CLUI (Command Line User Interface) is Replit’s interactive command bar that lets you perform various actions quickly without navigating through menus. It combines the efficiency of a command line with a graphical interface.

​
Features

CLUI provides powerful command-driven interactions across three different contexts in Replit:
  • Settings management: Manage your settings, view warnings, and restore deleted Replit Apps
  • Quick navigation: Move between your Replit Apps and access common features via shortcuts
  • Workspace operations: Find files, search code, and access tools within your development environment

​
