System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

AI agents waste tokens by repeatedly sending large, verbose tool schemas, and developers often need custom code generation to expose APIs as usable command-line tools.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Runtime API-to-CLI conversion: Convert MCP servers (HTTP/SSE or stdio), OpenAPI specs, and GraphQL endpoints into a command-line interface without codegen.
  • Authentication and OAuth support: Handle API keys and OAuth flows with token caching and refresh.
  • Schema and usage efficiency: Cache tool discovery and rank tool outputs by usage to reduce repeated context cost by 96–99%.
  • “Bake” reusable configurations: Save named connection settings (filters, includes/excludes, cache TTL) so you can run consistent CLIs later with simple invocations.
  • Use cases: Build agent-friendly CLIs for internal services, quickly wrap third-party APIs, and reduce token overhead during tool calling.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to convert an OpenAPI spec into a CLI and list available endpoints by running mcp2cli against that spec.
