What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps you build powerful, user-friendly command-line interface (CLI) tools, streamlining development workflows and improving terminal application experiences.
Core Features & Use Cases
- CLI Frameworks: Implement CLIs using popular libraries like Commander.js, Click, Typer, or Cobra.
- Argument Parsing: Define and parse command-line arguments, flags, and subcommands.
- Interactive Prompts: Add interactive elements like prompts, spinners, and progress bars.
- Shell Completions: Generate auto-completion scripts for Bash, Zsh, and Fish.
- Use Case: You need to create a new CLI tool for managing project deployments. This Skill can guide you through designing the command structure, implementing argument parsing for environments and flags, adding a progress bar for the deployment process, and generating shell completions for easy use.
Quick Start
Use the cli-developer skill to create a basic Node.js CLI application using the commander library that accepts a 'greet <name>' command with an optional '--loud' flag.
