We've just released Wordfence CLI 2.1.0 which includes two exciting new capabilities.
Wordfence CLI can now email you a summary of scan results for both the malware scan and the vulnerability scan.
These emails can be sent directly, or via an SMTP server.
Now when Wordfence CLI detects malware or finds a vulnerable plugin or theme, CLI will notify you of the results.
The second feature adds a non-interactive configuration option that allows Wordfence CLI to be deployed at scale, unattended, by operations teams using configuration management.
We wanted to avoid forcing users to run CLI in interactive mode, because we understand that larger network administrators will be deploying CLI unattended and automatically using configuration management systems.
Get Emails From CLI. Wordfence CLI can be configured to send a summary of scan results for both the malware scan and the vulnerability scan to your email address.
The email will only be sent when the scan finds something a file containing malware, or a WordPress plugin that has a vulnerability.
Wordfence CLI can also be configured to use an external SMTP server.
We recommend storing the SMTP credentials in the INI rather than supplying them as command-line parameters.

We've added a non-interactive configuration that allows users to deploy and automatically configure Wordfence CLI without having to go through prompts to create the initial INI file.
This is useful when deploying CLI across multiple servers or environments where the configuration may differ between systems.
Wordfence CLI 2.1.0 also fixes several bugs.
