Config file

The CLI stores configuration in ~/.machine0/config.env. View and modify settings with machine0 config: 
machine0 config get

Session

Your authentication token is stored in ~/.machine0/auth-token with 0600 permissions. Log in with: 
machine0 login
Log out (revokes the token): 
machine0 logout

​
API token

For automation, set the MACHINE0_API_TOKEN environment variable instead of using machine0 login. This takes precedence over the session file.
