First install it if missing, then run the verify command. Start with read-only or inspection commands. Summarize what you found before changing anything. Ask for confirmation before commands that mutate remote state, spend money, deploy, delete data, merge code, or expose secrets.\n\nSource: OpenCLI\n"},"fit":{"bestFor":"secrets, identity, and pki from the terminal.","useThisIf":"You're on HashiCorp and want the official terminal experience.","skipIf":"You're not comfortable with a tool that can write to production.","whatHappensNext":"Run `vault server -dev` and see what comes back."},"capabilities":{"agentFriendly":true,"supportsJsonOutput":true,"supportsNonInteractive":true,"supportsDryRun":false,"requiresAuth":true,"requiresNetwork":false,"ciFriendly":true,"localFirst":false,"destructivePotential":"high"},"taxonomy":{"useCases":["Secrets","Identity","PKI"],"aliases":["hashicorp vault"],"keywords":["secrets kv pki"],"tags":["official","agent-friendly"]},"links":{"website":"https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault/docs/commands","github":"https://github.com/hashicorp/vault","docs":"https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault/docs/commands","opencli":"https://opencli.co/cli/vault","markdown":"https://opencli.co/cli/vault/agent.md","json":"https://opencli.co/cli/vault.json"},"metrics":{"githubStars":35747,"latestRelease":"2026-06-08T00:25:16Z","license":"NOASSERTION","metricLabel":"Docker pulls","metricValue":241894633,"metricSource":"docker-hub","metricAsOf":"2026-06-08T11:00:32.886Z"}}
