It's easy to forget long since setting up this or that client, but generally speaking, here's something you probably experienced when you were setting up any client other than your instance's built-in Mastodon frontend. 1. You told your preferred frontend, "I'm on domain such-and-such!" 2. It sent you to a special page on your home instance, which asks, "Using an alternative frontend is a big commitment. Do you really want to grant it all these permissions?" 3. You said "I do!" 4. Your instance said "Well if you're sure, alright then!" and sent you back to your new frontend client, possibly by a redirect, or maybe by showing you a token that you needed to copy and paste into your client. CLI frontends like `madonctl` work like the latter. Well, notice in step 2 that Mastodon phrases the ask like: "Are you sure you want to trust ${appName}?" Hmm.
