+<HeadTitle title="Commands And Arguments | OpenBB CLI Docs" />
+
+Commands are displayed on-screen in a lighter colour, compared with menu items, and they will not be prefaced with, `>`.
+
+Functions have a variety of parameters that differ by endpoint and provider. The --help dialogue will provide guidance on nuances of any particular command.
+
+The available data sources for each command are displayed on the right side of the screen, and are selected with the `--provider` argument.
+
+## Help arguments
+
+The `help` command shows the current menu. The screen will display all the commands and menus that exist, including a short description for each of these.
+
+Adding `--help`, or `-h`, to any command will display the description and parameters for that particular function.
+
+## Entering Parameters
+
+Parameters are all defined through the same pattern, --argument, followed by a space, and then the value.
+
+If the parameter is a boolean (true/false), there is no value to enter. Adding the --argument flags the parameter to be the opposite of its default state.
+
+Use the auto-complete to prompt choices and reduce the amount of keystrokes required to run a complex function.
+
+## Auto-complete
+
+The OpenBB CLI is equipped with an auto completion engine that presents choices based on the current menu and command. Whenever you start typing, suggestion prompts will appear for existing commands and menus. When the command contains arguments, pressing the `space bar` after typing the command will present the list of available arguments.
+
+This functionality dramatically reduces the number of key strokes required to perform tasks and, in many cases, eliminates the need to consult the help dialogue for reminders. Choices - where they are bound by a defined list - are scrollable with the up and down arrow keys.
+
+## Global commands
+
+These are commands that can be used throughout the CLI and will work regardless of the menu where they belong.
+
+### Help
+
+`--help`, or `-h` can be attached to any command, as described above.
+
+### CLS
+
+The `cls` command clears the entire CLI screen.
+
+### Quit
+
+The `quit` command (can also use `q` or `..`) allows to leave the current menu to go one menu above. If the user is on the root, that will mean leaving the CLI.
+
+### Exit
+
+The `exit` command allows the user to exit the CLI.
+
+### Reset
+
+The `reset` command will reset the CLI to its default state. This is specially useful for development so you can refresh the CLI without having to close and open it again.
+
+### Results
+
+The `results` command will display the stack of `OBBjects` that have been generated during the session, which can be later injected on the data processing commands.

+<HeadTitle title="Hub Synchronization | OpenBB Platform CLI Docs" />
+
+This page outlines the `/account` menu within the OpenBB CLI and integrations with the OpenBB Hub.
+
+## Registration
+
+To get started, you'll need to create an account on the OpenBB Hub by visiting [https://my.openbb.co](https://my.openbb.co)
+
+By registering with the OpenBB Hub, you can easily access our products on multiple devices and maintain consistent settings for an improved user experience.
+
+## Login
+
+Once you're successfully registered on the OpenBB Hub, you can log in to access all the benefits it has to offer.
+
+:::tip
+OpenBB recommends logging in via the Personal Access Token (PAT) method. This revokable token allows users to login without transmitting any personally identifiable information, like an email address, which makes it an ideal solution for shared machines and public network connections.
+:::
+
+To login, enter the `/account` menu and then use the `login` command with your choice of login method.
+
+### PAT
+
+```console
+/account
+login --pat REPLACE_WITH_PAT
+```
+
+### Email & Password
+
+```console
+/account
+login --email [email protected] --password totallysecurepassword
+```
+
+## API Keys
+
+The OpenBB Platform acts as a mediator between users and data providers.
+
+With an OpenBB Hub account, you can manage your API keys on [this page](https://my.openbb.co/app/platform/credentials).
+
+Upon logging in, the CLI will automatically retrieve the API keys associated with your account.
+
+If you have not saved them on the OpenBB Hub, they will be loaded from your local environment by default.
+
+:::danger
+If an API key is saved on the OpenBB Hub, it will take precedence over the local environment key.
+:::
+
+The CLI will need to be restarted, or refreshed, when changes are made on the Hub.
+
+## Theme Styles
+
+Theme styles correspond to the ability to change the terminal "skin" (i.e. coloring of the `menu`, `commands`, `data source`, `parameters`, `information` and `help`), as well as the chart and table styles.
+
+In the OpenBB Hub, you can select the text colours for the CLI. After customizing:
+- Download the theme to your styles directory (`/home/your-user/OpenBBUserData/styles/user`).
+- Apply it by selecting the style from the `/settings` menu.
+
+```console
+/settings
+console_style -s openbb_config
+```
+
+Replace `openbb_config` with the name of the downloaded (JSON) file.
+
+## Script Routines
+
+The OpenBB Hub allows users to create, edit, manage, and share their script routines that can be run in the OpenBB Platform CLI.
+
+The "Download" button will save the file locally. Add it to `/home/your-user/OpenBBUserData/routines`, for the script to populate as a choice for the `exe` command on next launch.
+
+## Refresh
+
+The `refresh` command will update any changes without the need to logout and login.
+
+```console
+/account
+refresh
+```
+
+## Logout
+
+Logging out will restore any local credentials and preferences defined in the `user_settings.json` file.
+
+```console
+/account
+logout
+```
