Introduction

This is a community-built CLI and is not an official product of the Umbra team. It is maintained independently as a contribution to the ecosystem.

Umbra CLI is a command-line tool for interacting with the Umbra protocol on Solana. It lets you shield tokens into encrypted balances, transfer them anonymously through the mixer, and manage everything from a single terminal command.

Extend with plugins

The CLI supports plugins — npm packages that add new commands to umbra. Install any compatible plugin and its commands are available immediately:

umbra plugin add jup-earn

Two ways to use Umbra

Encrypted Token Accounts (ETA) Shield tokens from your public wallet into an on-chain encrypted balance. The balance is hidden — only you can decrypt it. Deposit, check your balance, and withdraw back to your public wallet at any time.

umbra eta deposit <mint> <amount>
umbra eta balance <mint>
umbra eta withdraw <mint> <amount>

Stealth UTXOs (Mixer) Create stealth UTXOs in the mixer pool — anonymous token commitments that are unlinkable to their origin. Send UTXOs to other users or create them for yourself, then claim them back into your encrypted or public balance.

umbra utxo create <mint> <amount>
umbra utxo scan
umbra utxo claim

Before you start

Add a user before running any other command:

umbra user add <name> --backend local

This links a signer to the CLI and sets it as the active user. Then run umbra register once to create your on-chain Umbra account. All network settings (rpcUrl, network, indexerApiEndpoint, etc.) can be configured with umbra config set. Run umbra config get to see current values.
