manta-cli

Manta CLI

This discovery stub loads the version-matched guide from the Manta executable used for this session.

Resolve the CLI for this session

Choose the executable once and reuse it for every later command:

• If the MANTA_CLI_COMMAND environment variable is set, use its value. Manta exports this for managed WSL sessions.
• Otherwise, in a dev checkout whose session exposes MANTA_DEV_REPO_ROOT, use manta-dev.
• Otherwise, on Linux outside a Manta-managed terminal, use manta-ide. Never run bare manta there — outside Manta's terminals it normally resolves to the GNOME Orca screen reader (/usr/bin/orca) and starts speech on the user's machine.
• Otherwise, use manta.

Below, MANTA is a placeholder for the executable you resolved. Substitute it before running anything; do not create a shell variable or run MANTA literally. This works the same way in POSIX shells, PowerShell, and cmd.exe.

If the selected executable cannot run, report its exact error and stop. Do not fall through to another executable, which could silently target a different Manta build.

Load the version-matched guide before running Manta commands

MANTA skills get manta-cli

Prefer --json. Use the selected executable's --help for commands or flags the guide does not cover. If a command reports that Manta is not running, start it with MANTA open --json and retry. If it fails with runtime_access_denied, your sandbox blocked the connection: re-run it with escalated permissions, and do not run MANTA open or restart Manta. If skills get is unknown, explain that updating Manta restores the guide; use --help for read-only discovery and do not guess unsupported commands.
