Sign in so captured sessions route to the right paper console account. Prerequisite: paperctl is installed.
Sign in
paperctl login
Opens a browser for WorkOS auth. Sign in with your work email. Confirm who you’re signed in as with:
paperctl whoami
Run paperctl login again any time to switch accounts.
Pick your organization
If you belong to multiple organizations, choose which one paperctl routes through:
paperctl org select
The new selection takes effect the next time paperctl starts. If it’s already running, restart it with paperctl init.
Add a teammate to the active org (requires the admin role):
paperctl org membership add [email protected]
When they run paperctl login, the org is pre-selected and the CLI auto-discovers the default gateway.
Need to create an organization?Optional
If you’re the first person on your team, head to console.papercompute.com to name your org. The console provisions a default gateway and backends so paperctl has something to route through — an Anthropic backend for Claude Code plus the two Codex backends covered in Custom backends.
Invited by someone? Skip this — your org is already set up.
Staying signed in
After login, the daemon keeps a short-lived token warm in ~/.config/paper/ — day-to-day use needs no re-authentication. paperctl status shows auth health; if it reports a problem, paperctl login fixes it.
To sign out and clear the daemon-owned credentials:
paperctl logout
