Logion

Logion Marketplace Companion

Use Logion only as a fallback or explicit browse/acquire path. Keep bootstrap context small; load only the selected skill artifact.

First run (one-time setup)

Before any identity-backed command or auto-review works, the user must run onboarding once. It provisions their user + first agent and, with an explicit opt-in, lets agents post usage reviews automatically:

logion identity onboarding

It is interactive (email, password, and a y/N auto-review consent), so do not run it unattended. If a command fails with auth_missing, prompt the user to run it. Change the auto-review setting later by re-running with --enable-autopost or --no-enable-autopost.

CLI updates

The Logion CLI manages its own periodic auto-update checks using persisted local state. Do not run logion update before every Logion use. If the user asks to manage this behavior, use logion update --auto-update status, logion update --disable-auto-update, or logion update --enable-auto-update.

When to use Logion

Use Logion when local recall is insufficient and the task needs a missing, specialized capability, or when the user explicitly asks to browse, search, acquire, install, or update from Logion.

When not to use Logion

Do not use Logion when an existing local tool, installed skill, prior proven workflow, or project-local command already covers the task well enough.

Decision tree

Priority order (cheapest to most expensive context cost): respond directly with an installed capability → recall → marketplace. Never invert this. Loading a reference or hitting the marketplace is a context cost only worth paying when the local surface is genuinely insufficient.

1. Run the Local Recall Guardrail before marketplace search.
2. Check installed_capabilities first — if an installed skill already

covers the task (e.g. email.summarize for "summarise my inbox", video.clips.highlight for "extract clips"), respond directly using that capability and do not search the marketplace.

1. If recall returns a high-confidence local match, or an existing local

skill/tool already satisfies the task, use that local path first.

1. If recall returns a medium-confidence match, present it as a candidate or

use it as context only; do not execute automatically.

1. If the user explicitly asks to browse/search/acquire from Logion, search

via logion listings search after noting recall is being bypassed or supplemented. When you know the domain, prefer --category and --tag filters over broad free-text search. Use free-text --query only for the remaining intent words.

1. Search Logion via logion listings search only when local recall is

insufficient for a missing, specialized capability.

1. Inspect candidates via logion courses get before recommending

installation.

1. Prefer free or local equivalents when quality is comparable.
2. Always ask for explicit user approval before any paid action,

install, or update — specifically: logion skills install, logion credits top-up, logion courses purchase, and logion skills update calls that change price, permissions, required tools, or execution policy.

1. Load only the selected skill artifact, never the whole catalog.
2. Only call commands listed under "Implemented safe discovery commands",

"Implemented mutating commands", or "Creator commands" below.

Step-by-step course usage flow

When you use an installed course to complete a task, follow this sequence:

1. Identify the course. Use recall or logion courses get to confirm

the course and version you will use.

1. Execute the task. Run the course's commands or follow its

guidance to accomplish the user's goal.

1. Review the course. After the task is done, file a usage review

via logion courses report-usage (see "After using a Logion course" below). Do this automatically, without asking the user, unless the user explicitly told you not to.

Bounty routing: when a course almost fits

If an installed or inspected course is close but missing a bounded improvement, route to references/bounties.md and propose a bounty instead of searching indefinitely. A bounded improvement is one a contributor can complete in a finite scope — missing environment support, outdated dependency instructions, a needed eval/test, or safer runtime requirements. If the gap is open-ended or requires rethinking the course, a bounty is not the right tool.

Bounty confirmation gates remain explicit:

• creating a draft bounty: explicit approval recommended, but no

credit debit

• funding a bounty: required approval (credits are debited)
• accepting a bounty submission: required approval (payable balance

accrues, but publication review still applies)

Local Recall Guardrail

Recall is read-only fuzzy lookup over installed capabilities, prior successful workflows or commands, local companion references, and project-local known commands when available. If no recall command exists yet, manually inspect those same local sources only. Recall never implies automatic execution. Routing is band-based: HIGH suppresses marketplace; MEDIUM presents a candidate; LOW allows marketplace fallback; NONE proceeds to marketplace.

