RookOne
Reference

CLI reference

Every command the rookone command-line interface accepts, generated from the program itself.

The user-facing rookone command surface, read directly out of the program. The hidden deployment-recovery group is documented under Advanced but stays out of everyday root help.

Required means the parser always expects the parameter. Conditional means the condition is stated in Meaning (for example, an alternative flag or ROOKONE_AGENT). Optional parameters may be omitted; Default is the value the command then receives.
