bt status shows the selected organization, project, and profile. Add --verbose to show the project ID, app URL, API URL, authentication method, and source of the organization and project context. Add --all to verify every saved profile and inspect the full authentication and context state.
bt status --all includes the active default context and its source, any active credential override, the status of every saved profile, and the locations used for profile metadata and credential storage. It reports when BRAINTRUST_API_KEY takes precedence over saved profiles, but it does not validate that environment API key.
Use bt status when you need to confirm which profile and context bt will use before running another command. Use bt status --all to diagnose authentication or inspect credential storage.
For profile management, such as listing, renaming, or deleting saved profiles without verifying credentials, use bt profiles.
