🤔 Why CLI?

CLI is the universal interface for both humans and AI agents:

• Structured & Composable - Text commands match LLM format and chain for complex workflows

• Lightweight & Universal - Minimal overhead, works across all systems without dependencies

• Self-Describing - --help flags provide automatic documentation agents can discover

• Proven Success - Claude Code runs thousands of real workflows through CLI daily

• Agent-First Design - Structured JSON output eliminates parsing complexity

• Deterministic & Reliable - Consistent results enable predictable agent behavior

🚀 Quick Start

CLI-Anything has two equally useful starting points:

Goal Start Here

Use the existing CLI ecosystem now Install cli-anything-hub , browse the registry, and install ready-made CLIs.

Build a new agent-native CLI Install the CLI-Anything plugin/skill for your agent, then run the 7-phase harness generator.

Phase 1: Empower yourself — your CLI toolkit Install the CLI-Hub package manager first. It lets you browse, search, inspect, install, update, uninstall, and launch CLI-Anything harnesses plus public third-party CLIs from one command.

PIP

pip install cli-anything-hub

Command What it does

cli-hub list Browse the registry

cli-hub search <query> Search by keyword

cli-hub info <name> Inspect one CLI

cli-hub install <name> Install from CLI-Hub

cli-hub update <name> Update an install

cli-hub uninstall <name> Remove an install

cli-hub launch <name> [args...] Run an installed CLI

Browse what is available

cli-hub list cli-hub search image

Install and try a CLI immediately

cli-hub install gimp cli-hub info gimp cli-hub launch gimp

Some CLIs wrap real desktop or backend software. If a selected CLI needs GIMP, Blender, LibreOffice, or another upstream tool, install that upstream application too.

Phase 1.5: Empower your agents — install in one command Give SKILL-compatible agents the CLI-Hub meta-skill so they can discover and install the right CLI for a task.

Also available on: ClawHub , SkillHub , SkillHub.cn

NPX SKILLS

npx skills add HKUDS/CLI-Anything --skill cli-hub-meta-skill -g -y

Works with: OpenClaw, Nanobot, Claude Code, Codex, Reasonix, Antigravity, and other SKILL-compatible agents.

Then prompt:

Find appropriate CLI software in CLI-Hub and complete the task: ...

Phase 3: Build a new CLI when the registry does not have one yet Use the CLI-Anything generator when you need a new harness for software, a codebase, or an internal tool that is not already available through CLI-Hub.

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+

• Target software or source repo available locally or online

• A supported AI coding agent: Claude Code | Cursor | Pi | OpenClaw | OpenCode | Codex | Hermes | Reasonix | Qodercli | GitHub Copilot CLI | More Platforms

Pick Your Agent Platform

⚡ Claude Code

Step 1: Add the Marketplace

CLI-Anything is distributed as a Claude Code plugin marketplace hosted on GitHub.

Add the CLI-Anything marketplace

/plugin marketplace add HKUDS/CLI-Anything

Step 2: Install the Plugin

Install the cli-anything plugin from the marketplace

/plugin install cli-anything

That's it. The plugin is now available in your Claude Code session.

Note for Win Users: Claude Code runs shell commands via bash . On Windows, install Git for Windows (includes bash and cygpath ) or use WSL; otherwise commands may fail with cygpath: command not found .

Step 3: Build a CLI in One Command

/cli-anything <software-path-or-repo>

Generate a complete CLI for GIMP (all 7 phases)

/cli-anything ./gimp

Command compatibility across Claude Code versions:

• Use /cli-anything as the primary entrypoint.

• On older builds where /cli-anything isn't recognized after confirming the plugin is installed and loaded , try the legacy entry form /cli-anything:cli-anything .

• Auxiliary commands keep the :subcommand form (e.g. /cli-anything:refine ).

