Platform connections: what exists today
No released vidbyte-cli reads context from GitHub, Slack, or Google Drive. The released CLI (0.3.4) links a GitHub account with vidbyte-cli github link, so the bug finder can clone your repositories, and it can post an agent's result to a Slack incoming webhook; neither reads context.

The connections commands were never released
A connections command group (connections login, list, status, logout, and read) for GitHub, Slack, and Google Drive was designed but never merged. No released or main CLI has it, so each of those commands ends in "No such command".
Until a release says otherwise, give an agent platform context by saving it to a file and passing the file with --files.
Save the context as a file
Copy or download what the agent should read, such as a pull request description, a Slack thread, or a Google Doc, into a
.md,.txt, or.jsonfile.Pass the file to an agent
The Suggestion Agent reads each
--filespath as context; it accepts.txt,.md, and.jsonfiles, and you can repeat the option. This works in the released CLI (0.3.4).Context from a file
bashvidbyte-cli agents suggest run --goal "Ship the billing page this week" --files context.md
Model API keys use a different command
vidbyte-cli provider login <model-provider> is for model API keys such as OpenAI. It verifies a key and stores it for local runtime execution; it does not connect a GitHub, Slack, or Google account.

vidbyte-cli provider login openaistores the OpenAI key that the stages, persistence, and task-board runtimes require.GitHub link —
vidbyte-cli github linklinks a GitHub account for the bug finder. It is included in the released CLI (0.3.4).
