⌨️ CLI Reference

Every binary, every subcommand, every flag. Because --help is never quite enough.

All output in these pages is real. Captured from a live OpenVox lab on RHEL 9.7 running the package set openvox-agent-8.26.2, openvox-server-8.12.1, openvoxdb-8.12.1, openvoxdb-termini-8.12.1, openbolt-5.4.0. Note: puppet --version reports 8.26.1 because of cosmetic bug OpenVoxProject/openvox#415; the binary is genuinely 8.26.2.
