This page covers `gavai get`, which fetches a page document from the active workspace and prints it to stdout as pretty-printed JSON. You can pipe the output through `jq`, save it to disk for editing, or diff it against a previously stored snapshot.

## Synopsis

```bash theme={null}
gavai get <id>
```

## Arguments

<DefList>
  <Def term="<id>" type="string" required>
    The page ID. Format: `page_01HXR...` (ULID).
  </Def>
</DefList>

## Flags

<Note>
  Run `gavai get --help` for the authoritative flag list. The CLI is the source of truth.
</Note>

## Behavior

The command calls `GET /v1/workspaces/{slug}/pages/{id}`, where `{slug}` is the `active_workspace` from `~/.config/gavai/credentials.json` and `{id}` is the positional argument you passed. The full page document — version string, metadata, and block tree — is written to stdout as pretty-printed JSON. Redirect or pipe it.

## Examples

Save a page document to disk:

```bash theme={null}
gavai get page_01HXR8K2M4 > page.json
```

Inspect a specific block tree path with `jq`:

```bash theme={null}
gavai get page_01HXR8K2M4 | jq '.tree.children[0].props'
```

Diff against a previously saved version:

```bash theme={null}
gavai get page_01HXR8K2M4 > current.json
diff current.json page.json
```

## Exit codes

<ErrorTable
  errors={[
{ code: "0", cause: "Document printed.", fix: "—" },
{ code: "2", cause: "Missing `<id>` or malformed ID.", fix: "Pass a `page_01H...`-shaped ULID." },
{ code: "3", cause: "Not authenticated.", fix: "Run `gavai login`." },
{ code: "4", cause: "Insufficient scope for this page.", fix: "Mint a token with `pages:read`." },
{ code: "5", cause: "Page not found in the active workspace.", fix: "Confirm the ID and the workspace with `gavai whoami`." },
{ code: "7", cause: "Network or API server error.", fix: "Retry with backoff." },
