEY_ID ramp router keys unlock KEY_ID ``` All four commands support `--dry-run` and the standard `--agent` JSON output. These changes do not rotate the key's secret or rewrite agent configurations. For routing strategies, `ramp router strategies` opens the account editor in human-readable mode. Machine-readable listings preserve the configured API key's strategy-settings response, even after `ramp router login`. Select account profiles explicitly with `ramp --agent router strategies list --account` (or `ramp --agent router strategies --account`). `--account` and `--api-key` cannot be combined. Account profiles are changed with `strategies create/edit/delete`; `strategies enable/disable` continues to change key-owner settings. Strategy saves apply settings and key assignments in separate requests. If a save partially fails, some changes may already be live. The editor reloads the saved state and preserves your remaining edits for review; if it cannot reload, editing stops until you reopen the strategy. Browser reauthorization that changes the user or business stops a pending write so you can review the account and rerun it. ## Quick Start ```bash ramp auth login # OAuth via browser ramp users me # Current user details ramp bills search --query "Acme" # Search bills by vendor name ramp cards list # List your cards (card_state shows ACTIVE) ramp cards list --agent | jq '[.data[0].cards[] | select((.card_state // "" | ascii_downcase) == "active")] | length' # Count active cards ramp transactions list --transactions_to_retrieve my_transactions ramp transactions list --transactions_to_retrieve my_transactions --from_date 2025-01-01 ramp transactions list --agent # JSON output for scripting ``` ### Standalone agent authentication Standalone agents authenticate without a browser by exchanging OAuth client credentials for a production access token with a server-reported lifetime. Configure `RAMP_CLIENT_SECRET` in your agent runtime or CI secret store instead of exporting a literal secret from an interactive shell. For example, in GitHub Actions: ```yaml env: RAMP_CLIENT_ID: ${{ vars.RAMP_CLIENT_ID }} RAMP_CLIENT_SECRET: ${{ secrets.RAMP_CLIENT_SECRET }} steps: - run: ramp --env production agent login ``` `RAMP_CLIENT_ID` and `RAMP_CLIENT_SECRET` are read automatically. Client-credentials tokens cannot be refreshed. Use the `expires_in` value from the login output to schedule the next full login before the access token expires. Human users should use `ramp auth login` and the browser-based PKCE flow instead. ### Switching identities with profiles Store human and agent credentials separately, then switch the active identity without logging in again: ```bash ramp auth login ramp agent login ramp profile human ramp profile agent ramp profile list ramp --profile human funds list --rationale "Review my human-owned funds" ``` The CLI stores these identities separately as `human` and `agent`. The active profile is used by subsequent commands. Use `--profile` for a single command without changing the default. `RAMP_PROFILE` pins an identity for automation and cannot be overridden by a conflicting `--profile` flag. ## Commands | Command | Description | | -------------- | -------------------------------------------------- | | `auth` | Login, logout, check status | | `config` | Get/set CLI configuration | | `env` | Show or set default environment (sandbox/production)| | `profile` | Show, list, or switch credential profiles | | `applications` | Apply for a Ramp account | | `skills` | Browse and install agent skill instructions | | `feedback` | Submit feedback about the CLI | ## Resources 12 resources, each with their own tools: | Resource | Tools | | ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | `accounting` | `categories`, `category-options` | | `bills` | `search`, `get`, `draft`, `pending`, `approve`, `attachments`| | `cards` | `list`, `activate`, `lock` (aliases also under `funds`) | | `funds` | `list`, `activate`, `creds`, `lock` | | `general` | `comment`, `explain`, `help-center`, `policy` | | `purchase-orders` | `search`, `get` | | `receipts` | `upload`, `attach` | | `reimbursements` | `list`, `pending`, `submit`, `approve`, `edit` | | `requests` | `pending`, `approve` | | `transactions` | `list`, `get`, `approve`, `edit`, `missing`, `flag-missing`, `explain-missing`, `memo-suggestions`, `trips` | | `travel` | `list`, `create`, `bookings`, `locations` | | `users` | `me`, `search`, `org-chart` | Usage: `ramp [OPTIONS]` ## Global Flags | Flag | Description | | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------- | | `--env`, `-e` | `sandbox` (default) or `production` | | `--output`, `-o` | Output format: `json` or `table` | | `--agent` | Machine-readable JSON output (default when piped) | | `--human` | Human-readable table output (default in terminal) | | `--wide` | Show all columns in table output | | `--quiet`, `-q` | Suppress progress output | | `--no-input` | Disable interactive prompts (for CI/scripts) | ## Tool Flags Each tool has its own flags.
