Auth & Account Setup (revx configure)

Install the CLI, generate API keys, and configure write-operation security.

Auto-resolve target. When invoked from another revx-* skill due to an auth error, do not bounce the user back to manual setup. Diagnose the failure against the Error Reference below, run the fix yourself (e.g. chmod 600 ~/.config/revolut-x/private.pem, revx configure generate-keypair, revx configure set --api-key <key>), then return to the calling skill and retry the original command. Only ask the user for inputs that only they can provide: the 64-character API key string, confirmation that they have registered the public key in their Revolut X profile, the keypair passphrase, or approval to overwrite an existing keypair.

Prerequisites

• Node.js >= 20 (check with node -v)
• npm (comes with Node.js)

Install

npm install -g @revolut/revolut-x-cli && npm link @revolut/revolut-x-cli

After install, revx is available as a global command:

revx --version                # Should print the version

---

Getting Started

Step 1: Configure Authentication

revx configure                 # Interactive setup wizard

This will:

1. Generate an Ed25519 keypair (private + public key)
2. Display your public key — copy it
3. Prompt you to register the public key at exchange.revolut.com -> Profile -> API Keys
4. Create a new API key — tick the "Allow usage via Revolut X MCP and CLI" checkbox
5. Prompt for the 64-character API key you receive after registration

Or do it step-by-step:

revx configure generate-keypair          # Creates Ed25519 keypair
# Register public key at exchange.revolut.com -> Profile -> API Keys
# Create API key — tick "Allow usage via Revolut X MCP and CLI"
revx configure set --api-key <64-char-key>

Step 2: Verify Configuration

revx configure get             # Show config status (keys redacted)
revx configure path            # Print config directory path

Config Commands

revx configure                          # Interactive setup wizard
revx configure get                      # Show config status (keys redacted)
revx configure set --api-key <key>      # Set API key
revx configure generate-keypair         # Generate Ed25519 keypair
revx configure path                     # Print config directory path
