Mura CMS : There will be times when you need to access the Mura Scope ($), but you're not in the context of a front end request. Here's an example of how you could do that, assuming your within the Application scope of Mura.

mura-scope.cfm

<cfscript>
// The Mura Scope : in order to access site-specific helpers (e.g., $.siteConfig()), we'll initialize it with a siteid.
$ = StructKeyExists(session, 'siteid') 
	? application.settingsManager.getBean('$').init(session.siteid)
	: application.settingsManager.getBean('$').init('default');

	// If you're not in the context of a Front-End Request, then there is NO ContentBean!
	// So, we need to set it if we want to access it
	// contentBean = $.getBean('content').loadBy(filename='home');
	// $.setContentBean(contentBean);
