Before You Use tm

  • Install the CLI first if tm is not already on your PATH. In this repo checkout, use ./.venv/bin/tm until your shell already exposes tm.
  • Start with tm init if you are not sure what is already configured locally.
  • Use tm auth login to obtain a Control Plane bearer token.
  • Put global options such as --output json before the subcommand.
  • Set TM_CONFIG_HOME when you need an alternate config and auth root for local scripting.
  • Use tm auth status, tm infer doctor, and tm doctor for local readiness checks.
  • Use tm auth whoami for a live Control Plane auth check and tm infer chat for an end-to-end inference check.

​

Additional Notes

Config precedence: flags > env > config.toml ([overrides] before [managed]) > defaults. Global options such as —output must come before the subcommand: tm —output json auth status gateway_api_key in config.toml stores the inference API key used by serverless requests. Set it under [overrides] in config.toml, or pass —api-key on each request. It has no environment-variable equivalent. Control Plane auth uses auth.json under the active state root. Quickstart: tm auth login tm auth status tm infer chat —api-key YOUR_INFERENCE_API_KEY —model YOUR_SERVERLESS_MODEL_NAME
—json ’[{“role”:“user”,“content”:“hi”}]’
