Sentinel CLI Commands

The Sentinel command-line interface (CLI) allows for the developing and testing of policies outside of a particular Sentinel implementation. Having a standard workflow to develop policies is critical for our mission of policy as code.

The CLI takes a subcommand to execute. The complete list of subcommands is in the navigation to the left.

The Sentinel CLI is a well-behaved command line application. In erroneous cases, a non-zero exit status will be returned. It also responds to -h and --help as you'd expect. To view a list of the available commands at any time, just run sentinel with no arguments.
