openshift/oc: the OpenShift command line client
Source code of oc, the OpenShift CLI. It is built on top of kubectl, so it can do everything kubectl does, and adds commands for projects, builds, routes, image streams and cluster administration.
Drafted with AI from official documentation. Scripts were run in a test environment and repository links verified. Awaiting a human check. Did it work for you? Last edited Outdated?

On GitHub: The OpenShift Command Line, part of OKD
Open on GitHuboc wraps kubectl, so every kubectl command works and can talk to any conformant Kubernetes cluster. On top of that it adds OpenShift workflows such as new-project, new-app, start-build, expose and the oc adm administrator commands, including must-gather and upgrade.
The repository is useful when you want to build the client yourself (make oc), check how a command is implemented, or report a bug in the CLI. Most users simply download a matching binary from their cluster’s web console or the OKD releases.
