CLI

Command-line entry points

Denis ships with wrapper commands in release bundles and exposes a small but important CLI surface. The repo README emphasizes version checks, server startup, CLI mode, and token management commands.

Documented commands

denis --version
denis server
denis cli
denis cli --help
denis cli token -l
denis cli token -c

What these commands cover

  • Version validation for installed builds.
  • Direct server startup without manually passing the full Java jar command.
  • CLI entry into Denis tooling.
  • Token listing and token creation helpers referenced by the README examples.

Operational advice

Because Denis relies on local runtime files and wrappers, verify the installation directory and generated configuration files before treating a wrapper command failure as an application failure.

  • Run --help first to validate the wrapper and installation path.
  • Keep the runtime files near the installed binary wrappers unless the project docs explicitly document moving them.
  • Use server and cli as separate operating modes rather than assuming cli automatically starts the network service.
