14
+ permission to buy tickets or list tickets for sale.
15
+
16
+ ## Install
17
+
18
+ Use Node.js 22.12 or later and `tixbit@0.2.3` or later. Check the installed
19
+ commands before use:
20
+
21
+ ```sh
22
+ npx tixbit@latest --version
23
+ npx tixbit@latest --help

- Discovery, listings, seatmaps, event URLs, link-only checkout, and machine
15
- purchase require no TixBit API key. Link machine purchase needs the buyer's
16
- Link sign-in, spend approval, and Node.js 22 or later. Tempo machine purchase needs an mppx account.
17
- Both need an email address supplied by the buyer. Never infer the email from
18
- git, OS, or account state.
19
-
20
- For Stripe Link MPP payments, pair this skill with Stripe's official
21
- `@stripe/link-cli` MCP server. Add `{"mcpServers":{"link":{"command":"npx","args":["@stripe/link-cli","--mcp"]}}}`
22
- to a host that supports local MCP servers. The buyer must connect their Link
23
- account. First inspect TixBit's `402` Stripe offer and exact order total, then
24
- request an approved `shared_payment_token` spend for that network ID and total.
25
- Use Link's `mpp pay` tool with the same purchase URL and POST body, including the
26
- original UUID v4 idempotency key. Keep the one-time token inside Link CLI. The
27
- published `tixbit purchase` command selects Tempo, and `tixbit buy --confirm`
28
- cannot create a Link spend request. If the host does not expose Link's spend
29
- request and MPP tools, use browser checkout until that host adds them.

34
+ npx tixbit listings "$EVENT_ID" --size 100 --sort asc --json
35
+ npx tixbit seatmap "$EVENT_ID" --json
36
+ ```
37
+
38
+ Search prices are discovery data. Check the event date, venue, listing details,
39
+ quantity options, and freshness before selecting a ticket. A listing is not a
40
+ reservation. For a refreshed quote, use `tixbit quote "$EVENT_ID" --json`.
41
+
42
+ ## Buy with Stripe Link
43
+
44
+ Get the buyer's approval for the exact event, listing, quantity, delivery email,
45
+ and maximum **total USD ticket charge**. Only then start a Link spend request.
46
+ The buyer must sign in to Link on this machine first:
47
+
48
+ ```sh
49
+ npx @stripe/link-cli auth login
50
+ npx tixbit link start "$LISTING_ID" --quantity 1 \
51
+ --email buyer@example.com --max-price 25.00
52
+ ```
53
+
54
+ `link start` checks the current total against the cap and returns an
55
+ `approvalUrl` and `orderReference`. It does not charge the buyer. Create the
56
+ approval only when the buyer is ready. Send the URL immediately, then stop until
57
+ the buyer approves it in Link. These URLs can expire. Do not keep generating
58
+ approval links while the buyer is away.
59
+
60
+ After the buyer approves, use the **same** order reference:
61
+
62
+ ```sh
63
+ npx tixbit link complete "$ORDER_REFERENCE"
55
64
  ```
56
65
 
57
- ## Additional commands (in `tixbit@0.1.2`)
58
-
59
- - `tixbit quote <eventId> --size 100`: refresh existing listings; requires live freshness.
60
- - `tixbit auth`: public browser sign-in and wallet setup links; not a CLI login. No command needs a developer API key.
61
- - `tixbit buy <listingId> --quantity 2 --max-price <total-usd> --email <buyer-email>`: quote only, no payment credential required.
62
- - `tixbit link start` prepares one Stripe Link spend request, enforces the total cap, and returns an approval URL without charging. Present that URL immediately. `tixbit link complete` checks approval and pays with the saved order; use the same order reference for recovery. Do not print or extract the Link payment token.
63
- - Add `--confirm` only after approval. Without payment authorization, the result is `authorization_required` with a browser checkout URL, not a payment. Review the final total in the browser; the CLI cap is not transferred there. Optional advanced integrations can inject a user-approved `TIXBIT_LINK_TOKEN`; automatic payment still requires server cap support. Never put tokens in arguments.
64
- - The older `buy` web route supports 4-12 alphanumeric IDs only. The new Link MPP command accepts the listing IDs supported by the MPP server.
65
- - Without a signed-in user integration, seller commands return browser sign-in guidance and do not read or submit listings. Browser-to-CLI seller sessions are not supported. Do not extract browser tokens. Optional authorized integrations may supply `TIXBIT_ACCESS_TOKEN`; seller creation still requires `--confirm`, `termsAccepted: true`, and server ownership/access checks.