If you see Unknown skill: cli-anything , focus on plugin install/load first (both entry forms reference the same skill, so swapping forms won't help):

• Reload plugin commands: /reload-plugins

• Verify the plugin is loaded: /help cli-anything (CLI-Anything help/commands should appear)

• Reinstall from marketplace if needed:

• /plugin marketplace add HKUDS/CLI-Anything

• /plugin install cli-anything

• After confirming the plugin is available, retry the entry command:

• Preferred: /cli-anything ./gimp

• Older builds only: /cli-anything:cli-anything ./gimp

This runs the full pipeline:

• 🔍 Analyze — Scans source code, maps GUI actions to APIs

• 📐 Design — Architects command groups, state model, output formats

• 🔨 Implement — Builds Click CLI with REPL, JSON output, undo/redo

• 📋 Plan Tests — Creates TEST.md with unit + E2E test plans

• 🧪 Write Tests — Implements comprehensive test suite

• 📝 Document — Updates TEST.md with results

• 📦 Publish — Creates setup.py , installs to PATH

Step 4 (Optional): Refine and Improve the CLI

After the initial build, you can iteratively refine the CLI to expand coverage and add missing capabilities:

Broad refinement — agent analyzes gaps across all capabilities

/cli-anything:refine ./gimp

Focused refinement — target a specific functionality area

/cli-anything:refine ./gimp " I want more CLIs on image batch processing and filters "

The refine command performs gap analysis between the software's full capabilities and current CLI coverage, then implements new commands, tests, and documentation for the identified gaps.

You can run it multiple times to steadily expand coverage — each run is incremental and non-destructive.

Alternative: Manual Installation If you prefer not to use the marketplace:

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/HKUDS/CLI-Anything.git

Copy plugin to Claude Code plugins directory

cp -r CLI-Anything/cli-anything-plugin ~ /.claude/plugins/cli-anything

Reload plugins

/reload-plugins

⚡ Pi Coding Agent

Step 1: Install the Extension

The extension lives at .pi-extension/cli-anything/ in this repository. Install it globally so /cli-anything commands are available in all Pi projects:

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/HKUDS/CLI-Anything.git

cd CLI-Anything

Install globally into Pi's extensions directory

bash .pi-extension/cli-anything/install.sh

To uninstall:

bash .pi-extension/cli-anything/install.sh --uninstall

How it works: install.sh copies the extension files (including HARNESS.md, commands, guides, scripts, and templates from cli-anything-plugin/ ) into ~/.pi/agent/extensions/cli-anything/ , which Pi auto-discovers on startup. Run /reload in Pi or restart Pi to activate.

Step 2: Build a CLI in One Command

Once the extension is loaded, the following commands are available:

Generate a complete CLI for GIMP (all 7 phases)

/cli-anything ./gimp

Build from a GitHub repo

/cli-anything https://github.com/blender/blender

Step 3 (Optional): Refine and Improve the CLI

Broad refinement — agent analyzes gaps across all capabilities

/cli-anything:refine ./gimp

Focused refinement — target a specific functionality area

/cli-anything:refine ./gimp " batch processing and filters "

Available Commands

Command Description

/cli-anything <path-or-repo> Build a complete CLI harness

/cli-anything:refine <path> [focus] Refine an existing CLI harness

/cli-anything:test <path-or-repo> Run tests for a CLI harness

/cli-anything:validate <path-or-repo> Validate a CLI harness

/cli-anything:list [options] List all CLI-Anything tools

⚡ OpenCode (Experimental)

Step 1: Install the Commands

Note: Please upgrade to the latest OpenCode. Older versions may use a different commands path.

Copy the CLI-Anything commands and HARNESS.md to your OpenCode commands directory:

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/HKUDS/CLI-Anything.git

Global install (available in all projects)

cp CLI-Anything/opencode-commands/ * .md ~ /.config/opencode/commands/

cp CLI-Anything/cli-anything-plugin/HARNESS.md ~ /.config/opencode/commands/

Or project-level install

cp CLI-Anything/opencode-commands/ * .md .opencode/commands/

cp CLI-Anything/cli-anything-plugin/HARNESS.md .opencode/commands/

Note: Please upgrade to the latest OpenCode. Older versions use command/ (singular) instead of commands/ . If commands/ does not exist, use command/ for both global and project-level installs.

Note: HARNESS.md is the methodology spec that all commands reference. It must be in the same directory as the commands.

This adds 5 slash commands: /cli-anything , /cli-anything-refine , /cli-anything-test , /cli-anything-validate , and /cli-anything-list .

Step 2: Build a CLI in One Command

Generate a complete CLI for GIMP (all 7 phases)

/cli-anything ./gimp

Build from a GitHub repo

/cli-anything https://github.com/blender/blender

The command runs as a subtask and follows the same 7-phase methodology as Claude Code.

