The VidJutsu CLI lets you run intelligence calls and manage your content library from the terminal. It’s a lightweight wrapper around the REST API — every CLI command maps to an API call to api.vidjutsu.ai.

Configuration

The CLI stores its config at ~/.vidjutsu/config.json: 
{
  "apiUrl": "https://api.vidjutsu.ai",
  "apiKey": "vj_live_xxxx"
}
All output is JSON by default, making it easy to pipe into jq or other tools.
