make cli

Enter the running CLI container — the day-to-day shortcut.

---

Usage

make cli

What it does

1. Runs a full host pre-flight against the splent_cli_container (host checks + .env validation + container is running + socket mounted; auto-starts the container if it is merely stopped).
2. Drops you into the container as the splent user, loading the full shell environment (/home/splent/.bashrc), with the correct UID/GID and Docker socket group.

You land at the (detached) or (product) prompt, ready to run splent ….

make cli vs make cli-enter

Both enter the container through the same internal step. They differ only in the pre-flight verbosity:

Target	Pre-flight	Used by
make cli	full output	you, day-to-day
make cli-enter	quiet (only problems)	the tail of make setup / setup-rebuild, where a full pre-flight already ran moments earlier

When to use

Any time the container is already built and you just want a shell.
