Elnora Folders

Manage the folder tree within Elnora projects.

Tool Access

Elnora is available via two methods. Use whichever is configured.

Option A — CLI via Bash (preferred)

Run commands via your Bash/Shell tool as elnora <group> <action> .... Verify with elnora --version. CLI uses ~5× fewer tokens than MCP.

Option B — MCP tools (when CLI isn't installed)

Look for tools prefixed mcp__elnora__ in your available tools. Call them with structured parameters (camelCase — e.g. projectId, not project-id). See the "MCP Tool Names" table below for the mapping.

If neither is available, tell the user to install one:

• CLI: curl -fsSL https://cli.elnora.ai/install.sh | bash (macOS/Linux) or irm https://cli.elnora.ai/install.ps1 | iex (Windows)
• MCP: claude mcp add elnora --transport http --scope user https://mcp.elnora.ai/mcp then /mcp to authenticate.

Never fabricate tool names. Valid commands are in the Commands section; their MCP equivalents are in the MCP Tool Names table.

Invocation

CLI="elnora"

Commands

List Folders

$CLI --compact folders list <PROJECT_ID>

<PROJECT_ID> is positional (projectId). Returns the folder tree for the project.

Create Folder

$CLI --compact folders create <PROJECT_ID> --name "Experiments"
$CLI --compact folders create <PROJECT_ID> --name "Sub Folder" --parent-id <PARENT_FOLDER_ID>

Flag/Arg	Required	Notes
<PROJECT_ID>	Yes	Positional — project UUID
--name	Yes	Folder name
--parent-id	No	Parent folder UUID for nesting (optional, so it's a flag)

Rename Folder

$CLI --compact folders rename <FOLDER_ID> --name "New Name"

Move Folder

$CLI --compact folders move <FOLDER_ID> <NEW_PARENT_ID>
$CLI --compact folders move <FOLDER_ID> root

Both <FOLDER_ID> and <NEW_PARENT_ID> are positional (folderId and parentId). Use root to move to the project root level.

Delete Folder

$CLI --compact folders delete <FOLDER_ID>
# -> {"deleted":true,"folderId":"<UUID>"}

Destructive — confirm with user before running.

Agent Recipes

Set up folder structure for a new project:

$CLI --compact folders create "$PROJECT" --name "Protocols"
$CLI --compact folders create "$PROJECT" --name "Data"
$CLI --compact folders create "$PROJECT" --name "Reports"

Move a file into a folder:

$CLI --compact folders list <PROJECT_ID>
$CLI --compact files update <FILE_ID> --folder <FOLDER_ID>
