Troubleshooting Vibgrate Login and Authentication

Resolve authentication problems with the Vibgrate CLI, from the browser login flow to DSN tokens for CI. Learn how to re-authenticate, clear stale credentials, and authenticate non-interactively.

Vibgrate Docs

Vibgrate Help

This article helps you fix authentication problems with the Vibgrate CLI when signing in or uploading to Vibgrate Cloud. It is for developers connecting the CLI to a workspace and for teams wiring uploads into CI.

Sign in from the browser

The simplest way to authenticate is the browser-based login — no token to copy or paste:

vg login

If the browser does not open, complete the flow in the URL the CLI prints. After login, commands like vg push work without further setup.

Clear a stale credential

If uploads are rejected or you switched workspaces, sign out and back in to refresh the stored credential:

vg logout
vg login

Authenticating in CI

The interactive browser flow does not fit headless CI. Instead, create an HMAC-signed DSN token for dashboard uploads:

vg dsn create

Store the token in your CI provider's secret store and supply it to the upload step. Never commit a DSN token to the repository.

Upload fails after authenticating

If vg push still fails:

  • Confirm network egress to the dashboard host is allowed; uploads require network access even though scans are local.
  • Confirm you are logged into the intended workspace (vg logout then vg login).
  • In CI, confirm the DSN token is present and not expired or truncated by the secret store.

You can also scan and upload in one step once authenticated:

vg scan --push

Top Priority Actions

1. Upgrade EOL runtime in node-turborepo
End-of-life runtimes no longer receive security patches and block ecosystem upgrades.
./.
>=18.0.0 → 24.0.0 (6 majors behind)
Impact: −10 drift points (runtime & EOL)
 
2. Fix security posture: no lockfile found
Without a lockfile, installs are non-deterministic. Run the install command to generate one and commit it.
./
Missing: package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, or yarn.lock
 
3. Upgrade Vite 5.4.21 → 8.2.2 in @repo/admin (+2 more)
3 major versions behind. Major framework drift increases breaking change risk and blocks access to security fixes and performance improvements.

./apps/api
Vitest: 1.6.1 → 4.1.11 (3 majors behind)
./packages/utils
Vitest: 1.6.1 → 4.1.11 (3 majors behind)
Impact: −5–15 drift points
 
4. Reduce dependency rot in @repo/types (100% severely outdated)
1 of 1 dependencies are 2+ majors behind. Run `npm outdated` and prioritise packages with known CVEs or breaking API changes.
