# Clippy - Microsoft 365 CLI

Source: https://github.com/foeken/clippy

Works through the M365 web UI via browser automation (Playwright), not the Graph API. No Azure AD app registration required - just login with your browser.

## Install

```bash
git clone https://github.com/foeken/clippy.git
cd clippy && bun install
bun run src/cli.ts --help
```

Or link globally: `bun link`

## Authentication

```bash
# Interactive login (opens browser, establishes session)
clippy login --interactive

# Check auth status
clippy whoami
```

### Keepalive (recommended)

Keep a browser session alive to prevent token expiry:

```bash
# Start keepalive (keeps browser open, refreshes every 10min)
clippy keepalive --interval 10
```

For persistent operation, set up as a launchd service (macOS) or systemd (Linux).

**Health monitoring:** Keepalive writes to `~/.config/clippy/keepalive-health.txt` on each successful refresh. Check if this file is stale (>15min) to detect failures.

## Calendar

```bash
# Today's events
clippy calendar

# Specific day
clippy calendar --day tomorrow
clippy calendar --day monday
clippy calendar --day 2024-02-15

# Week view
clippy calendar --week

# With details (description, attendees)
clippy calendar --details
```

### Create Events

```bash
clippy create-event "Title" 09:00 10:00

# Full options
