An unofficial command-line tool for [Proton](https://proton.me) - Mail, Drive, Calendar, Pass, and Contacts from your terminal, with real end-to-end encryption.
|
|
10
|
+
|
|
11
|
+
proton-cli implements the same authentication and encryption as the [Proton web client](https://github.com/ProtonMail/WebClients): SRP login, the PGP key hierarchy, and full end-to-end encryption, using [go-srp](https://github.com/ProtonMail/go-srp) and [gopenpgp](https://github.com/ProtonMail/gopenpgp).

cd proton-cli
|
|
139
|
+
go build .
|
|
140
|
+
```
|
|
141
|
+
|
|
142
|
+
## Quick start
|
|
143
|
+
|
|
144
|
+
### 1. Set your credentials
|
|
145
|
+
|
|
146
|
+
```bash
|
|
147
|
+
export PROTON_USER=alice@proton.me
|
|
148
|
+
export PROTON_PASSWORD=your-password
|
|
149
|
+
# export PROTON_TOTP=123456 # if 2FA is enabled
|
|
150
|
+
```
|
|
151
|
+
|
|
152
|
+
The session is saved to `~/.config/proton-cli/sessions/<profile>.json` after the first login and reused automatically.
|
|
153
|
+
|
|
154
|
+
### 2. Try it
|
|
155
|
+
|
|
156
|
+
```bash
|
|
157
|
+
proton-cli mail messages list
|
|
158
|
+
proton-cli drive items list
|
|
159
|
+
proton-cli --help # every command and subcommand accepts --help
|
|
160
|
+
proton-cli --version
|
|
161
|
+
```
|
|
162
|
+
|
|
163
|
+
## Core concepts
|
|
164
|
+
|
|
165
|
+
These apply across every command.
|
|
166
|
+
|
|
167
|
+
- **REF** - anywhere you see `REF`, pass either a full Proton ID or a search term (subject / name / URL / title, depending on the command). Ambiguous matches print candidates to stderr and exit `4`.
|
|
168
|
+
- **Short IDs** - in an interactive terminal, list commands shorten Proton IDs to 8 characters. proton-cli caches the IDs you have seen at `~/.config/proton-cli/idcache/<profile>.json`, so you can paste an 8-char prefix into any command that takes an ID. Pipes, redirection, and `--output json|yaml` always emit full IDs. Pass `--full-ids` to disable shortening. See [Short IDs](#short-ids) below.
|
|
169
|
+
- **Output** - `--output text|json|yaml` (default `text`). JSON/YAML use `snake_case` keys.
|
|
170
|
+
- **Exit codes** - `0` success · `1` user error · `2` auth · `3` not-found · `4` conflict / ambiguous · `5` network / server · `130` cancelled.
|
|
171
|
+
- **Create = ID on stdout** - creating commands print the new ID to stdout and `✓ …` to stderr, so `ID=$(proton-cli ... create ...)` works. `mail messages send` follows suit: it prints the message ID, and scheduled sends confirm the resolved local time.
|
|
172
|
+
- **Streaming I/O** - `-` means stdin (inputs) or stdout (outputs), e.g. `mail messages send --body -`, `drive items upload - /path`, `drive items download /path --output -`.
|
|
173
|
+
- **Dry run** - `--dry-run` on any mutating command previews without applying.
|
|
174
|
+
- **Cancellation** - `Ctrl+C` aborts in-flight operations.
|
|
175
|
+
|
|
176
|
+
### Short IDs
|
|
177
|
+
|
|
178
|
+
```
|
|
179
|
+
$ proton-cli mail messages list
|
|
180
|
+
ID FROM SUBJECT DATE ⚑
|
|
181
|
+
──────── ────────────── ─────────────── ──────────────── ─
|
|
182
|
+
NWM5AYGx alice@a.com Hello 2026-04-15 14:32
|
|
183
|
+
```
|
|
184
|
+
|
|
185
|
+
The short prefix pastes straight back into any command:
|
|
186
|
+
|
|
187
|
+
```
|
|
188
|
+
$ proton-cli mail messages read NWM5AYGx
|
|
189
|
+
Subject: Hello
|
|
190
|
+
...
|
|
191
|
+
```
|
|
192
|
+
|
|
193
|
+
Pipes and `--output json|yaml` always emit full IDs:
|
|
194
|
+
|
|
195
|
+
```
|
|
196
|
+
$ proton-cli mail messages list --output json | jq -r '.messages[].id'
|
|
197
|
+
NWM5AYGx_FIHWT2_QbBr-whe-bIE8rbZunzr5RhXGaihvQ43z2qcxcqFgVRwi7A5C-ADmohv7TjXfYbDEIHZPQ==
|
|
198
|
+
```
|
|
199
|
+
|
|
200
|
+
If a prefix isn't in your local cache (e.g. copied from another machine), run the matching list command first or use the full ID. Ambiguous prefixes (two cached IDs share the first 8 chars) exit `4` with both candidates listed.
