Intercom uses a long-lived API key. Authsome stores the key encrypted in the local vault, injects it at request time through the proxy, and keeps it out of shell history, process listings, and environment dumps.

Get a key

Create an API key in the Intercom dashboard at https://app.intercom.com/a/developer-hub. Intercom access tokens live under your workspace’s developer hub. Replace _ placeholders in the URL with your real workspace.

Log in

uvx authsome login intercom
A local browser form opens at http://127.0.0.1:7998. Paste the key into the masked input and submit. On a headless machine without a graphical session, authsome falls back to masked terminal input via getpass. The browser bridge is skipped automatically when no display is available. Verify:
uvx authsome get intercom --field status
# → connected

Use the key

Run the agent under the proxy. The library tab is for embedding authsome inside a larger Python orchestrator.
uvx authsome run -- python my_agent.py
Under the proxy, authsome sets INTERCOM_API_KEY=authsome-proxy-managed in the child’s environment and injects the real key into outbound requests to api.intercom.io. The child process never sees the actual value.

Multiple keys

Pass --connection <name> on login and on every read command to keep two or more accounts on the same provider side by side. See Multiple connections per provider for the full pattern.
uvx authsome login intercom --connection personal
uvx authsome login intercom --connection team

Rotate or remove the key

uvx authsome login intercom --force          # rotate
uvx authsome logout intercom                  # remove local credential
uvx authsome remove intercom                  # remove all local state for the provider
API-key providers have no revocation endpoint, so revoke and remove are equivalent for Intercom.

Override the bundled definition

uvx authsome inspect intercom > ~/.authsome/providers/intercom.json
# edit fields
uvx authsome list   # source now shows "custom" for intercom
See Provider schema for every field.
