SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Setting up the 1Password CLI (op) and authenticating it correctly involves OS-specific install steps, desktop app integration, and session handling that often fails when commands run in fresh shells. This Skill guides the full setup and sign-in flow so secret reads, injections, and runs work reliably. ## Core Features & Use Cases - CLI Setup & App Integration: Walks through installing the 1Password CLI and enabling desktop app integration on macOS, Windows, and Linux. - Authenticated Secret Access: Handles single and multi-account sign-in, then reads, injects, or runs commands with secrets via op read, op inject, and op run. - tmux Session Management: Runs all op commands inside a dedicated tmux session to avoid repeated authorization prompts caused by fresh TTYs. - Use Case: A developer needs a database password from a shared vault in a CI-like shell. The Skill verifies op is installed, signs in through the desktop app inside tmux, and runs op run --env-file to inject the secret without writing it to disk. ## Quick Start Use the 1password skill to sign in to my 1Password account and read the database password from my app-prod vault.

Frequently Asked Questions about 1password

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I sign in to the 1Password CLI with multiple accounts?▼

Run `op signin` and select the account, or target one directly with `op signin --account <shorthand|signin-address>`. You can also set the `OP_ACCOUNT` environment variable or pass `--account` to individual commands.

How do I read a secret from 1Password using the op CLI?▼

Use `op read` with a secret reference such as `op read op://app-prod/db/password`. You can also write it to a file with `op read --out-file ./key.pem op://app-prod/server/ssh/key.pem`.

Does the 1Password CLI work on Linux?▼

Yes, the CLI works on macOS, Windows, and Linux. Linux desktop app integration additionally requires PolKit and an authentication agent, and macOS requires Big Sur 11.0.0 or later.

Why does op say my account is not signed in?▼

This happens when the shell runs in a fresh TTY without the prior authorization context. Re-run `op signin` inside a persistent tmux session, authorize in the desktop app, and verify with `op whoami` before reading secrets.

How do I use 1Password secrets in scripts without writing them to disk?▼

Use `op run` with an env file containing `op://` references, or pipe templates through `op inject`. Both resolve secrets at runtime so plaintext values never touch disk, logs, or chat.
