I'm installing 1Password-CLI on a new computer and I'm getting this error:
[ERROR] 2025/05/09 15:34:50 connecting to desktop app: write: The pipe is being closed.
Looking at the previous thread here: CLI can not connect to desktop app | 1Password Community
Wow, they broke things across the board.
After getting fed up trying to make it work on Windows, I switched to my Linux system. And it was broke af there, too. :/
This seems to break 1Password and VScode integration...
This quick start guide will get you up and running with the extension.
- Set up the CLI - v2.4.0 or greater of the 1Password CLI needs to be https://developer.1password.com/docs/cli/get-started#install.

Can confirm the same issue here. Downgrading also fixed it for me.
I uninstalled the new version and re-installed 2.30.3 and it seems to be working, so it probably is the same problem as before.
Desktop app logs suggest that it's the exact same problem as before - the updated CLI app isn't signed:
ERROR 2025-05-09T13:16:30.034+00:00 runtime-worker(ThreadId(8)) [1P:op-ipc\src\ipc\windows.rs:376] failed to verify trusted file certificate: WinApi(Error HRESULT(0x800B0100): No signature was present in the subject.)
I also stumbled upon this the first time I set up the CLI, so it helped! Thank you and I'll be sure to check out your site 🙌.
For the benefit of others, I leave the CLI installation commands using winget.
```powershell
winget install --id AgileBits.1Password.CLI --version 2.30.3
```
users may need to uninstall the broken / unsigned version first...
TL:DR
winget uninstall --id AgileBits.1Password.CLI
winget install --id AgileBits.1Password.CLI --version 2.30.3
All the things.
