# Cortex Command Line Interface

The Cortex Command Line Interface (CLI) is an open‑source, Python‑based command‑line tool for interacting with the [Cortex API](https://docs.cortex.io/api/). It’s published as the `cortexapps-cli` package on PyPI and maintained in the public [`cortexapps/cli` GitHub repository](https://github.com/cortexapps/cli).

You can use it to call Cortex APIs from scripts (for example, managing catalog entities and performing bulk operations).
