Use cases

CCE supports dozens of workflows beyond a single cloud entitlement scan. Each use case has:

  • A guide under use-cases/guides/<name>/ on this site (why, what, CLI, CI, limitations)
  • An optional lens (*_lenses.yaml) published to releases.stackgen.com/cce/lenses/
  • An optional analysis recipe in pkg/recipes/catalog.json for cce catalog and cce run -recipes

Resource What you get
Use case catalog All workflows by category — examples and full guides on this site
Analysis recipes & packs Machine-readable recipe catalog aligned with cce catalog
Get Started Install and common one-liners
Known limitations Platform-wide and per-use-case bounds

Recipe vs lens vs pack

Concept Purpose
Lens YAML Grok rules (-mapper-file or recipe lens_url)
Recipe Named scan in catalog.json — discoverable via cce catalog
Pack Several recipes, one parse — cce run -pack modernization-pack

Not every use case is a registered recipe yet. The catalog shows which rows support cce run -recipes <id> today; add entries in pkg/recipes/catalog.json to register more.
