# CLI Tools
## Operate AeThex from the command line
The AeThex CLI automates local development, environment management, and production deployments. It is built with stability in mind, featuring transactional deploys, shell-friendly output, and native support for Linux, macOS, and Windows.
## Command Catalog
| Command | Description | Usage Notes |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `aethex init [name]` | Scaffold a new project with opinionated defaults | Creates configuration, environments, and starter services |
| `aethex login` | Authenticate the CLI with your AeThex identity | Support for browser-based login and personal access tokens |
| `aethex deploy` | Build and deploy the current project | Runs tests, packages artifacts, and promotes to the target environment |
| `aethex env pull` | Sync environment variables and secrets | Keeps local .env files mirrored with the dashboard |
| `aethex pipeline logs` | Stream deployment logs in real time | Supports filters by environment, branch, or commit SHA |
Run `aethex --help` for the full command tree.
## Local Development
Develop and test locally with hot reloading, mocked services, and seeded sample data.
```bash
aethex dev
```
Features:
- Live reload on file changes
- Mock API responses for testing
- Local database snapshots
- Development SSL certificates
## Environment Management
Pull secrets and configuration from your AeThex dashboard:
```bash
aethex env pull
```
## Production Deployment
Build and deploy to production environments:
```bash
aethex deploy
```
Features:
- Automated testing
- Build artifact caching
- Transactional deployments
- Automatic rollback on failure
## Automation Tips
### GitHub Actions
Use the official AeThex GitHub Action to authenticate, run smoke tests, and deploy on every pull request merge.
### Audit Trails
Every CLI deployment emits audit events. Stream them into your SIEM through the webhooks integration.
### Rollbacks
Instantly revert to the previous stable release and notify collaborators:
```bash
aethex deploy --rollback latest
```
### Preview Environments
Spin up disposable stacks tied to feature branches for stakeholder reviews:
```bash
aethex preview create
```
## Configuration
Configure your project in `aethex.config.ts`:
```typescript
export default {
name: "my-project",
region: "us-central",
runtime: "node18",
environments: {
staging: {
domain: "staging.example.com",
},
production: {
domain: "app.example.com",
},
},
};
```
## Troubleshooting
- Check logs with `aethex pipeline logs`
- Verify authentication with `aethex whoami`
- Test configuration with `aethex validate`