Step 3 (Optional): Refine and Improve the CLI

Broad refinement — agent analyzes gaps across all capabilities

/cli-anything-refine ./gimp

Focused refinement — target a specific functionality area

/cli-anything-refine ./gimp " batch processing and filters "

⚡ Goose (Desktop / CLI) Experimental Community

Step 1: Install Goose

Install Goose (Desktop or CLI) using the official Goose instructions for your OS.

Step 2: Configure a CLI Provider

Configure Goose to use a CLI provider such as Claude Code, and make sure that CLI is installed and authenticated.

Step 3: Use CLI-Anything in a Goose Session

Once Goose is configured, start a session and use the same CLI-Anything commands described above for Claude Code, for example:

/cli-anything ./gimp /cli-anything:refine ./gimp " batch processing and filters "

Note: When Goose runs through a CLI provider, it uses that provider's capabilities and command format.

⚡ Qodercli Community

Step 1: Register the Plugin

git clone https://github.com/HKUDS/CLI-Anything.git

bash CLI-Anything/qoder-plugin/setup-qodercli.sh

This registers the cli-anything plugin in ~/.qoder.json . Start a new Qodercli session after registration.

Step 2: Use CLI-Anything from Qodercli

/cli-anything ./gimp /cli-anything:refine ./gimp " batch processing and filters " /cli-anything:validate ./gimp

⚡ OpenClaw Community

Step 1: Install the Skill

CLI-Anything provides a native OpenClaw SKILL.md file. Copy it to your OpenClaw skills directory:

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/HKUDS/CLI-Anything.git

Install to the global skills folder

mkdir -p ~ /.openclaw/skills/cli-anything

cp CLI-Anything/openclaw-skill/SKILL.md ~ /.openclaw/skills/cli-anything/SKILL.md

Step 2: Build a CLI

Now you can invoke the skill inside OpenClaw:

@cli-anything build a CLI for ./gimp

The skill follows the same 7-phase methodology as Claude Code and OpenCode.

⚡ Cursor

Cursor gets both tracks:

Track Purpose Install

Generator Build new harnesses with /cli-anything (and refine/test/validate/list) Cursor plugin in cursor-plugin/

Consumer Find/install/use published CLIs from CLI-Hub

npx skills + cli-hub (unchanged)

Generator — install the Cursor plugin

git clone https://github.com/HKUDS/CLI-Anything.git

bash CLI-Anything/cursor-plugin/scripts/install.sh

Windows PowerShell:

.\CLI - Anything\cursor - plugin\scripts\install.ps1

Upgrade with --force / -Force . Default install path is ~/.cursor/plugins/local/cli-anything (override with CURSOR_PLUGINS_HOME pointing at a directory named plugins ). The installer vendors cli-anything-plugin/ methodology resources and writes PLUGIN_ROOT.

txt plus ~/.cursor/cli-anything-generator.root so Cursor agents can resolve absolute methodology paths.

Reload the Cursor window ( Developer: Reload Window ), then:

/cli-anything ./gimp /cli-anything-refine ./shotcut "picture-in-picture workflows" /cli-anything-test ./libreoffice /cli-anything-validate ./libreoffice /cli-anything-list

Consumer — Hub / skills (separate from the generator plugin)

npx skills add HKUDS/CLI-Anything --skill cli-hub-meta-skill -g -y

or a per-app skill, e.g. cli-anything-blender

pip install cli-anything-hub

Verify the plugin installer locally:

bash CLI-Anything/cursor-plugin/tests/test_install.sh

See cursor-plugin/README.md for troubleshooting local plugin loading.

⚡ Codex Experimental Community

Step 1: Install the Skill

Run the bundled installer:

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/HKUDS/CLI-Anything.git

Install the skill

bash CLI-Anything/codex-skill/scripts/install.sh

On Windows PowerShell, use:

.\CLI - Anything\codex - skill\scripts\install.ps1

This installs the skill to $CODEX_HOME/skills/cli-anything (or ~/.codex/skills/cli-anything if CODEX_HOME is unset). The installer also vendors the canonical HARNESS.

md , command specifications, on-demand guides, reusable helper scripts, skill template, and preview protocol into the installed skill's references/ and scripts/ directories.

This keeps the Codex skill self-contained while using cli-anything-plugin/ as the source of truth.

Restart Codex after installation so it is discovered.

