The Sovara CLI is a standalone binary named sovara. It is not installed by the Python SDK or TypeScript runner. Installing the CLI does not require the desktop app. sovara status checks the currently configured app environment: keep the desktop app running for local desktop commands, or configure a remote app server. SDK runs can also start the local execution server when needed.
