The warp-cli command provides a command-line interface to control the Cloudflare WARP client on Linux systems. It allows users to connect to and disconnect from the WARP VPN, manage the WARP settings, view connection status, and perform other related functions without relying on the graphical user interface. This tool is particularly useful for automating WARP connections in scripts, managing WARP on headless servers, and troubleshooting connection issues.

The `warp-cli` tool is an essential companion to the GUI, offering granular control for advanced users or system administrators. It provides control over device registration and allows management of settings directly from the terminal. Using `warp-cli` the WARP service can be queried and controlled, allowing the user to see the status of the connection, register the device with a Cloudflare account and manage the connection to the WARP service.

The warp-cli tool relies on the Cloudflare WARP client being properly installed and running in the background. Root privileges may be required for some commands, particularly those that modify system-wide settings. Some parameters and features are only available in certain WARP client versions.

warp-cli status: Shows the current connection status.
warp-cli connect: Connects to WARP VPN.
warp-cli disconnect: Disconnects from the WARP VPN.
sudo warp-cli register <team_name>: Registers with a WARP team.

The warp-cli command was developed alongside the Cloudflare WARP client to provide a command-line interface for managing the VPN connection. It was created to cater to users who prefer command-line tools for automation and system administration. The usage has grown steadily with increased adoption of the WARP VPN across various platforms.
