Auth Status

ghqc auth status shows the local ghqc auth store and the authentication sources available for the selected host.

ghqc auth status

What It Shows

The output is split into two sections:

• Auth Store, showing the local store directory and any hosts with stored tokens
• Auth Sources, showing the selected repository host and every auth source checked for that host

The active source is highlighted according to the normal priority order.

Source Priority

When more than one source is available, ghqc prefers them in this order:

1. ghqc auth store
2. GITHUB_TOKEN
3. gh auth token
4. stored GitHub CLI credentials
5. Git credential manager
6. .netrc

Example

=== Auth Store =====================
store directory: /home/user/.local/share/ghqc/auth
stored tokens:
▶ github.com (ghp_abcd...wxyz)

=== Auth Sources ===================
repository host: github.com

available auth sources
▶ ✓ ghqc auth store            (ghp_abcd...wxyz)
  ✓ GITHUB_TOKEN               (ghp_1234...7890)
  ✗ gh auth token
  ✗ gh stored auth
  ✗ git credential manager
  ✗ .netrc

Options

Flag	Description
--host	GitHub host to inspect, such as github.com or ghe.example.com.

Notes

• Host resolution uses --host first, then the current repository remote.
• This is the best first command to run when GitHub-backed features are failing unexpectedly.
