Usage: tbot [<flags>] <command> [<args> ...]
Teleport Machine & Workload Identity issues and renews short-lived certificates so your machines can
access Teleport protected resources in the same way your engineers do.
Flags:
-d, --[no-]debug Enables verbose logging to stdout. ($TBOT_DEBUG)
-c, --config=CONFIG Path to a configuration file. ($TBOT_CONFIG_PATH)
--[no-]fips Enables FIPS compliance mode. This requires the FIPS binary is in use.
--[no-]insecure Insecure configures the bot to trust the certificates from the Auth Server
or Proxy on first connect without verification. Do not use in production.
--log-format=text Controls the format of output logs. Can be `json` or `text`. Defaults to
`text`.
