# rclone — The Swiss Army Knife of Cloud Storage ## When to Use Use this skill when you need rclone command-line cloud storage manager reference and usage guide. Use this skill whenever the user mentions rclone, or any task involving terminal-based cloud file operations such as upload, download, sync, copy, move, mount, or remote management. Triggers on S3-compatible storage,... Rclone is a command-line program to manage files on cloud storage. It is a feature-rich alternative to cloud vendors' web storage interfaces. Over 70 cloud storage products support rclone including S3 object stores, business & consumer file storage services, and standard transfer protocols. Rclone has powerful cloud equivalents to the unix commands rsync, cp, mv, mount, ls, ncdu, tree, rm, and cat. It preserves timestamps and verifies checksums at all times. Transfers can be restarted from the last good file. **Official resources:** [rclone.org](https://rclone.org/) | [Docs](https://rclone.org/docs/) | [Commands](https://rclone.org/commands/) | [Install](https://rclone.org/install/) | [Forum](https://forum.rclone.org/) | [GitHub](https://github.com/rclone/rclone) ## Prerequisites Before using rclone, verify
