You need to generate a configuration file on first launch:

bsky_tui config

This will generate a configuration file at:

• Linux/macOS: ~/.config/bsky_tui/config.toml

Edit the generated configuration file and set the following required fields:

email = "[email protected]"  # Your Bluesky account email
password = "your_password"        # Your Bluesky account password
skip_splash = false               # Whether to skip the splash screen (optional)
splash_path = ""                  # Path to a custom splash screen (optional)
