## Quick Start
```bash
honcho init # confirm/set apiKey + environment in ~/.honcho/config.json
honcho init # confirm/set apiKey + Honcho URL in ~/.honcho/config.json
honcho doctor # verify your config + connectivity
honcho # show banner + command list
```
`honcho init` reads `apiKey` and `environment` from the top-level of `~/.honcho/config.json` (the same file other Honcho tools — plugins, host integrations — share). If both are present, it confirms them with you; if either is missing (or you decline), it prompts for the missing value(s) and writes them back. Host-specific entries under `hosts` are left untouched.

Per-command scoping (workspace / peer / session) is handled via `-w` / `-p` / `-s` flags or `HONCHO_*` env vars — not persisted as CLI defaults.

## Configuration
The CLI shares `~/.honcho/config.json` with sibling Honcho tools. It owns two
top-level keys: `apiKey` and either `environment` (`"local"` / `"production"`) or
`baseUrl` (for custom deployments). Everything else at the top level —
`hosts`, `sessions`, `saveMessages`, `sessionStrategy`, etc. — is left
untouched.
top-level keys: `apiKey` and `environmentUrl` (the full Honcho API URL, e.g.
`https://api.honcho.dev` or `http://localhost:8000`). Everything else at the
top level — `hosts`, `sessions`, `saveMessages`, `sessionStrategy`, etc. —
is left untouched.
Example:
```json
{
"apiKey": "hch-v3-...",
"environment": "production",
"environmentUrl": "https://api.honcho.dev",
"hosts": { "claude_code": { "...": "..." } }
}
```
Precedence (highest first):
- **`apiKey`**: read only from `~/.honcho/config.json`. No env-var fallback at
runtime — a missing config file is a hard error. (`honcho init` still
accepts `--api-key` / `HONCHO_API_KEY` as a one-time pre-fill for the
write-to-file prompt.) This keeps a single, inspectable source of truth
for authentication.
- **`base_url`**: CLI flag `--base-url``HONCHO_BASE_URL` → config file
→ default.
- **`apiKey`** and **`base_url`**: read only from `~/.honcho/config.json` at
runtime. No env-var or flag fallback — a missing config file is a hard
error. (`honcho init` still accepts `--api-key` / `HONCHO_API_KEY` and
`--base-url` / `HONCHO_BASE_URL` as one-time pre-fills for the
write-to-file prompts.) This keeps a single, inspectable source of truth
for where you're connecting and with what credentials.
- **`workspace_id` / `peer_id` / `session_id`**: flag (`-w` / `-p` / `-s`)
→ env var (`HONCHO_WORKSPACE_ID` etc.). Not persisted to the config file.