66
- - All commands emit JSON, including errors. Preserve full case-sensitive IDs.
67
- - Never resend an uncertain Link payment. Repeat `link complete` with the same order reference to check server recovery without sending a second credential. Read seller listings after uncertain creation.
68
- - No bids or negotiation are available. Do not claim a price reduction.
69
-
70
- ## Required workflow
71
-
72
- 1. Search and select the event.
73
- 2. Fetch listings and the seatmap before presenting ticket options.
74
- 3. Confirm the exact listing, quantity, and buyer email.
75
- 4. Use `checkout` for user-completed browser payment. For Stripe Link machine
76
- payment, run `link start` with an approved cap, show `approvalUrl`, then run
77
- `link complete` after approval. Use `purchase` for Tempo only when the user
78
- explicitly authorizes that payment.
79
- 5. Use the same order reference with `link complete` for recovery. For Tempo,
80
- preserve the original idempotency key across retries and recovery checks.
81
- 6. Treat `pending` and `manual_review_required` as non-final. Follow the returned
82
- `action`; never create another payment or ticket purchase for the same order.
83
-
84
- The purchase result includes the TixBit `orderReference`, status, optional
85
- `receiptUrl`, server-authoritative order total, and recovery action. Do not log
86
- or repeat MPP private keys, payment credentials, or raw provider IDs.
66
+ `link complete` uses the approved Link spend request and returns the order status
67
+ and, when available, a TixBit receipt URL. It does not need a card number or a
68
+ token pasted into a prompt. The CLI saves the order state privately under
69
+ `~/.local/state/tixbit/link` (or `XDG_STATE_HOME`). Keep it until the order is
70
+ settled. Do not print, extract, or copy Link payment credentials.
71
+
72
+ If approval is still pending, wait for the buyer. If the payment result is
73
+ `pending` or `manual_review_required`, do not start another checkout or send a
74
+ second payment. Repeat `link complete` with the same order reference to check
75
+ the existing attempt. TixBit can reconcile a provider purchase that completes
76
+ later. Only report a purchase as complete when the result says `fulfilled`.
77
+ Use the receipt URL and delivery email to check ticket access. If the result
78
+ stays pending, contact TixBit support with the order reference.
79
+
80
+ ## Other checkout paths
81
+
82
+ `tixbit checkout "$LISTING_ID" --quantity 1 --json` returns a browser checkout
83
+ URL. The buyer reviews and pays on the website; the CLI does not pay. A CLI
84
+ spending cap does not carry into that browser checkout.
85
+
86
+ `tixbit buy "$LISTING_ID" --quantity 1 --max-price 25 --email buyer@example.com
87
+ --json` returns a quote by default. Its `--confirm` route needs a payment token
88
+ from an authorized integration and cannot create a Link spend request. Use
89
+ `link start` and `link complete` for a normal Link CLI purchase. The older
90
+ `buy` route accepts 4 to 12 character alphanumeric listing IDs; the `link`
91
+ route uses listing IDs supported by the MPP server.
92
+
93
+ `tixbit purchase` uses the Tempo MPP rail and requires the buyer's funded mppx
94
+ wallet. A `402` response can be inspected without paying. For a real purchase,
95
+ get approval for the exact ticket and total, then keep a fresh UUID v4
96
+ idempotency key for that one order:
97
+
98
+ ```sh
99
+ npx tixbit purchase "$LISTING_ID" --quantity 1 \
100
+ --email buyer@example.com --confirm --max-price 25 \
101
+ --idempotency-key "$ORDER_UUID" --json
102
+ ```
103
+
104
+ The cap covers the ticket charge. Wallet network fees can be separate. Do not
105
+ claim a paid Tempo checkout was tested or completed from an unpaid `402` check.
106
+
107
+ `tixbit auth` gives public browser sign-in and wallet setup links. It does not
108
+ log the CLI in or unlock seller access. Seller commands need an authorized
109
+ user integration and seller permission. Never extract browser session tokens.
110
+ Seller creation also needs explicit approval, accurate seat details,
111
+ `--confirm`, and `termsAccepted: true`.
112
+
113
+ No offer, bid, negotiation, or unattended ticket hunt is available. A maximum
114
+ price is a spending limit, not an offer to the seller.
