`quay tui`

Launch the interactive terminal UI.

Usage

quay tui [OPTIONS]

Boots the ratatui-based interface. On first run with no profiles, the Onboarding screen runs through profile + remote setup; afterwards every launch starts on Dashboard.

Examples

quay tui                                # default
quay tui --profile work                 # launch under specific profile
quay tui --project ~/code/foo

Flags

Flag	Effect
`--profile`, `--user-config`, `--project`, `--json`	Standard globals. `--json` is ignored by the TUI itself; the global is still parseable.

What you can do

Key	Action
`[1]`	Dashboard
`[2]`	Local skills
`[3]`	Remote skills
`[s]`	Search
`[,]`	Settings
`[p]`	Profile switcher modal
`[g] [c]`	Create / push (chord)
`[q]`	Quit

See the TUI overview for per-screen detail.

When to use this vs …

CLI subcommands — when scripting / piping output / CI. The TUI is for humans.
quay add -i / quay push -i — quick one-shot pickers in CLI. The TUI gives you the same flow plus context (status, history, previews).

Caveats

The TUI requires a real TTY. Piping its output (quay tui | tee) is unsupported.
Bracketed paste is enabled in setup; if your terminal lacks support, pasting still works but multi-line paste may register as separate keystrokes.
xdg-open / open / cmd-start must be on PATH for the "open in browser" affordance to work (e.g. after a PR is created from Create/Push).

`--help`
