Reference

CLI

A terminal client for the same Flow sites the builder and the MCP server work on.

Install and sign in

terminal
npm install -g htflow-cli
htflow login

htflow login takes an API token — create one under Settings → API Tokens, described in API tokens.

The rulebook is served, never bundled

The CLI does not carry its own copy of the Webflow rules. It fetches them from HTFlow, so a local install cannot drift from what the server actually enforces.

When the CLI is the right tool

  • Scripted or repeated work — generating the same section shape across several sites.
  • Pipelines, where an interactive client is not available.
  • Working against a site from a machine that already has the project checked out.

For conversational building, an MCP client is usually the better fit — it can hold the design conversation the CLI cannot.

Finding the commands

terminal
htflow --help
htflow <command> --help

The CLI's own help is authoritative for the command list; it ships with the version you installed.
