# CLI overview

The `leapview` CLI runs local services, validates and deploys projects, synchronizes managed data, performs administration, and exposes generated API operations. Choose a task-oriented guide for workflow and the generated command pages for exact syntax.

## Set up access

- [Install and authenticate the CLI](/docs/cli/authentication).
- [Choose targets and environments](/docs/cli/targets).

## Deliver and automate

- [Validate, plan, and deploy](/docs/cli/validate-deploy) a reviewed project.
- [Plan, stage, and activate managed data](/docs/guides/data/revisions).
- [Run automation and CI](/docs/cli/automation) with bounded credentials and preserved evidence.

## Diagnose and look up commands

- Use [CLI troubleshooting](/docs/cli/troubleshooting) for local validation, readiness, authentication, planning, and deployment failures.
- Use the generated [CLI command reference](/docs/cli/reference) for every command, positional argument, flag, default, and inherited option.
- Use [API conventions](/docs/guides/integrate/api-conventions) when a long-lived integration should call the versioned HTTP contract instead of composing CLI output.
