Scilla — An Interactive Solana CLI

Scilla is a fast, developer-friendly interactive command-line interface for Solana. Instead of manually typing long CLI flags, Scilla uses intelligent prompting to help you build and execute commands seamlessly — making the workflow far less tedious.

With Scilla, you can easily inspect on-chain data, query cluster state, send transactions, and perform a wide range of Solana development and debugging tasks — all from a unified interactive shell.
