+<p>chef-shell is tool that allows Knife to be run using an Interactive Ruby (IRb) session. chef-shell currently supports recipe and attribute file syntax, as well as interactive debugging features. chef-shell has three run modes:</p>

+<tr class="row-even"><td>Standalone</td>
+<td>No cookbooks are loaded, and the run list is empty. This mode is the default.</td>
+</tr>
+<tr class="row-odd"><td>Solo</td>
+<td>chef-shell acts as a chef-solo client. It attempts to load the chef-solo configuration file and JSON attributes. If the JSON attributes set a run list, it will be honored. Cookbooks will be loaded in the same way that chef-solo loads them. chef-solo mode is activated with the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-s</span></tt> or <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--solo</span></tt> command line option, and JSON attributes are specified in the same way as for chef-solo, with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-j</span> <span class="pre">/path/to/chef-solo.json</span></tt>.</td>
+</tr>
+<tr class="row-even"><td>Client</td>
+<td>chef-shell acts as a chef-client. During startup, it reads the chef-client configuration file and contacts the server to get attributes and cookbooks. The run list will be set in the same way as normal chef-client runs. chef-client mode is activated with the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-z</span></tt> or <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--client</span></tt> options. You can also specify the configuration file with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-c</span> <span class="pre">CONFIG</span></tt> and the server URL with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-S</span> <span class="pre">SERVER_URL</span></tt>.</td>
