Can I use Later as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a Later CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose Later through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected Later tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are Later credentials stored?

Later credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for Later MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Later CLI Setup

Later can be configured headlessly with `kosmokrator integrations:configure later`.

# Install KosmoKrator first if it is not available on PATH.
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenCompanyApp/kosmokrator/main/install.sh | bash

# Configure and verify this integration.
kosmokrator integrations:configure later --set access_token="$LATER_ACCESS_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmokrator integrations:doctor later --json
kosmokrator integrations:status --json

Credentials

Authentication type: Manual OAuth token oauth2_manual_token. Configure credentials once, then use the same stored profile from scripts, coding CLIs, Lua code mode, and the MCP gateway.

Key	Env var	Type	Required	Label
`access_token`	`LATER_ACCESS_TOKEN`	Secret `secret`	yes	Access Token
`url`	`LATER_URL`	URL `url`	no	API Base URL

Call Later Headlessly

Use the generic call form when another coding CLI or script needs a stable universal interface.

kosmo integrations:call later.later_list_profiles '{
  "limit": 1,
  "page": 1
}' --json

Use the provider shortcut form for shorter human-facing commands.

kosmo integrations:later later_list_profiles '{
  "limit": 1,
  "page": 1
}' --json

Agent Discovery Commands

These commands return structured output for coding agents that need to inspect capabilities before choosing a function.

kosmo integrations:docs later --json
kosmo integrations:docs later.later_list_profiles --json
kosmo integrations:schema later.later_list_profiles --json
kosmo integrations:search "Later" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json
