rig CLI: run projects from the terminal

The rig binary talks to the local MCP hub so you can start/stop projects without leaving the terminal.

Prerequisites

• Rig installed and open, with the MCP hub running (Connections).
• CLI on your PATH from the app package, or invoke via npm bin aliases (rig, legacy workbench names).

Common commands

Run commands from inside a project folder, or pass the folder path. A folder Rig does not know yet is added for you.

rig status                 # list projects
rig up                     # start this project (also: rig start)
rig stop                   # stop it
rig restart                # restart it
rig logs --lines 100       # recent log lines
rig open                   # open its local URL
rig health                 # health check
rig resources              # CPU and memory
rig lane staging           # switch lane: local, staging or production

Exact subcommands follow the hub tools — if a command fails, start the MCP hub and confirm the token/port in Connections.
