## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The CLI is one external control-plane surface for scripts and
operators.
> - Board API keys are the headless credential path for
board-authenticated automation.
> - The CLI already exposes board token create/list/revoke commands.
> - The existing token tests covered the generic agent token lifecycle,
but did not directly cover the board token lifecycle.
> - This pull request adds focused tests for board token creation,
listing, revocation, and expiration payload handling.
> - The benefit is safer CLI credential-management work without changing
runtime behavior.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public issue found. This is a test coverage follow-up for CLI board
token lifecycle behavior described in
`doc/plans/2026-05-23-cli-api-parity.md`.
Related context: #4220 tracks/contains board API key product work; this
PR only adds tests for the current CLI command behavior on this branch.
## What Changed
- Added `token board create` coverage for `--ttl-days` expiration
payloads.
- Added `token board create` coverage for `--never-expires` payloads.
- Added `token board list` and `token board revoke` coverage, including
the DELETE route assertion.
## Verification
- `./node_modules/.bin/vitest run cli/src/__tests__/token.test.ts
--config cli/vitest.config.ts` passes: 1 file, 6 tests.
## Risks
Low risk. This is test-only coverage for existing CLI behavior.

## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5 Codex in Codex desktop, with repository inspection, shell
command execution, GitHub CLI usage, and code editing tools.
