About:
The Linode CLI is a command-line interface that provides direct access to the Linode Cloud Platform's API. It allows developers and system administrators to manage infrastructure resources, such as Linodes, volumes, and domains, programmatically. This tool is essential for automating cloud infrastructure tasks and integrating Linode services into CI/CD pipelines.

Key Features:

Full API Coverage: Interact with all available Linode API endpoints.
Authentication Management: Supports multiple profiles and token handling.
Resource Management: Create, view, modify, and delete cloud resources.
Output Formatting: Configurable output (JSON, table, etc.) for scripting.

Use Cases:

Automating the provisioning and destruction of virtual machines for development environments.
Integrating cloud infrastructure management into CI/CD workflows.
Performing bulk operations on multiple resources via shell scripts.

Alternatives:

Linode Cloud Manager – The official web-based GUI; suitable for visual management but less efficient for automation.
Terraform – An Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool; better for declarative state management, whereas the CLI is imperative.
