    Thank you for reporting this issue! We've confirmed the problem and submitted a fix.
    

    The issue you described has been addressed - the environment variables (CORTEX_AUTH_TOKEN, CORTEX_HOME, CORTEX_CONFIG_DIR, CORTEX_DATA_DIR, CORTEX_CACHE_DIR, and CORTEX_API_URL) are now documented in the help output when you run the application with --help.
    

    The fix is now under review: CortexLM/cortex-cli#41
    

    Once the fix is merged, it will be available in the next release. Thanks for helping us improve!
