Command lineGetting started

The organization in use

kcloud acts in one organization at a time. Without any setting it is the organization of your account, so most people never pick one.

1

Step 1: List the organizations

The command lists the organizations you can see. A star next to the slug marks the one kcloud acts in.

$ kcloud orgs list

Output

SLUG    NAME  ID
acme *  Acme  0195a3c4-7e21-7b6d-9f40-3c81a4d2e600
2

Step 2: Pick an organization

The command remembers the organization for this address of the platform. Name the organization by its slug, its name or its id.

$ kcloud orgs use acme

Output

kcloud acts in Acme (acme) on https://cloud.kikimora.dev from now on.

Step 3: Show the organization

Without an argument the command shows the organization in use: its name, slug, color, logo and the switch threshold of its Claude accounts.

$ kcloud orgs show

Output

FIELD             VALUE
name              Acme
slug              acme
color             #7c86ff
logo              -
switch threshold  90%
created           2026-03-14T09:30:00.000Z
id                0195a3c4-7e21-7b6d-9f40-3c81a4d2e600

Step 4: Pick the organization for one command

The option --org works with every command and remembers nothing.

$ kcloud --org acme projects list

Output

SLUG     NAME     MEMBERS  DOCKER   ID
sandbox  Sandbox        1  allowed  0195a3c4-7e21-7b6d-9f40-3c81a4d2e600

The variable KIKIMORA_CLOUD_ORG does the same for every command of the shell, as in KIKIMORA_CLOUD_ORG=acme kcloud agents list. --org wins over the variable, and the variable wins over the choice of kcloud orgs use.

5

Step 5: Go back to your own organization

With --clear kcloud forgets the choice and acts in the organization of your account again.

$ kcloud orgs use --clear

Output

kcloud acts in your own organization on https://cloud.kikimora.dev again.

kcloud orgs use keeps the choice next to the token, so it refuses a token from the variable KIKIMORA_CLOUD_TOKEN. In a CI pipeline use --org or KIKIMORA_CLOUD_ORG.
