RDK #6198 added a new --check-connection-interval global flag to the Viam CLI. For commands that connect to a machine, this flag controls how often the CLI checks the connection and closes the client if a faulty connection cannot be repaired. The default is 0 (disabled), which is a change from the previous behavior where the robot client's built-in 10-second connection check was always active.
