Proton has [launched](https://proton.me/blog/proton-pass-cli) the beta for their command line interface for Proton Pass, Proton’s password manager software.

Soon you will be able to access your passwords and credentials securely via the terminal, a highly-requested feature.

This launch will bring Proton Pass more in line with other password managers like [Bitwarden](https://bitwarden.com/help/cli/) and [1Password](https://1password.com/downloads/command-line) who also offer a CLI client.

The beta, available only to Visionary users for now, promises to help with automation:

> With Proton Pass CLI, credentials can be injected directly into scripts, deployments, and CI/CD pipelines without exposing secrets in plaintext, shell, logs, or command history. This enables automation while maintaining Proton’s end-to-end encryption model.

This will be a great addition for technical users who are already invested in the Proton ecosystem, users who just prefer CLI tools, or those who can’t use a graphical UI for one reason or another.

As always, I don’t recommend using beta software on your real account, but if you have a Visionary account and you want to help Proton test, you can follow the [instructions](https://protonpass.github.io/pass-cli/) they’ve laid out. I’m sure any help is appreciated by Proton.
