The primary purpose of the Azure DevOps CLI is to perform DevOps actions from command-line tools. This command-line interface allows users to manage various Azure DevOps services directly from the command line, providing a powerful way to automate and script DevOps workflows. It enables users to interact with Azure DevOps organizations, projects, and services such as repositories, pipelines, boards, and test plans efficiently without needing to navigate through the Azure DevOps web portal.

With the Azure DevOps CLI, developers and DevOps engineers can execute tasks such as creating and managing pipelines, handling work items, and querying project repositories, all through a consistent command-line experience. This is particularly useful in scenarios where automation, continuous integration and deployment, and DevOps practices are implemented, enhancing productivity and streamlining processes.

While creating visual dashboards, managing containers, and developing mobile applications are activities that might occur in an Azure environment, they do not represent the core functionality or primary intent of the Azure DevOps CLI, which focuses on facilitating direct command-line interactions with Azure DevOps services.
