 # trackrev
 
-Your [TrackRev](https://trackrev.io) link analytics, in the terminal — performance per channel,
-per link, the raw click stream, and any single visitor's full journey.
+[TrackRev](https://trackrev.io) in your terminal — create and manage tracking links, pull
+performance per channel and per link, walk the raw click stream, and replay any visitor's
+journey from first click to paid conversion.
 
 Zero dependencies. Node 20 or newer.
 
 ## Install
 
 ```bash
-npx trackrev channels
+npm install -g trackrev
 ```
 
-Or keep it around:
+Or run it once without installing:
 
 ```bash
-npm install -g trackrev
+npx trackrev channels
 ```
 
 ## Authenticate
 
-Create a **secret** key under Settings → Developers, then:
+Create a **secret** key under Settings → Developers, then either save it:
+
+```bash
+trackrev login
+```
+
+It is stored at `~/.config/trackrev/config.json` with mode `0600` and verified against the API
+before it is written, so a typo fails immediately rather than on your next command.
+
+Or set it in the environment, which always wins and is what CI should use:
 
 ```bash
 export TRACKREV_KEY=lk_live_...
 ```
 
-Set `TRACKREV_API_URL` to point at a different API base (self-hosted, staging).
+`TRACKREV_API_URL` points the CLI at a different API base (self-hosted, staging). Use
+`--profile NAME` on `login` to keep several environments side by side.
+
+## Plans
+
+Link and account commands work on **every plan**, including free, and respect the same limits the
+dashboard does (50 links on the free tier). Analytics commands — `channels`, `links perf`,
+`clicks`, `journey` — need a **paid plan**; on a free workspace they exit `3` with an upgrade
+message.
 
 ## Commands
 
-### `channels` — performance per traffic source
+<!-- cli:commands:start -->
+
+_Generated from `apps/cli/src/registry.js` — edit there, then run `pnpm --filter trackrev sync-docs`._
+
+### Analytics
+
+#### `trackrev channels`
+
+performance per traffic source _(paid plan)_
+
+```bash
+trackrev channels --days 7 --ltv
+```
+
+| flag | meaning |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--days N` | last N days (default 30, max 365) |
+| `--from ISO` | explicit start, e.g. 2026-01-01; wins over --days |
+| `--to ISO` | explicit end (defaults to now) |
+| `--ltv` | add all-time lifetime value per channel |
+
+conversions is a decimal on purpose — attribution splits credit, so one sale touched by two channels counts 0.5 on each.
+
+#### `trackrev links perf`
+
+performance per short link (bare `trackrev links` still works) _(paid plan)_
+
+```bash
+trackrev links perf --limit 20
+```
+
+| flag | meaning |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--limit N` | rows to return (max 500) |
+| `--days N` | last N days (default 30, max 365) |
+| `--from ISO` | explicit start, e.g. 2026-01-01; wins over --days |
+| `--to ISO` | explicit end (defaults to now) |
+| `--settings` | attach each link's URL, expiry and password flag |
+
+#### `trackrev clicks`
+
+the raw click stream — newest first, bots excluded _(paid plan)_
+
+```bash
+trackrev clicks --all --json

+
+| flag | meaning |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--limit N` | page size (default 100, max 500) |
+| `--all` | follow the cursor to the end of the stream |
+| `--link ID` | one link only |
+| `--bots` | include bot traffic |
+
+--all stops after 200 pages and says so on stderr, so a runaway cursor can never loop forever.
+
+#### `trackrev visitors journey <visitor-id>`
+
+one visitor's timeline — every click, identify event and order, in order _(paid plan)_
+
+```bash
+trackrev journey <visitor-id>
+```
+
+The visitor caption goes to stderr, so the rows stay pipe-clean.
+

+
+#### `trackrev links list`
+
+the links themselves — newest first, no window
+
+```bash
+trackrev links list --channel youtube
+```

+
+delete one link (its campaign and other channels stay) _(asks to confirm; `--yes` in scripts)_

-counts 0.5 on each.
+#### `trackrev links bulk`
 
-### `links` — performance per short link
+create up to 500 links from a CSV
 
 ```bash
-trackrev links --limit 20

