cylera-cli 1.2.0

Command-line interface for the Cylera Partner API

Cylera CLI

A command-line interface for the Cylera Partner API, providing read-only access to device inventory, threats, vulnerabilities, and network information.

It can be used stand-alone or integrated into an AI workflow using the bundled Claude Code skill (see below).

Alternatively, if you are looking to incorporate the power of Cylera into your AI workflows, you may also consider the Cylera MCP Server.

This Cylera AI Integration Options document may help you decide which one may make sense depending on your AI workflows.

Demo

Requirements

• uv
• Credentials for accessing Cylera

Installation

Use the uvx command to invoke a tool without installing it.

uvx --from cylera-cli cylera --help

This is quite long-winded and so if you want to shorten it, the following alias is recommended:

alias cylera='uvx --from cylera-cli cylera'

The rest of the document assumes the alias is set.

Configuration

Run the interactive setup to configure your credentials:

cylera init

This will prompt you to:

1. Select your Cylera API endpoint (US, UK, or Demo)
2. Enter your username (email)
3. Enter your password

Credentials are stored in a .env file in the current directory.

Manual Configuration

Alternatively, set environment variables directly:

export CYLERA_BASE_URL="https://partner.us1.cylera.com/"
export CYLERA_USERNAME="[e-mail]"
export CYLERA_PASSWORD="your-password"

Doppler Secrets Management

Instead of storing the secrets in a .env file, you may choose to use a secrets management solution such as Doppler.

To use Doppler, simply add the following prefix to all commands.

doppler run --

For example, to run "cylera devices" accessing secrets from Doppler, you would run the following:

doppler run -- cylera devices

1Password Secrets Management

Alternatively, you can use 1Password CLI for secrets management. Set your environment ID and prefix commands with op run:

export OP_ENVIRONMENT_ID=<your-environment-id>
op run --environment "$OP_ENVIRONMENT_ID" -- cylera devices
