description: >-
  Ionic's Machina CLI ("machina") lets users manage their Machina profiles and
  invoke Machina SDK functions from the command line, plus utility functions
  such as hashing and base64 encode/decode. Distributed via the IonicDev GitHub
  releases and a Homebrew tap. Note: Ionic Security was acquired by Twilio in
  April 2021; the hosted developer docs (dev.ionic.com) referenced by the tool
  are no longer live, but the CLI source and releases remain published.
help: Run `machina` for help; Machina Developers also included a command-line builder.