 ```

-Newest first, bots excluded, cursor-paginated.
+the link's QR code as SVG
 
 ```bash
-trackrev clicks                        # most recent 100

-trackrev clicks --bots                 # include bot traffic
+trackrev links qr black-friday --out black-friday.svg
 ```
 
-`--all` stops after 200 pages and says so on stderr, so a runaway cursor can't loop forever.
+| flag | meaning |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--out PATH` | write here instead of stdout |
+| `--size N` | size in px (default 512, max 2048) |

-`trackrev clicks`.
+| flag | meaning |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--revoked` | include revoked keys |
 
-## Window
+#### `trackrev keys create`
 
-`channels` and `links` accept:
+mint a key — the plaintext is shown once, never again
+
+```bash
+trackrev keys create --label 'CI deploy'
+```
 
 | flag | meaning |
 | --- | --- |
+| `--scope SCOPE` | secret (servers, CLI) or public (browser) |
+| `--label TEXT` | what this key is for |
+
+The key goes to stdout and everything else to stderr, so `trackrev keys create > key.txt` captures only the key.

+
+```bash
+trackrev keys revoke <id> --yes

+```
+

+
+#### `trackrev domains remove <domain-or-id>`

+detach a domain; links keep working on the default host _(asks to confirm; `--yes` in scripts)_
+
+```bash

+### Money
+
+#### `trackrev commissions list`
+
+the commission ledger, newest first _(paid plan)_
+
+```bash
+trackrev commissions list --status pending
+```
+
+| flag | meaning |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--limit N` | rows to return (max 500) |
+| `--status NAME` | pending, eligible, paid, refunded, void or fraud |

+
+record an off-platform deal by hand _(paid plan)_
+
+```bash

+
+Earnings is not derived — a manual commission exists because the normal rate did not apply. It counts toward your monthly commission cap.

+
+void a commission entered in error _(paid plan)_ _(asks to confirm; `--yes` in scripts)_
+
+```bash

+```
+
+| flag | meaning |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--status NAME` | pending, processing, paid, failed or canceled |
+| `--limit N` | rows to return (max 500) |
+
+Creating a batch stays in the dashboard: it applies per-group payout floors and platform fees, and a second implementation would eventually pay someone wrong.
+
+#### `trackrev payouts mark-paid <id>`
+
+settle a payout sent off-platform _(paid plan)_ _(asks to confirm; `--yes` in scripts)_
+
+```bash
+trackrev payouts mark-paid <id> --reference PAYPAL-BATCH-123 --yes
+```
+
+| flag | meaning |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--reference TEXT` | the rail's own id (PayPal batch, Wise transfer) |
+
+Does NOT email the affiliate — the dashboard sends that, and a re-run would send it twice.
+
+### Settings
+
+#### `trackrev settings notifications`
+
+every transactional email, and whether it is on
+
+```bash
+trackrev settings notifications
+```
+
+default=yes means no override is stored and the catalogue default applies.
+
+#### `trackrev settings notify <key>`
+
+turn one transactional email on or off
+

 ## Exit codes
 
 | code | meaning |
 | --- | --- |
 | `0` | success |
-| `1` | no API key, auth failure, plan gate, network error, API error |
-| `2` | usage error — unknown flag or command, bad `--limit`, missing visitor id |
+| `1` | no API key, auth failure, network error, not found, API error |
+| `2` | usage error — unknown flag or command, bad value, missing argument, refused confirmation |
+| `3` | plan required — the workspace needs a paid plan for this command |
+
+Exit `3` is separate so CI can tell "you are on the wrong plan" apart from "the call broke".
+
+## Development
+
+```bash
+node --test test/*.test.js   # the full suite, against a mock API — no network, no credentials
+pnpm sync-docs       # regenerate the command tables in this file and the docs site
+```
+
+The test glob is pinned: a bare `node --test` also runs every other file under `test/`,
+and `mock-api.mjs` is a server that never exits.
 
+Commands are declared once in [`src/registry.js`](src/registry.js). The help text, the argument
+parser, the tables above, the `/cli` marketing page and the Settings → Developers panel are all
+derived from it — add a command there and a handler in `src/commands/`, then run `pnpm sync-docs`.
