Without signing in the CLI uses the unsigned allowance. ccucheck login shows a short code and a link to ccucheck.com/device. Approve it there while signed in, and the CLI saves a new API key on this computer (readable only by you). You can see and revoke it on Account, Developer. To use a key you already have, set CCUCHECK_API_KEY.
