# drain-anilist

```sh
manifold ops drain-anilist [flags]
```

Cloudflare Worker egress is blocked by AniList. Pending `anilist:*` ops in the personal API outbox normally wait for a Paperback device drain. This command is the same protocol on a always-on host (for example oci-agents): pull pending ops, run GraphQL with a local AniList token, report outcomes.

Prefer a host with stable non-CF egress (permanent IPv6). Do not expose a public drain listener — this process only makes outbound HTTPS calls.

## Flags

### `--once`

Run a single drain pass and exit. Default is an infinite loop (for systemd).

Example:

```sh
manifold ops drain-anilist --once
```

### `--interval <seconds>`

Seconds to sleep between passes when looping.

- Default: `30`

Example:

```sh
manifold ops drain-anilist --interval 45
```

### `--limit <n>`

Max pending `anilist:*` ops fetched per pass (1–100).

- Default: `25`

Example:

```sh
manifold ops drain-anilist --once --limit 10
```

### `--anilist-token <token>`

AniList access token override. Prefer `login anilist` (keychain) or `MANIFOLD_ANILIST_TOKEN`.

Example:

```sh
manifold ops drain-anilist --once --anilist-token "$MANIFOLD_ANILIST_TOKEN"
```

### `--api-token <token>`

Personal API token. Falls back to `MANIFOLD_TOKEN` or `login manifold`.

### `--api-origin <url>`

Personal API origin.

- Default: `https://manifold.jfa.dev/api` (or `MANIFOLD_API_ORIGIN`)

## Usage

One-shot triage:

```sh
manifold ops drain-anilist --once
```

Always-on (oci-agents user service):

```sh
manifold ops drain-anilist --interval 30
```

On oci-agents, Home Manager runs `~/.local/bin/manifold ops drain-anilist`
via `manifold-anilist-drain.service` (outbound-only; keychain sessions). Prefer
the compiled binary over `bun index.ts` so `manifold upgrade` keeps the unit current.

Device drain in Paperback remains a backup when this host is down. Ops kinds match the device path: `anilist.status`, `anilist.progress`, `anilist.fields`, `anilist.delete`.
