+A user performs a range of operations while working on {product-title} such as the following:
+
+* Managing clusters
+* Building, deploying, and managing applications
+* Managing deployment processes
+* Developing Operators
+* Creating and maintaining Operator catalogs
+
+{product-title} offers a set of command-line interface (CLI) tools that simplify these tasks by enabling users to perform various administration and development operations from the terminal.
+These tools expose simple commands to manage the applications, as well as interact with each component of the system.

+== List of CLI tools
+
+The following set of CLI tools are available in {product-title}:
+
+* xref:../cli_reference/openshift_cli/getting-started-cli.adoc#cli-getting-started[OpenShift CLI (oc)]: This is the most commonly used CLI tool by {product-title} users. It helps both cluster administrators and developers to perform end-to-end operations across {product-title} using the terminal. Unlike the web console, it allows the user to work directly with the project source code using command scripts.
+
+* xref:../cli_reference/kn-cli-tools.adoc#kn-cli-tools[Knative CLI (kn)]: The `kn` CLI tool provides simple and intuitive terminal commands that can be used to interact with OpenShift Serverless components, such as Knative Serving and Eventing.
+
+* xref:../cli_reference/tkn_cli/installing-tkn.adoc#installing-tkn[Pipelines CLI (tkn)]: OpenShift Pipelines is a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) solution in {product-title}, which internally uses Tekton. The `tkn` CLI tool provides simple and intuitive commands to interact with OpenShift Pipelines using the terminal.
+
+* xref:../cli_reference/opm/cli-opm-install.adoc#cli-opm-install[opm CLI]: The `opm` CLI tool helps the Operator developers and cluster administrators to create and maintain the catalogs of Operators from the terminal.
+
+* xref:../cli_reference/osdk/cli-osdk-install.adoc#cli-osdk-install[Operator SDK]: The Operator SDK, a component of the Operator Framework, provides a CLI tool that Operator developers can use to build, test, and deploy an Operator from the terminal. It simplifies the process of building Kubernetes-native applications, which can require deep, application-specific operational knowledge.
