About:
The CircleCI CLI allows developers to run CircleCI jobs in a Docker container on their local machine. This enables testing and debugging of build configurations without pushing commits, significantly speeding up the development feedback loop. It is particularly useful for validating '.circleci/config.yml' files and inspecting command outputs in an environment that mirrors the CI pipeline.
Key Features:
  • Run jobs locally using Docker
  • Validate and debug config.yml files
  • Query and view pipeline status
  • Orb development and testing support
Use Cases:
  • Debugging failing CI builds without waiting for remote execution
  • Validating configuration changes before pushing to version control
  • Developing and testing custom Orbs locally
Alternatives:
  • act – Acts as a local runner for GitHub Actions, whereas CircleCI CLI is specific to the CircleCI ecosystem.
