# Monime CLI (/docs/developer-resources/cli)

The Monime CLI, `monime`, lets you work with Monime from your terminal. Log in once with your browser, choose the Space you work in, and use the same command in scripts and CI with an access token.

```bash title="Terminal"
monime login
monime status
```

```text title="Output"
Opening cli.monime.io in your browser to log in.

## How the CLI sees Monime

The CLI uses the same two ideas as the rest of Monime:

- A **Monimeer** is you, an individual Monime user. You log in to the CLI as a Monimeer, and you can stay logged in as several Monimeers at once.
- A **Space** is an organization that owns resources. A Monimeer can belong to several Spaces, and commands act within the one you choose.

Read [Core concepts](/docs/get-started/core-concepts) for how Monimeers, Spaces and access tokens fit together.

> **Tip:** Run `monime --help`, or `monime <command> --help`, to see the help for any command in your terminal.
