What problem does it solve?

Manually wrapping a CLI into a tool dashboard is error-prone and time-consuming. This skill automates creating a tool.json and a deterministic main.py to run the CLI from Pixie's UI.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automatic tool.json generation from CLI flags and a per-invocation, isolated execution environment
  • Deterministic main.py to run the CLI inside a per-invocation temporary directory
  • End-to-end validation of the tool workflow, ensuring successful tool creation and operation
  • Enforces non-interactive execution and strict timeout handling across supported CLIs

Quick Start

Provide the CLI name and required arguments, and Pixie will scaffold and validate the tool.
