Hi, users do not have access to the Linux kernel. When logging in using admin, you will see a list of RP commands. You can use a client to ssh to the RPAs and execute commands to get settings, create bookmarks...etc. You should also check the  REST API documentation available on the Support and Dev community.
I have logged into the CLI of RP and I can't use vi or any Unix commands... I can run the RP commands... I thought that the OS was built on Linux but I can't even do a ls or cd... Am I wrong in my asumption because I was hoping to create some scripts as primary utilities/gets...
