What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

The legacy Ruby-based Heroku command line interface for managing Heroku applications, deployments, and platform resources. It has been superseded by the current Node.js-based Heroku CLI and is no longer maintained.

Use cases

  • manage heroku apps from the command line
  • deploy apps to heroku with git
  • view heroku app logs in terminal
  • scale heroku dynos via cli
  • provision heroku add-ons from shell
  • run heroku app locally

When to choose

  • you must maintain or audit a legacy environment pinned to the old Ruby CLI
  • you need to study the historical Ruby implementation of the Heroku CLI

When to avoid

  • you want to use the Heroku CLI today - use the current Node.js-based heroku/cli instead
  • you need bug fixes, security updates, or support for new Heroku features
  • you are setting up a new Heroku project
