CLI Reference

This page has moved. The canonical CLI documentation is now at CLI & Chain Binary.

The CLI surface is flat verb-first — every command lives at bb <verb>. The previous bb cli <subcmd> infix is deprecated and prints a stderr banner during the migration window; the release after the window removes it. See the overview for the full mapping. Start here:

• Installation — install the chain binary + Node CLI in one shot

• Build Commands — flag-based generators (build vault, build subscription, build bounty, …)

• Analysis Commands — check (validate / review / verify folded), explain, simulate, preview

• Deploy Commands — deploy --burner for the keyless faucet path

• Tool Commands — fine-grained MCP tool / tools registry, persisted session, static resources

• Utility Commands — docs, skills, address, alias, lookup, gen-list-id, doctor

• API Commands — 104+ indexer routes

• Auth Commands — wallet-agnostic SIWBB sessions

• Chain Commands — bitbadgeschaind keys, transactions, queries

• CLI for AI Agents — agent workflows and automation patterns
