Can I use Samsara as a CLI?

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

Can I expose Samsara through MCP?

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

Where are Samsara credentials stored?

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

Can I deny write access for Samsara MCP tools?

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

Samsara CLI for Shell Scripts

Call integration functions from shell scripts with stable JSON input and output.

Use shell scripts for small local automations that need one or more integration calls. The Samsara CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Command Shape

# Samsara CLI for Shell Scripts
kosmokrator integrations:configure samsara --set access_token="$SAMSARA_ACCESS_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmo integrations:call samsara.samsara_list_vehicles '{"limit":1,"after":"example_after"}' --json

Discovery Before Execution

Agents and scripts can inspect Samsara docs and schemas before choosing a function.

kosmo integrations:docs samsara --json
kosmo integrations:docs samsara.samsara_list_vehicles --json
kosmo integrations:schema samsara.samsara_list_vehicles --json
kosmo integrations:search "Samsara" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json

Use --json for machine-readable output.

Configure read/write policy before unattended runs; use --force only for trusted automation.
Use the MCP gateway instead when the agent needs dynamic tool discovery inside a conversation.
