Cloud CLI
Noun · Development
Definitions
A command-line interface provided by a cloud platform to manage resources, inspect state, and automate operational tasks. Cloud CLIs are heavily used in development, scripting, and incident work because they expose infrastructure capabilities without requiring direct use of raw HTTP APIs.
In plain English: A command-line tool for working with cloud services and resources.
Example: "The runbook used the cloud CLI to fetch deployment logs, rotate a service account key, and restart the managed worker pool."
