basemodo open

Open an App's URL in your browser.

Terminal window
basemodo open [OPTIONS]

The App of the current folder, or --app. The browser signs in to the App on the way, with your sign-in on basemodo.com, so you arrive as yourself even at a Public App. With --json (and for an agent) nothing is opened: it prints the App's URL, to hand on. A Private App asks whoever opens it to sign in.

Arguments

  • --app <APP>: The App to open. Default: the one named after the current folder.
  • --no-browser: Print the URL without opening a browser.

Like every command, it also takes the global options --json and --api-url.

Examples

Open the App of this folder:

Terminal window
basemodo open

Print another App's URL for a script:

Terminal window
basemodo open --app lunch-rota --json

Output

With --json, it prints {"app", "url", "opened" (false: nothing is opened with --json)}.

From an agent

The local MCP serves it as the tool open. It only reads, so an agent's client may run it without asking you. Its arguments are the command's, named as JSON keys: app (text), no_browser (flag). It answers what the command prints with --json.