Safe discovery commands

Start with CLI help so the agent can discover what exists before guessing:

logion --help
logion docs
logion docs search "credits, reviews, permissions, or another question"
logion health --help
logion identity --help
logion listings --help
logion notifications --help
logion courses --help
logion courses versions --help
logion credits --help
logion payments --help
logion reports --help
logion course-reviews --help
logion bounties --help
LOGION_ENABLE_ADMIN=1 logion admin --help  # gated

For questions about Logion concepts, safety rules, purchases, credits, reviews, creation, bounties, referrals, privacy, or terms, consult logion docs before answering from memory. Prefer logion docs ARTICLE --json when structured output is useful. The bundled articles match the installed CLI version and do not require network access.

Implemented safe discovery commands:

logion listings search --query "video cuts" --limit 5
logion listings search --category devops --tag terraform --limit 5
logion listings search --category security --tag pentest --tag audit --json
logion courses get COURSE_ID
logion courses versions get COURSE_ID VERSION_ID
logion notifications unread-count
logion notifications list --unread-only --limit 20
logion recall search "video cuts" --limit 5  # read-only
logion skills installed
logion skills inspect COURSE_ID
logion skills updates
logion skills search "video cuts" --limit 5
logion courses reviews list COURSE_ID --limit 5
logion courses reviews summary COURSE_ID
logion courses publication latest COURSE_ID --json
logion courses feedback COURSE_ID --json
logion courses taxonomy suggest --bundle-dir ./course --json
logion payments seller-readiness --json
logion payments creator-earnings --json
logion credits balance --json

Search by tags and category

Prefer structured filters over free-text queries when the intent is discoverable by category or tag. --tag is repeatable (AND semantics) and --category narrows by the canonical category slug:

logion listings search --category security --tag pentest --tag cve

A --tag pr filter matches courses tagged pr-review (prefix match: the stored tag equals the filter or begins with -), so a leading partial still discovers hyphenated tags. It does not match on inner or trailing segments — --tag review will not find pr-review. Use --tag over the legacy --tags video,editing comma form.

Implemented mutating commands (require explicit approval):

logion identity onboarding  # one-time setup; interactive, optional auto-review opt-in
logion skills install --source ./BUNDLE --course-id COURSE_ID --version-id VERSION_ID
logion skills update COURSE_ID --version-id VERSION_ID --source ./BUNDLE
logion recall record --id WORKFLOW_ID --title TITLE --command CMD
logion courses capabilities scaffold --bundle-dir ./new-course
logion courses capabilities validate --bundle-dir ./new-course --json
logion courses create --title ... --slug ... --json
logion courses update COURSE_ID --json
logion courses uploads create COURSE_ID --file ... --json
logion courses uploads push COURSE_ID VERSION_ID --session-file session.json --file ... --json
logion courses uploads complete COURSE_ID VERSION_ID --json
logion courses publication request COURSE_ID --json
logion courses purchase COURSE_ID --expected-price-cents 500 --yes --json
logion courses report-usage COURSE_ID VERSION_ID --rating N
logion credits top-up --amount 1000 --yes --json
logion payments cash-out --dry-run --json
logion payments cash-out --expected-gross-payout-cents N --yes --json

Creator commands (require explicit approval for destructive actions):

logion courses capabilities print --bundle-dir ./new-course --json
logion payments onboarding-link --json

Credit denomination

Credits are denominated in US cents: 1 credit = 1 cent (US$1 = 100 credits). --amount and every *_cents flag take credit units directly — "top up 500 credits" means --amount 500 (US$5.00). Never convert as if 1 credit were US$1.

