What this skill does

# NocoDB CLI

CLI for NocoDB API.

## Platform Support

- **Linux / macOS**: `scripts/nocodb.sh` (Bash, requires `curl` and `jq`)

## Plan Requirements

**FREE PLANS:** Base, Table, Field, Record, Link, Attachment APIs, Fiter, Sorts APIs

**ENTERPRISE (self-hosted OR cloud-hosted):** Workspace, Workspace Collaboration APIs, Base Collaboration APIs, View, Script, Team, API Token APIs

## Setup

```bash
export NOCODB_TOKEN="your-api-token"
export NOCODB_URL="https://app.nocodb.com"  # optional, this is default
export NOCODB_VERBOSE=1                      # optional, shows resolved IDs
```

Get your API token: NocoDB → Team & Settings → API Tokens → Add New Token.

## Argument Order

Commands follow a hierarchical pattern. Arguments are always in this order:

```
WORKSPACE → BASE → TABLE → VIEW/FIELD → RECORD
```

You can use **names** (human-readable) or **IDs** (faster, from NocoDB).

**ID Prefixes:** `w`=workspace, `p`=base, `m`=table, `c`=column, `vw`=view

Examples:
- Name: `nc record:list MyBase Users`
- ID: `nc record:list pdef5678uvw mghi9012rst`

Set `NOCODB_VERBOSE=1` to see resolved IDs:
```bash
NOCODB_VERBOSE=1 nc field:list MyBase Users
# → base: MyBase → pdef5678uvw
# → table: Users → mghi9012rst
```

## Quick Reference

```bash
# Workspace APIs (Enterprise only)
nc workspace:list                                   # → wabc1234xyz

# Free plan APIs
nc base:list wabc1234xyz                            # → pdef5678uvw
nc table:list pdef5678uvw                           # → mghi9012rst
nc field:list pdef5678uvw mghi9012rst               # → cjkl3456opq
nc record:list pdef5678uvw mghi9012rst
nc record:get pdef5678uvw mghi9012rst 31
nc filter:list pdef5678uvw mghi9012rst vwmno7890abc

# View APIs (Enterprise only: self-hosted or cloud-hosted)
nc view:list pdef5678uvw mghi9012rst                # → vwmno7890abc

# Filter syntax help

## Where Filter Syntax

Run `nc where:help` for full documentation.

### Basic Syntax

```
(field,operator,value)
(field,operator)                    # for null/blank/checked operators
(field,operator,sub_op)             # for date operators
(field,operator,sub_op,value)       # for date with value
```

### Common Operators

| Operator | Description | Example |
|----------|-------------|---------|
| eq | Equal | `(name,eq,John)` |
| neq | Not equal | `(status,neq,archived)` |
| like | Contains (% wildcard) | `(name,like,%john%)` |
| in | In list | `(status,in,active,pending)` |
| gt, lt, gte, lte | Numeric comparison | `(price,gt,100)` |
| blank, notblank | Null or empty | `(notes,blank)` |
| checked, notchecked | Boolean | `(is_active,checked)` |

### Date Operators

```bash
(created_at,eq,today)
(created_at,isWithin,pastWeek)
(created_at,isWithin,pastNumberOfDays,14)
(due_date,lt,today)                          # overdue
(event_date,eq,exactDate,2024-06-15)
```

### Combining Filters

**IMPORTANT:** Use `~and`, `~or`, `~not` (with tilde prefix)

```bash
(name,eq,John)~and(age,gte,18)
(status,eq,active)~or(status,eq,pending)
~not(is_deleted,checked)
(status,in,active,pending)~and(country,eq,USA)
```

### Complex Examples

```bash
# Active users created this month
"(status,eq,active)~and(created_at,isWithin,pastMonth)"

# Overdue high-priority tasks
"(d
