Manage screenpipe pipes (scheduled AI automations) and connections (Telegram, Slack, Discord, etc.) via the CLI. Use when the user asks to create, list, enable, disable, run, or debug pipes, or manage service connections from the command line.
Screenpipe CLI
Use bun x screenpipe@latest to run CLI commands. No separate install needed.
IMPORTANT: Always run bun x commands from a clean temp directory to avoid node_modules conflicts:
cd "$(mktemp -d)" && bun x screenpipe@latest <command>
Shell
- All platforms →
bash(on Windows, the bundled git-portable bash is used automatically)
Pipe Management
Pipes are markdown-based AI automations that run on schedule. Each pipe lives at ~/.screenpipe/pipes/<name>/pipe.md.
Commands
bun x screenpipe@latest pipe list # List all pipes (compact table)
bun x screenpipe@latest pipe enable <name> # Enable a pipe
bun x screenpipe@latest pipe disable <name> # Disable a pipe
bun x screenpipe@latest pipe run <name> # Run once immediately (for testing)
bun x screenpipe@latest pipe logs <name> # View execution logs
bun x screenpipe@latest pipe install <url-or-path> # Install from GitHub or local path
bun x screenpipe@latest pipe delete <name> # Delete a pipe
bun x screenpipe@latest pipe models list # View AI model presets
