routeros-quickchr-cli

From the author

Answer a RouterOS question by asking RouterOS. quickchr boots a real, disposable MikroTik CHR router on the local machine under QEMU — no hardware, no cloud, gone when you remove it — and centrs drives it. Covers the shell path end to end: the add/start/stop/shutdown/remove lifecycle, getting the shell back (--no-wait; --bg does not), getting REST endpoints and credentials out of a machine, L2 links between two VMs, provisioning (device-mode) that applies at first boot and the set route after it, and RouterOS 6 as a boot-only target. Pinned to quickchr 0.5.2. Use when: checking a claim or config against real RouterOS instead of guessing; needing a throwaway router for REST/CLI/API iteration; giving a shell script or CI job a router to talk to. For TypeScript harnesses that import the QuickCHR class, use routeros-quickchr instead.
