Human-readable in TTY, JSON when piped. Also supports YAML and ASCII table. Use --output to override.
Multi-profile auth
Switch between staging, production, and sandbox environments with named profiles. Credentials stored securely in ~/.intersector/.
Zero local logic
Every command translates to a single MCP tool call via HTTP. No local database, no state. Your data stays on your server.
CI/CD native
Use INTERSECTOR_API_KEY and --no-input for non-interactive pipelines. Exit codes follow Unix conventions.
Transparent telemetry
Optional, anonymous, command-names-only telemetry. Opt in or out at any time with intersector telemetry enable/disable.