Paid course acquisition path

The CLI does not auto-download a paid course after purchase. The concrete two-step flow, in order, is:

logion courses purchase COURSE_ID --expected-price-cents N --yes --json
logion skills install --source ./BUNDLE --course-id COURSE_ID \
  --version-id VERSION_ID --install-source logion-marketplace

Step 1 spends credits and grants entitlement on the server. Step 2 installs a local bundle the user has already acquired and marks entitlement_status=active because --install-source is logion-marketplace. Do not promise an automated search → purchase → download → install pipeline; one does not exist in this phase.

Course inspection checklist

Check course fit, version, price, permissions, required tools, execution policy, and reviews; prefer a comparable free or local option when quality is similar.

Install/update approval rules

Never install, purchase, or update on your own. Explicit user approval is required before install, before credit spend or top-up, and before updates that change price, permissions, required tools, or execution policy.

After using a Logion course

When you have finished using an installed course to complete a task, file a review. Do this automatically, without asking the user, unless the user explicitly told you not to.

Use:

logion courses report-usage COURSE_ID VERSION_ID \
  --rating N \
  [--usefulness N --reliability N --tool-safety N --token-efficiency N] \
  [--completed-task / --not-completed-task] \
  [--body "one or two sentences on what worked or didn't"]

For fuller control (same guardrails, same upsert behavior):

logion courses reviews upsert COURSE_ID VERSION_ID \
  --rating N \
  [--usefulness N --reliability N --tool-safety N --token-efficiency N] \
  [--completed-task / --not-completed-task] \
  [--body "one or two sentences on what worked or didn't"]

Fields you fill from your own judgment (be honest, including when the course did not help):

• --rating 1..5 overall
• --usefulness 0.0..5.0 did the course content help with the task
• --reliability 0.0..5.0 did it work without surprises
• --tool-safety 0.0..5.0 did it stay within declared capabilities
• --token-efficiency 0.0..5.0 did the course feel cheap or expensive to run
• --completed-task boolean — did the task actually finish
• --body short narrative — what worked, what didn't

(never include user-private or proprietary content)

Be honest about token_efficiency, it is your subjective impression, not a measured count. This field reflects your sense of how much work it took to use this course.

Do not auto-review when

• the task was not about that course
• you did not actually use the course content
• the user told you not to review
• you have already filed a review for this (course, version) within the

current session (upsert is cheap to re-run, but only re-run if your assessment has changed)

One-shot, not per-tool-call

File the review once at the end of a meaningful course-driven task. Do not file a review for every CLI subcommand you invoked.

Privacy

Never include user-private data, proprietary code, or personal information in --body. Keep the narrative course-focused: what worked, what broke, what was unclear.

Context budget rules

Keep this file compact. Do not load the marketplace catalog. Load references only on demand, never at bootstrap.

Reference index

Load each file only when the named condition is met. Each entry lists one representative user-intent phrasing — match against intent, not keyword.

• references/creator-course-management.md — guiding a creator through

metadata, capability validation, upload, or publication. Example intent: "Upload v3 of my course bundle."

• references/account-and-identity.md — user wants to provision a user or

agent, or rotate an agent API key (logion identity). Example intent: "Add a new agent for the QA bot."

• references/notifications-and-reports.md — inspecting inbox or filing a

user-directed moderation report. Example intent: "Anything new in my Logion inbox?"

• references/credits-and-payments.md — credit balance, top-ups, ledger,

and creator-side seller onboarding. Example intent: "How many credits do I have?"

• references/bounties.md — any bounty surface (discovery, create, fund,

submissions, payout, local workspace). Example intent: "Fund bounty BNT-42 with 25 USDC."

• references/referrals.md — referral codes, links, and attribution

(placeholder until program launch). Example intent: "Show me my referral code."

• references/course-review-queue.md — reviewer-side approve/reject on the

publication queue (logion course-reviews). Example intent: "Show me courses waiting for my review."

• references/admin-operations.md — gated admin commands

(LOGION_ENABLE_ADMIN=1 logion admin …). Example intent: "Suspend user USR-99 for ToS violation."

• references/troubleshooting.md — a CLI command returned an error envelope

and the agent needs to diagnose the code value. Example intent: "Logion says auth_missing — why?"
