System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Automate interactive CLI programs that require prompts and user input, enabling reliable, repeatable automation without manual intervention.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Session-based automation: Manage named pexpect sessions that persist across commands.
  • Prompt-driven workflows: Drive complex CLI interactions (SSH, databases, editors) with expect-based patterns.
  • Error handling & monitoring: Detect timeouts and EOF, surface outputs for debugging, and ensure clean termination.

Quick Start

Start a named session, spawn the target CLI, then interact incrementally with expect patterns.
