note: The Linode CLI is generated from the same OpenAPI that backs the API reference — its own README says so and
  names linode/linode-api-openapi as the source — so its command surface tracks the contract rather than being hand-written,
  and every operation's reference page carries the matching `linode-cli ...` invocation. That makes the CLI the
  most faithful second surface this provider ships. Its PyPI release (5.68.0, 2026-05-28) is the oldest of the first-party
  clients relative to the 2026-09-17 contract.
