Environment variables
The Seqera CLI reads the following environment variables for authentication and for pointing development builds at a backend.
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
SEQERA_ACCESS_TOKEN | Platform access token for non-interactive use. When set, the CLI skips the browser login flow and uses this token directly. |
SEQERA_AI_BACKEND_URL | Co-Scientist backend endpoint used by the CLI. |
SEQERA_AUTH_DOMAIN | Platform API base URL used for browser-based login. |
SEQERA_AUTH_CLI_CLIENT_ID | OAuth client ID for the Seqera CLI. |
TOWER_ACCESS_TOKEN | Platform personal access token used instead of browser login. |
note
SEQERA_AUTH_DOMAIN and SEQERA_AUTH_CLI_CLIENT_ID are only needed for the OAuth login flow when pointing a development build at the hosted Co-Scientist backend. See Authentication for the full setup.
