atproto-cli

This is a minimal shell interface to create, read or delete a text record in the ATProto network - especially for the Bluesky app.

INSTALL

mkdir -pv $dst && cd $dst && curl -L -o $bin $src && chmod +x $bin && ./$bin

And now you can change the configuration file (~/.config/atproto/atprotorc) or take a look at this example file: https://github.com/defautset/atproto-cli/blob/main/atprotorc.example
