PopKit Cloud Signup

Create a new PopKit Cloud account and obtain an API key for enhanced semantic intelligence features.

When to Use

• User runs /popkit:cloud signup
• User wants to enable cloud enhancements (semantic routing, pattern learning)
• User needs to create an account to access cloud features

Input

User provides (via AskUserQuestion):

• Email address
• Password (minimum 8 characters)

Optional flags:

• --skip-test: Skip connection testing after signup

Process

1. Check for Existing Configuration

from pathlib import Path
import json
import os

config_path = Path.home() / ".claude/popkit/cloud-config.json"

# Check config file
if config_path.exists():
    with open(config_path) as f:
        config = json.load(f)
        email = config.get("email")

    print(f"⚠️  Existing cloud config found for {email}")

    # Use AskUserQuestion to confirm
    # Options:
    #   1. "Continue with new signup" (will overwrite existing)
    #   2. "Login to existing account" (invoke pop-cloud-login skill)
    #   3. "Cancel"

# Check environment variable
if os.environ.get("POPKIT_API_KEY"):
    print("⚠️  POPKIT_API_KEY environment variable is already set")

2. Collect User Credentials

Email Collection:

Use AskUserQuestion tool with custom input for email address.

Password Collection:

Use AskUserQuestion tool with custom input for password (minimum 8 characters).

Validation:

• Email: Must contain @ and valid domain
• Password: Minimum 8 characters, no maximum

3. Create Account via Cloud API

import requests

url = "https://api.thehouseofdeals.com/v1/auth/signup"
payload = {
    "email": email,
    "password": password
}

try:
    response = requests.post(url, json=payload, timeout=10)

    if response.status_code == 201:
        # Success
        data = response.json()
        api_key = data["api_key"]
        user_id = data["user_id"]
        tier = data.get("tier", "free")

        print(f"✅ Account created successfully")
        print(f"User ID: {user_id}")
        print(f"Tier: {tier}")

    elif response.status_code == 409:
        # Email already registered
        print("❌ Signup failed: Email already registered")
        print("\nTry logging in instead: /popkit:cloud login")
        return

    # Other error handling...

except requests.exceptions.Timeout:
    print("❌ Signup failed: Request timed out")
    print("Check your internet connection and try again")
    return

4. Save API Key Locally

from pathlib import Path
import json
import os

config_dir = Path.home() / ".claude/popkit"
config_dir.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)

config_path = config_dir / "cloud-config.json"

config = {
    "api_key": api_key,
    "email": email,
    "user_id": user_id,
    "tier": tier,
    "created_at": "2025-12-26T00:00:00Z"  # Use current timestamp
}

with open(config_path, "w") as f:
    json.dump(config, f, indent=2)

# Set restrictive permissions (Unix/Mac only)
try:
    os.chmod(config_path, 0o600)
    print(f"🔒 API key saved securely: {config_path}")
except Exception:
    # Windows doesn't support chmod the same way
    print(f"✅ API key saved: {config_path}")

5. Test Connection

import requests

try:
    headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {api_key}"}
    response = requests.get(
        "https://api.thehouseofdeals.com/v1/health",
        headers=headers,
        timeout=5
    )

    if response.status_code == 200:
        latency_ms = response.elapsed.total_seconds() * 1000
        print(f"✅ Cloud connection verified ({latency_ms:.0f}ms)")
    else:
        print(f"⚠️  Warning: Could not verify connection (HTTP {response.status_code})")

except Exception as e:
    print(f"⚠️  Warning: Could not test connection: {e}")
    print("Your account was created successfully")

6. Display Setup Instructions

✅ PopKit Cloud Account Created

**Email:** user@example.com
**API Key:** **\*\***def456 (saved securely)
**Tier:** Free (100 requests/day)

## Quick Start

### Option 1: Use config file (recommended)

Your API key is already saved in `~/.claude/popkit/cloud-config.json`.
PopKit will automatically use it for cloud enhancements.

**Verify connection:**

```bash
/popkit:cloud status
```

Option 2: Set environment variable

For maximum portability, export the API key:

# Add to ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc
export POPKIT_API_KEY="pk_live_abc123def456..."

What's Enhanced?

Core Workflows (Always Available)

✅ All development commands and skills work without API key

Cloud Enhancements (Now Active)

✅ Semantic agent routing - Better agent selection via embeddings ✅ Community pattern learning - Learn from other developers' solutions ✅ Cloud knowledge base - Access shared documentation and patterns ✅ Cross-project insights - Recommendations based on similar projects

Usage Limits

Free Tier:

• 100 API requests/day
• Unlimited local execution
• All workflows available

Need more? Upgrade at: /popkit:upgrade

Next Steps

1. Verify connection:

   /popkit:cloud status
   

2. Test semantic routing:

   /popkit:next  # Uses embeddings to recommend next action
   

3. View account info:

   /popkit:account
   

Security Notes

• API key stored with chmod 600 (user read/write only)
• Password never stored locally
