Authentication
Security is at the core of Tricox. Every transfer is signed and verified via Personal Access Tokens.
Obtaining a Token
You can manage your tokens in the "Setup" section of your dashboard.
1
Navigate to Dashboard
Open the Setup page in the Tricox web dashboard.
2
Generate Token
Click "Generate New Token", give it a name like "MacBook Pro CLI", and copy the raw token.
Tokens are only shown once. If you lose it, you must revoke and generate a new one.
Linking the CLI
Use the auth command to store your token securely in .tricox/token.
$tricox auth --token="tricox_p1_p2"
Security Note
Tricox uses bcrypt hashing on the server. Your raw token is never stored in our database. Locally, it is saved with restricted file permissions (read-only for the current user) and is automatically ignored by Git.
