Operator CLIs

EnforceGate vX ships three command-line utilities. The recommended day-to-day surface is eghost; the others wrap underlying engine and policy operations that eghost invokes on the operator's behalf.

  • eghost

    Host-side operator CLI. Single entry point for the compose lifecycle (up, down, restart, logs, ps), status, policy management, user management, license inspection, support bundling, and version reporting.

    Recommended for every operator action.

  • egctl

    Engine control CLI. Reached either directly inside the engine container or, recommended, through eghost cli. Provides the full show / request verb tree for engine administration: status, neighbours, policy reload, policy rollback, learning-mode sessions, user management, URL diagnostic.

  • egpolicy

    Policy compilation utility. Parses .policy files into the engine's database. Normally invoked automatically by eghost policy and the engine's first-boot sequence; operators reach for it directly only for bind-mount edits, CI lints, or offline rebuilds.
