A linux utility for generating 2FA codes for Steam and managing Steam trade, market, and other confirmations.
About steamguard-cli
steamguard-cli is a command line utility for setting up and using the Steam Mobile Authenticator, which provides two-factor authentication (2FA) for Steam accounts. It generates 2FA codes and can respond to trade, market, and other Steam mobile confirmations that would normally be handled in the Steam app. The project is open source and is listed for Linux.
The README describes the 2FA secrets as stored in encrypted form, with an option to keep the encryption passkey in the system keyring. It also provides QR codes for importing 2FA secrets into other applications and for signing in to Steam on a new device. The README states that the utility is effectively in beta and that users run it at their own risk. It asks users to back up their maFiles and write down their revocation code, because if both are lost the maintainers cannot help and the only recourse is Steam support.

steamguard-cli FAQ
Where should I download steamguard-cli binaries?
The README says the only legitimate place to download binaries is the repository's releases page, or a package manager linked in the document.
What should I do to avoid losing access to my Steam 2FA?
The README asks users to back up their maFiles regularly and to write down their revocation code. If both are lost, the maintainers say they cannot help and the only recourse is Steam support.
Can I use the 2FA secret in a password manager?
Yes. The README describes QR code export for importing the secret into other applications, such as KeeWeb. It provides specific formats for Bitwarden and KeePassXC, and says Google Authenticator and Authy should not be used.
