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.
