The nitro login command logs you in interactively through your default browser. After authenticating, the CLI prompts you to select a default workspace (skipped when you only have one) and persists the session locally so subsequent commands don't need --api-key.

For non-interactive environments such as CI/CD, skip nitro login entirely and authenticate per-invocation with --api-key instead (see Global Options).
