CLI

The Developer Studio CLI (gsds) is the command-line companion to the Developer Portal. Use it to scaffold projects, preview widgets against your community, test Connectors, and manage sitewide scripts and stylesheets, all without leaving your terminal.

Distributed as @gainsight-hub/developer-studio-cli on npm. Requires Node.js 18 or later.

Where to start

If you want to...	Go to
Install gsds and preview your first widget end-to-end	Get started
Pair a session with your community	Authenticate
Run a Connector against your tenant from the CLI	Test Connectors
Load one shared copy of a dependency across widgets	Share Dependencies Across Widgets
Register sitewide scripts and stylesheets	Manage scripts and stylesheets

Look up a command, flag, or exit code	Command reference
See which files gsds reads and writes	Project files
Recognize an error message, or work out why a preview silently isn't working	Troubleshooting

What gsds is not

gsds does not publish widgets. Publishing is triggered by pushes to your watched branch — the CLI is a local development tool. See Extensions for the publish flow.
