Bitwarden Skill

Interact with Bitwarden vaults using the official bw CLI.

Prerequisites

• bw CLI installed: npm install -g @bitwarden/cli
• BW_SESSION env var set (saved in ~/.zshrc)

Usage

Get a password

bw get password "site_name"

Get username

bw get username "site_name"

Get full item (JSON)

bw get item "site_name" --pretty

Search

bw list items --search "query" | python3 -c "import json,sys; [print(f'{i[\"name\"]} ({i.get(\"login\",{}).get(\"username\",\"\")})')for i in json.load(sys.stdin)]"

Sync vault

bw sync

Always sync before getting details to ensure accuracy.

TOTP code

bw get totp "site_name"

Notes

• Session key is in BW_SESSION env var (persisted in ~/.zshrc)
• If session expires, user must re-login interactively (bw login requires OTP)
• bw unlock can refresh an expired session without full re-login
