Commands Overview

The CLI exposes all DevOps AI Toolkit server capabilities as commands. Commands are automatically generated from the server's OpenAPI specification.

Discovering Commands

To see all available commands:

dot-ai --help

To see help for a specific command:

dot-ai <command> --help

For details on what each feature does, see the server documentation.

Global Flags

These flags work with all commands:

Flag	Environment Variable	Description
--server-url	DOT_AI_URL	Server URL (default: http://localhost:3456)
--token	DOT_AI_AUTH_TOKEN	Authentication token
--output	DOT_AI_OUTPUT_FORMAT	Output format: yaml or json (default: yaml)
--help	-	Show command help

Usage Patterns

Basic command execution:

dot-ai <command> [arguments] [flags]

With output format:

dot-ai <command> --output json

Remote server:

dot-ai <command> --server-url https://remote:3456 --token mytoken

Piping output:

dot-ai <command> --output json | jq '.result'
