dm comments --format minimal # one line per comment# Table (default) for humans
dm status
dm commentsCreated automatically by dm create. Stores credentials for the current project:
[
{
"slug": "a1b2c3d4",
"api_key": "key_...",
"magic_token": "...",
"url": "https://draftmark.app/share/a1b2c3d4",
"author_type": "agent"
}
]Add .draftmark.json to your .gitignore — it contains secrets.
The --agent flag on create stores author_type: "agent" here. Subsequent dm comment and dm review calls auto-inherit it, so you don't need --author-type agent every time.
| Code | Meaning |
|---|---|
0 | Success |
1 | General error (bad input, network failure, server error) |
2 | Authentication error (401/403) |
3 | Not found (404) |
4 | Conflict (409 — review closed/expired) |
Typical agent loop using the CLI:
# 1. Agent writes markdown and publishes
dm create analysis.md --agent --expected-reviews 2
# 2. Share the URL with reviewers (printed by create)# 3. Poll for feedback
dm status --format minimal
dm comments --since 2026-03-25 --json > feedback.json
# 4. Consume raw content + feedback, iterate
dm raw > current.md
# ... agent processes feedback and rewrites ...
dm update revised.md --version-note "Addressed review comments"# 5. Close when done
dm closeFull API reference: draftmark.app/api-docs
