CLI Documentation

This document describes how to interact with the project's CLI (Command Line Interface). It includes the types of outputs you can expect from each command. Note that the agents stop command will terminate any process running on port 8000.

1. Entry Point for the CLI

Running the ./run command without any parameters will display the help message, which provides a list of available commands and options. Additionally, you can append --help to any command to view help information specific to that command.

sh
./run

Output:

Usage: cli.py [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Options:
  --help  Show this message and exit.

Commands:
  agent     Commands to create, start and stop agents
  benchmark  Commands to start the benchmark and list tests and categories
  setup      Installs dependencies needed for your system.

If you need assistance with any command, simply add the --help parameter to the end of your command, like so:

sh
./run COMMAND --help

This will display a detailed help message regarding that specific command, including a list of any additional options and arguments it accepts.
