history

Project history and usage

MEGAcmd is MEGA's official interactive and scriptable command-line client for accessing accounts and files without the graphical web client.

Project history

MEGA developed MEGAcmd as its official command-line application, built around a background server, an interactive shell, and non-interactive mega-* client commands.

Adoption history

MEGA distributes MEGAcmd for Linux, macOS, Windows, and some NAS environments. The input also records its availability as the Homebrew cask megacmd-app.

How it is used

Use the interactive mega-cmd shell for exploratory account work or the individual mega-* commands in scripts. Common workflows include file transfer, synchronization, scheduled backup, link management, and WebDAV or streaming access.

A login creates a local cache beneath the user's home directory containing account cache data, session state, and saved sync, backup, and WebDAV configuration. The official guide does not give a stable exact pathname, so no config or credentials file location is asserted.

Why package nerds care

MEGAcmd exposes a consumer cloud-storage service through interactive and scriptable commands, making synchronization, backup, transfers, and remote-file automation usable from shells and scheduled jobs.

Timeline

  • Public project era: MEGA maintains MEGAcmd in the meganz GitHub organization and distributes packages for its supported platforms.

Related projects

  • MEGA C++ SDK, which supplies the lower-level MEGA functionality used by MEGAcmd.
  • MEGAsync, which uses the same synchronization mechanism according to the MEGAcmd user guide.

security posture

No protected-tool coverage found yet

No matching local secret-handling manifest was found for megacmd-app. Package metadata is still published here so future coverage has a stable package URL.

Install behavior

  • No Homebrew post-install hook is recorded in formula metadata.
  • No Homebrew bottle metadata was recorded.

Recommended review

Before unattended agent use, check whether the tool reads plaintext credentials, writes remote state, publishes artifacts, or shells out to plugins.
