I would like to help update the katacoda CLI

[managedkaos]

TLDR: I would like to assist in updating the Katacoda CLI.

Hello! I develop content for students learning DevOps concepts and tools. Particularly, I've developed content for LinkedIn Learning and Pluralsight.

I would like to use Katacoda to supplement lessons that can make use of preconfigured compute environments. Honestly, it's perfectly suited to expedite learning by offering an environment that's ready to go.

After getting familiar with the authoring environment, I was able to develop some scenarios and a course in just a couple of hours. I did all of that manually without using the CLI tool (even though I had it installed).

Now that I'm more familiar with the creation flow, I think I could move even faster using the CLI. I'm already using the CLI in my repo for scenario validation.

I'd like to help update the CLI by remediating the following errors that are issued when the tool is installed:
