REST API and CLI

Workflow

How REST API and CLI Operates Under the Hood

Direct daemon interaction without bloated intermediate database abstractions.

01. Configuration

Direct System Templating

Applies standard Linux configurations directly to service directories (/etc/nginx, /etc/php, /etc/systemd).

02. Execution

Isolated Security Boundary

Commands run under strict POSIX jail and user separation without exposing global root credentials.

03. Telemetry

Live Status Verification

Immediately checks systemd exit codes and tests socket availability to confirm zero downtime.
