# auth

> Sign in, and bind this machine.

```bash theme={"theme":"nord"}
resumecontext auth
```

Opens your browser to sign in with Google. On success the machine is bound: its
sessions are attributed to it, and your agent can later tell you whether work
happened *here* or somewhere else.

It also starts the background sync service. It has no projects to sync until
you run [`init`](/docs/cli/init) for a new project or [`sync`](/docs/cli/sync) once from
an invited project's local clone.

<Warning>
  Run this on **every machine** you work from. A machine that has not signed in
  cannot sync, and a token without a machine is refused when pushing history.
</Warning>

Already signed in on the website? The CLI still mints its own token bound to
this machine, rather than reusing the browser's.

## logout

```bash theme={"theme":"nord"}
resumecontext logout
```

Clears this machine's stored session so a different account can sign in.

<Warning>
  **Local only.** The token the CLI issued is signed and cannot be revoked, so
  logging out does not invalidate a token that has already leaked. If one gets
  out, treat it as valid until it expires.
</Warning>

It deliberately leaves agent configuration and per-project sync state alone.
Those are not account-specific, and re-collecting them after every account
switch would be busywork.
