## When it is useful

AIStor mc CLI against S3-compatible storage (alias, ls/cp, versioning, replication, Tables).

## The Catch

Targets AIStor — github.com/minio/minio is archived. Requires mc on PATH. Destructive ops. Works against AWS S3 too (false-fire vs AWS CLI). Distinct from neon-object-storage. AIStor Free $0 standalone/single-node only (no distributed HA).
