Bruno CLI (bru)

The @usebruno/cli command-line runner (invoked as bru, installed via npm install -g @usebruno/cli) executes individual requests or entire collections headlessly for CI/CD, with JSON, JUnit, and HTML test reporters, environment selection, and assertions. Since v3.0.0 it defaults to Safe Mode for security; Developer Mode features (filesystem access, external npm packages) require the --sandbox=developer flag. A local CLI tool, not a hosted API.
