The main CLI is sq. The sqv CLI is intended to be the equivalent
of gpgv, as in a verification only tool, where the full blown thing is
not necessary.

AFAIK there's a separate sq-wot tool for this. Other related
projects include sq-keyring-linter and sqop, or even the GnuPG
Chameleon, or openpgp-cert-d among others.

Given that the CLI is still in flux, I guess for now it might be
helpful, but perhaps a more descriptive one might be better, dunno.