|
|
201
|
+
|
|
202
|
+
## Configuration
|
|
203
|
+
|
|
204
|
+
Credentials and connection settings resolve in this order: **a flag overrides the profile-scoped env var (`PROTON_<PROFILE>_X`), which overrides the plain env var (`PROTON_X`).** See [Profiles](#profiles-multi-account).
|
|
205
|
+
|
|
206
|
+
### Environment variables
|
|
207
|
+
|
|
208
|
+
| Variable | Description |
|
|
209
|
+
|---|---|
|
|
210
|
+
| `PROTON_USER` | Proton account email |
|
|
211
|
+
| `PROTON_PASSWORD` | Account password (required for encrypted operations) |
|
|
212
|
+
| `PROTON_TOTP` | TOTP code (if 2FA is enabled) |
|
|
213
|
+
| `PROTON_API_URL` | API base URL (default: `https://mail.proton.me/api`) |
|
|
214
|
+
| `PROTON_APP_VERSION` | App version header (default: `Other`) |
|
|
215
|
+
|
|
216
|
+
### Profiles (multi-account)
|
|
217
|
+
|
|
218
|
+
A profile is just a name. Each profile has its own session file (`~/.config/proton-cli/sessions/<profile>.json`) and its own set of profile-scoped environment variables. Select the active profile with the `--profile` flag or the `PROTON_PROFILE` environment variable (the flag wins; both fall back to `default`):
|
|
219
|
+
|
|
220
|
+
```bash
|
|
221
|
+
proton-cli --profile work mail messages list
|
|
222
|
+
# or make it the default for your shell session:
|
|
223
|
+
export PROTON_PROFILE=work
|
|
224
|
+
proton-cli mail messages list
|
|
225
|
+
```
|
|
226
|
+
|
|
227
|
+
For every setting, the active profile is consulted **scoped-first, then unscoped**: `PROTON_<PROFILE>_X` takes precedence over the plain `PROTON_X`. `<PROFILE>` is the profile name upper-cased, with any non-alphanumeric character replaced by `_` (so `work` becomes `WORK`, `my-work` becomes `MY_WORK`). This applies to every env-backed setting (`USER`, `PASSWORD`, `TOTP`, `API_URL`, `APP_VERSION`):
|
|
228
|
+
|
|
229
|
+
```bash
|
|
230
|
+
export PROTON_PROFILE=work
|
|
231
|
+
export PROTON_WORK_USER=alice@company.com
|
|
232
|
+
export PROTON_WORK_PASSWORD=work-password
|
|
233
|
+
proton-cli mail messages list # uses PROTON_WORK_*, falling back to PROTON_*
|
|
234
|
+
```
|
|
235
|
+
|
|
236
|
+
Only the per-profile session file is written to disk; all other wiring lives in flags and the environment.
|
|
237
|
+
|
|
238
|
+
## Usage

For any endpoint not covered by a high-level command:
|
|
514
|
+
|
|
515
|
+
```bash
|
|
516
|
+
proton-cli api GET /drive/volumes
|
|
517
|
+
proton-cli api POST /calendar/v1 --body '{"Name":"Work",...}'
|

## Scripting
|
|
527
|
+
|
|
528
|
+
proton-cli is built to compose in shell pipelines.
|
|
529
|
+
|
|
530
|
+
```bash
|
|
531
|
+
# stdout is the new ID on create - capture it directly
|
|
532
|
+
LABEL=$(proton-cli mail labels create --name Work --color "#8080FF")
|
|
533
|
+
|
|
534
|
+
# JSON + jq for full IDs and fields
|
|
535
|
+
proton-cli mail messages list --output json | jq -r '.messages[].id'
|
|
536
|
+
|
|
537
|
+
# exit codes drive control flow (0 ok · 3 not-found · 4 ambiguous)
|
|
538
|
+
if ! proton-cli contacts get "jane"; then
|
|
539
|
+
echo "no unique match (exit $?)"
|
|
540
|
+
fi
|
|
541
|
+
|
|
542
|
+
# streaming: pipe a Drive file straight into another tool
|
|
543
|
+
proton-cli drive items download /report.pdf --output - | gpg --encrypt --recipient me ...
|
|
544
|
+
|
|
545
|
+
# preview any mutation first
|
|
546
|
+
proton-cli mail messages trash --unread --older-than 30d --dry-run
|
|
547
|
+
```
|
|
548
|
+
|
|
549
|
+
## How it works
|
|
550
|
+
|
|
551
|
+
1. **Session creation** - creates an unauthenticated session via `POST /auth/v4/sessions`.
