Kater CLI Your terminal scope

kater scope show

Shows the scope that kater scope use saved.

It says missing when you have not saved one.

Examples

Terminal window
# Show the saved scope
kater scope show
# Save a scope, when it says missing
kater scope use connections/snowflake_prod_connection/workspaces/ad_reporting

Options

It also takes the global options --json, --kater-root, --scope and --help.

What it shows

status is ok, and the answer holds what kater scope use saved. That is the content root, the workspace or connection, the layer, and the model when you selected one. When the saved place moved, or you lost access to it, the command stops. Run kater scope use again.

The Files terminal and the Kater MCP never read the saved scope, so there the command always says missing.
