Headless Install

Domain: Installation & Setup

Motivation

A headless install is a minimal footprint focused on the headless profile for automation, running one fresh persisted session, printing the final answer, and exiting. It auto-initializes the headless profile from its shipped template. A developer cares because it is the lightest way to script dsh in CI or servers with no GUI.

Concrete Example

dsh --profile headless "run the tests" auto-initializes and runs the headless profile for one-shot automation.

Analogy

Like buying just the engine, not the whole car, because you only need to do one job.
