docuseal-cli

docuseal-cli is a skill for Claude Code from docusealco/docuseal-agent-skills. It costs 81 tokens per session (1,459 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reference for using the DocuSeal command-line tool, which lets terminal commands and automated scripts manage electronic-signature workflows. It covers the required options and JSON output format.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create and manage document templates, send documents for signing, track submissions, update signers, and generate PDF, DOCX, or HTML documents.
Why use it?
It reduces mistakes when running signing tasks from a shell, script, or CI/CD system, where commands cannot ask for missing information interactively.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

docuseal-cli scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 130 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Agent Protocol

Rules for agents:

  • Supply ALL required flags — the CLI will not prompt for missing parameters.
  • Output is always JSON.
  • Use -d key=value (bracket notation) or -d '{"..": ".."}' (JSON) for body and array parameters.

Authentication

Set environment variables:

  • DOCUSEAL_API_KEY — API key (required). Get yours at https://console.docuseal.com/api
  • DOCUSEAL_SERVERglobal (default), europe, or full URL for self-hosted (e.g. https://docuseal.yourdomain.com)

Available Commands

Command Group What it does
templates list, retrieve, update, archive, create-pdf, create-docx, create-html, clone, merge, update-documents
submissions list, retrieve, update, archive, create, send-emails, create-pdf, create-docx, create-html, documents
submitters list, retrieve, update

Read the matching reference file for detailed flags and examples.

Common Mistakes

# Mistake Fix
1 Forgetting -d template_id=<id> on submissions create --template-id is a flag; submitters and other body params go via -d
2 Passing a plain file path as a URL --file accepts a local path; for remote files use -d "documents[0][file]=https://..."
3 Expecting array params as comma-separated Arrays use bracket notation: -d "template_ids[]=1" -d "template_ids[]=2"
4 Using templates create-pdf without a Pro plan Commands marked (Pro) require a DocuSeal Pro subscription
5 Sending to multiple recipients with submissions create Use submissions send-emails --emails [email protected],[email protected] for bulk; submissions create is per-submitter

Security

The CLI accepts user-provided file paths, remote URLs (documents[0][file]=https://...), and HTML content as template input. This is by design — all content originates from the authenticated user and is sent directly to the DocuSeal API over HTTPS. The CLI does not fetch, render, or execute remote content locally; it passes references to the server for processing. No user input is interpolated into shell commands.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
