Command-line Interface (CLI)
Overview
The Nimbus Command Line CLI allows you to control and inspect your robot agent directly from a terminal without using the web UI. It mirrors most operations available on the Cogniteam Cloud Platform and exposes additional diagnostic and maintenance tools.
To see the built-in help menu:
nimbus -h
Each top-level manager exposes its own set of subcommands:
nimbus <group> <command> [arguments]