|
|
552
|
+
2. **SRP authentication** - Secure Remote Password login with [go-srp](https://github.com/ProtonMail/go-srp), with 2FA/TOTP support.
|
|
553
|
+
3. **Session persistence** - per profile, saves the auth tokens plus the salted key password **encrypted** with a random client key held server-side. The key password is never written to disk in cleartext, and revoking the session makes the saved blob undecryptable. See [Security](#security).
|
|
554
|
+
4. **Key hierarchy** - unlocks User key → Address keys → per-service keys (Calendar, Drive, Contacts).
|
|
555
|
+
5. **End-to-end encryption** - encrypts/decrypts using [gopenpgp](https://github.com/ProtonMail/gopenpgp).
|
|
556
|
+
6. **Auto-refresh** - refreshes expired tokens automatically.
|
|
557
|
+
|
|
558
|
+
### Encryption details
|
|
559
|
+
|
|
560
|
+
| Service | Encrypt with | Sign with |
|
|
561
|
+
|---|---|---|
|
|
562
|
+
| Calendar events | Calendar key (session key) | Address key |
|
|
563
|
+
| Drive files | Node key (session key per block) | Address key |
|
|
564
|
+
| Drive names | Parent node key | Address key |
|
|
565
|
+
| Contacts | User key | User key |
|
|
566
|
+
| Mail | Session key | Address key |
|
|
567
|
+
| Pass items | AES-256-GCM (item key) | N/A (symmetric) |
|
|
568
|
+
| Pass vaults | AES-256-GCM (vault key) | N/A (symmetric) |

## Human verification (CAPTCHA)
|
|
571
|
+
|
|
572
|
+
Proton's anti-bot may demand a CAPTCHA at login. proton-cli opens a small webview window via an embedded helper, you solve it, and the original command retries automatically. No extra install is needed - the helper is `//go:embed`-ded into release binaries.
|
|
573
|
+
|
|
574
|
+
- **Linux desktop** needs `libwebkit2gtk-4.1` and `libgtk-3` installed.
|
|
575
|
+
- **macOS / Windows** need nothing (system WebKit / WebView2).
|
|
576
|
+
- **Headless** environments (server, container, no GUI) can't display the webview, so proton-cli exits with an error - run the command on a desktop machine instead.
|
|
577
|
+
- **`go install` builds** don't embed the helper. Install a [release binary](#install) if you hit a CAPTCHA.
|
|
578
|
+
|
|
579
|
+
## Security
|
|
580
|
+
|
|
581
|
+
proton-cli saves a per-profile session file at `~/.config/proton-cli/sessions/<profile>.json` (mode `0600`). The salted key password that unlocks your PGP keys is stored **encrypted** with a random 256-bit client key that lives server-side, so:
|
|
582
|
+
|
|
583
|
+
- the key password is never written to disk in cleartext, and
|
|
584
|
+
- revoking the session (from the Proton apps) makes a leaked copy of the file undecryptable.
|
|
585
|
+
|
|
586
|
+
The file still contains the session refresh token, so treat it as a secret. proton-cli is unaudited; see [`SECURITY.md`](SECURITY.md) for the full storage model, the vulnerability-reporting process, and hardening recommendations.
|
|
587
|
+
|
|
588
|
+
## Limitations
|
|
589
|
+
|
|
590
|
+
A few constraints are inherent to Proton's design or platform:
|
|
591
|
+
|
|
592
|
+
- **Colors** - labels, folders, calendars, and contact groups accept only Proton's 20 fixed accent colors; the CLI validates `--color` and lists the allowed values on error.
|
|
593
|
+
- **Calendar deletion** - `calendar calendars delete` is password-scoped and needs `PROTON_PASSWORD`.
|
|
594
|
+
- **Search lag** - `search` and `list` read Proton's eventually-consistent server-side index; a just-sent or just-deleted message can take a few seconds to appear or disappear. Confirm a mutation by ID with `read` rather than re-searching a subject.
|
|
595
|
+
- **CAPTCHA** - can't be solved headlessly, and `go install` builds don't embed the helper (see [Human verification](#human-verification-captcha)).
|
|

## Development
|
|
600
|
+
|
|
601
|
+
Requires [devbox](https://www.jetify.com/devbox) and [direnv](https://direnv.net/):
|
|
602
|
+
|
|
603
|
+
```bash
|
|
604
|
+
direnv allow
|
|
605
|
+
go build . # quick build
|
|
606
|
+
just lint # gofmt + golangci-lint
|
|
607
|
+
just build # release-shaped binary (embeds the CAPTCHA helper)
|
|
608
|
+
```
|
|
609
|
+
|
|
610
|
+
Tests are integration tests that run against the live Proton API and require `PROTON_USER` / `PROTON_PASSWORD`.