Step 2: Use CLI-Anything from Codex

Describe the task in natural language, for example:

Use CLI-Anything to build a harness for ./gimp Use CLI-Anything to refine ./shotcut for picture-in-picture workflows Use CLI-Anything to validate ./libreoffice Use CLI-Anything to list generated harnesses under the current directory

The Codex skill adapts the same methodology used by the Claude Code plugin and OpenCode commands, while keeping the generated Python harness format unchanged.

To verify the self-contained Codex installation locally:

bash CLI-Anything/codex-skill/tests/test_install.sh

⚡ Hermes Experimental Community

Step 1: Install the Skill

Run the bundled installer:

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/HKUDS/CLI-Anything.git

Install the skill

bash CLI-Anything/hermes-skill/scripts/install.sh

On Windows PowerShell, use:

.\CLI - Anything\hermes - skill\scripts\install.ps1

This installs the skill to $HERMES_HOME/skills/cli-anything-hermes (or ~/.hermes/skills/cli-anything-hermes if HERMES_HOME is unset).

Restart Hermes Agent after installation so it is discovered.

Step 2: Use CLI-Anything from Hermes

Describe the task in natural language, for example:

Use CLI-Anything to build a harness for ./gimp Use CLI-Anything to refine ./shotcut for picture-in-picture workflows Use CLI-Anything to validate ./libreoffice

The Hermes skill adapts the same methodology used by the Claude Code plugin and Codex skill, binding Hermes's terminal , execute_code , delegate_task , and read_file / write_file / patch tools to the 7-phase harness workflow while keeping the generated Python harness format unchanged.

⚡ Reasonix Experimental Community

Step 1: Install the Skill

Run the bundled installer:

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/HKUDS/CLI-Anything.git

Install the skill

bash CLI-Anything/reasonix-skill/scripts/install.sh

On Windows PowerShell, use:

.\CLI - Anything\reasonix - skill\scripts\install.ps1

This installs the skill to Reasonix's global skill directory at ~/.reasonix/skills/cli-anything .

Restart Reasonix after installation so it is discovered.

Step 2: Use CLI-Anything from Reasonix

Describe the task in natural language, for example:

Use CLI-Anything to build a harness for ./gimp Use CLI-Anything to refine ./shotcut for picture-in-picture workflows Use CLI-Anything to validate ./libreoffice

The Reasonix skill adapts the same methodology used by the Claude Code plugin and Codex/Hermes skills, binding Reasonix's bash , write_file , edit_file , multi_edit , grep , glob , and optional mcp__codegraph__search / mcp__codegraph__context tools to the 7-phase harness workflow while keeping the generated Python harness format unchanged.

⚡ GitHub Copilot CLI Community

Step 1: Install the Plugin

git clone https://github.com/HKUDS/CLI-Anything.git

cd CLI-Anything

copilot plugin install ./cli-anything-plugin

This installs the CLI-Anything plugin to GitHub Copilot CLI. The plugin should now be available in your GitHub Copilot CLI session.

Step 2: Use CLI-Anything from GitHub Copilot CLI

/cli-anything ./gimp /cli-anything:refine ./gimp " batch processing and filters " /cli-anything:validate ./gimp

🔮 More Platforms (Coming Soon)

CLI-Anything is designed to be platform-agnostic. Support for more AI coding agents is planned:

• Cursor — available via the Cursor plugin in cursor-plugin/ (generator) plus Hub/skills (consumer)

• Codex — available via the bundled skill in codex-skill/

• Windsurf — coming soon

• Your favorite tool — contributions welcome! See the opencode-commands/ directory for a reference implementation.

Use the Generated CLI

Regardless of which platform you used to build it, the generated CLI works the same way:

Install to PATH

cd gimp/agent-harness && pip install -e .

Use from anywhere

cli-anything-gimp --help cli-anything-gimp project new --width 1920 --height 1080 -o poster.json cli-anything-gimp --json layer add -n " Background " --type solid --color " #1a1a2e "

Enter interactive REPL

cli-anything-gimp

Each in-repo harness now has a canonical SKILL.md at skills/cli-anything-<software>/SKILL.md , which makes the monorepo directly discoverable via npx skills add HKUDS/CLI-Anything --list .

Installed harness packages still ship a compatibility copy at cli_anything/<software>/skills/SKILL.md , and the REPL banner prefers the repo-root canonical file when
