cli-review-runner

Automates the 10-item agent-friendliness audit from cli-for-agents. Runs black-box probes against a target CLI and emits a structured report mapping each finding to a rule ID (e.g., help-examples-in-help, err-non-zero-exit-codes, safe-dry-run-flag). Default mode is read-only - probes never run destructive verbs with real arguments.

When to Apply

  • User asks to review or audit a CLI for agent-friendliness, automation readiness, or CI use
  • User has just finished building a CLI and wants a pre-ship sanity check
  • User is grading their own or a third-party CLI against the cli-for-agents catalog
  • User is asking why a CLI is hanging an agent, blowing up context, or failing to compose in a pipeline
  • PR review for a CLI change - quickly regress-test the --help, errors, and dry-run flags

How to Use

The skill is orchestrated by scripts/review.sh. Point it at the target CLI (absolute path or PATH-resolvable name) and pick an output format.

# Default: text table on stdout, exit 0 if all passed, 1 if any failed
bash scripts/review.sh --target /usr/local/bin/mycli
