What problem does it solve?
argparse-based CLIs often have inconsistent help output across projects. This skill standardizes the coloring of option tokens (starting with -) and metavars (UPPERCASE or containing _) in -h/--help, enabling controlled color strategies like auto, NO_COLOR, and FORCE_COLOR.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Standardized, colorized help formatter for Python argparse CLIs.
- Supports deterministic coloring rules for option tokens and metavar tokens, plus a tunable color enablement policy.
- Works across scripts via a reusable ColorHelpFormatter and a minimal CLI example like the included demo.
Quick Start
Run the provided demo script to verify colored --help output in a local environment.
