CLI / TUI

The corp CLI provides both a rich terminal user interface (TUI) and headless commands for scripted workflows.

Install

uvx (recommended)

uvx corp

pip

pip install corp-cli

Quick start

corp setup    # Run the setup wizard
corp          # Launch the TUI

Terminal UI

Running corp with no arguments opens the interactive TUI built with Textual.

Panes

The TUI organizes functionality into tabbed panes:

Pane	Description
Entities	View and manage legal entities
Cap Table	Equity ownership breakdown by entity
Documents	Formation docs, contracts, tax filings
Governance	Board meetings, votes, resolutions
Agents	Create and manage autonomous agents
Billing	Invoices, payments, and financial overview
Obligations	Human-required actions with urgency tiers
Contacts	People and organizations
Chat	LLM chat with full corporate context
Settings	API keys, workspace config, LLM provider

Keyboard shortcuts

Key	Action
Ctrl+K	Command palette
Tab	Next pane
Shift+Tab	Previous pane
Ctrl+Q	Quit

Slash commands

In the Chat pane, use slash commands for quick actions:

• /form — Form a new entity
• /hire — Onboard a new hire
• /equity — Issue equity

Headless commands

For CI/CD and scripting, use commands directly. Every operation available in the TUI or via MCP has a corresponding CLI command.
