Common patterns
All products follow similar conventions:
- Local state — configuration and data live on your machine
- JSON output — every command supports
--jsonfor automation - No SaaS — you bring your own cloud credentials where needed
- Open source — source on GitHub
Install Root
Root is a good first tool if you want reproducible CLI installs without learning Nix:
curl -fsSL https://boringinfra.company/root/install.sh | sh
root doctor
root catalog
root plan install ripgrep
root install ripgrep
Install Sandman
Sandman provisions disposable environments on your cloud accounts:
curl -fsSL https://boringinfra.company/sandman/install.sh | sh
sandman init gcp
sandman create demo --ttl 2h
sandman destroy demo
Install Combie
Combie connects your engineering providers and builds evidence-backed relationships:
curl -fsSL https://combie.dev/install | sh
combie init
combie connect github --use-gh
combie sync
