# Commander CLI

Keeper Commander CLI and SDK overview

## Overview

Keeper Commander is an open-source command-line interface CLI, scripting tool, and SDK interface to Keeper. Most of the Keeper platform including Vault, Admin Console, Secrets Manager, Privileged Access Manager, Automator, and other areas of the platform can be controlled, scripted, and automated through this tool.

The Commander platform is Zero Knowledge, similar to other Keeper's applications. It interfaces with the Keeper backend using the same APIs and cryptographic functions as our client applications. This tools is helpful for customers who are looking for enhanced automation, integration and batch processing.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.keeper.io/enterprise-guide/commander-cli.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
