There's a specific kind of friction in provisioning infrastructure through a web UI: you're building an automated system, but step one is clicking through a dashboard. For email identities that your code creates, monitors, and tears down, the browser is the wrong tool. The Nylas CLI closes that gap — every part of an Agent Account's lifecycle is a terminal command.
Agent Accounts (currently in beta) are hosted mailboxes with real addresses that your application owns end-to-end. They send, receive, and hold calendar events like any human account, and the quickstart gets you from API key to working mailbox in under 5 minutes. Here's how to do all of it without leaving the shell.
One-time setup
If you've never touched the CLI before:
brew install nylas/nylas-cli/nylas
