# List of Command-line Tools

In addition to the `qbs` command itself, a number of auxiliary tools are provided. Their file names follow the pattern `qbs-<tool name>`, and they can be invoked either using that file name or as `qbs <tool name>`.

This page is intended to give a short overview of these tools. For the supported parameters, see the respective help screen, which you get by calling `qbs help <tool name>`.
