## From README

Prerequisites CLI installed, logged in, and cluster context set (see skill). Commands Reference All collection commands accept an optional --database flag to target a non-default database. If omitted, the database from the current context is used. Collection metrics Query per-collection metrics against POST /v2/clusters/{clusterId}/metrics/query with collectionName set in the request body. Mirrors the web console's Collection Detail \> Metrics page. The default output is an inline text chart: one block per metric with a summary line (min / max / avg / last) and a Braille-rendered line chart. Pass an explicit -o table (or --output table) to render the pivot-table layout — useful for terminals without good Braille font support. -o json, -o yaml, -o csv, and --query always bypass both renderers and return the raw response. Examples: Metric scope Each metric is tagged with a scope. zilliz collection metrics only accepts metrics whose scope is Collection or Both.
