Output

On a terminal, results render as tables. Piped, the same command emits JSON on stdout, so paperpile-stage references list | jq just works. Errors are a single JSON line on stderr, and the exit code tells you what went wrong:

Code	Meaning
0	Success
1	Generic failure
2	Usage error
3	Not authenticated
4	Forbidden
5	Not found
6	Rate limited
7	Network problem
130	Interrupted

The command reference below is generated from the CLI itself; paperpile-stage --help shows the same thing offline.
