raff role

_{Updated May 10, 2026} The raff role command group manages IAM roles. System roles (Owner, Admin, Operator, Member, etc.) are immutable and managed by the platform; only custom roles can be created here. Every subcommand supports --output json for scripting. Alias: raff roles.

Subcommand index
