Reepl CLI
The Reepl CLI lets you create, schedule, and manage your LinkedIn, X, and Reddit content straight from your computer's terminal — great for power users, automations, and AI agents.
The Reepl CLI is a version of Reepl you run from your computer's terminal instead of a web browser. ("CLI" just means command-line interface — you type short commands and Reepl does the work.)
With it you can write and schedule posts, reply to comments and DMs, build carousels, check your signals inbox, and manage your writing style — all without opening a tab. It's a great fit if you live in your terminal, want to automate your posting, or you're wiring Reepl into an AI agent or script.
New to the terminal? No problem — the web app and Chrome extension do everything the CLI does, in a friendlier interface. The CLI is an optional power tool, not a required one.
Everything you do in the CLI stays perfectly in sync with the rest of Reepl. Draft a post here and it shows up in the web app; your plan and limits work exactly the same way everywhere.
Install it
You'll need Node.js version 20 or newer on your computer first (download it here if you don't have it). Then install Reepl with one command:
npm install -g @reepl/cliThat's it — you can now use the reepl command anywhere. Double-check it worked:
reepl --version
reepl --helpWant to test it first? Run it on the fly without installing anything:
npx @reepl/cli --helpThis is handy for a quick try or for automated setups. For everyday use, the one-time install above is faster.
Your first post in 3 steps
Sign in
reepl loginThis opens your browser so you can log in with your normal Reepl account. Once you approve, you're connected. (Working on a server with no browser? See Signing in.)
Check you're connected
reepl whoamiThis confirms which account and workspace you're signed into.
Write your first draft
reepl post create -c "My first post from the Reepl CLI."Done! This saves a draft — nothing is posted publicly. You'd need to explicitly add --publish or --schedule to make it go live, so there's no risk of an accidental post. Review it in the web app whenever you're ready.

Which commands need a paid plan?
The CLI works on every plan. A few specific actions match the same plan requirements as the app:
- Reddit search and training your writing style need a Pro plan.
- X direct messages and replying on X need a Premium plan.
If you try one of these without the right plan, Reepl tells you clearly what's needed instead of just failing — so you're never left guessing.
Working with AI agents or scripts?
The CLI was built to be automation-friendly. Every command can return clean, machine-readable results, which makes it easy to plug into your own scripts or hand to an AI assistant. If that's you, head to Using the CLI with agents & AI for the technical details.
