cli-tooling-engineering

v0.1.4

CLI-tooling-engineering team — agents (cli-architect, cli-implementation-engineer, tui-engineer, cli-distribution-engineer) for command-line tools and TUIs that feel native to the shell: the command/subcommand + flag/positional surface, config precedence (flags > env > file > default), the output contract (human by default, --json on demand, exit codes as an API, data->stdout/diagnostics->stderr, NO_COLOR/TTY detection), stdin, signal handling, TUIs (Ink / Bubble Tea / Textual / ratatui) with a non-TTY fallback, shell completions, and distribution (single static binary, Homebrew / Scoop / winget / npm / pipx, --version + update path). skills, a knowledge bank (command-surface + output/exit-code + framework + distribution decision trees + a dated 2026 map), best-practices, templates, commands, an advisory hook. Seams: service logic -> backend-engineering, release/signing -> devops-cicd, GUI sibling -> desktop-app-engineering, docs -> technical-writing-docs. Requires ravenclaude-core@>=0.7.0.

claude plugin install cli-tooling-engineering@agent-plugin-marketplace

Paste and run these commands in a terminal with Claude Code. They add and refresh the PluginsMP catalog, then install this plugin.

The installer fetches third-party code from the source repository shown on this page. This directory validates manifest structure and source location, but does not perform a security audit; review the manifest, components, and source before installing.

Get the source manually

Included Skills5

cli-design-and-arg-parsingskills/cli-design-and-arg-parsing/SKILL.md

Design a CLI's command/subcommand surface, flags vs positionals, and config precedence (flags > env > file > default), then pick the idiomatic parser for the language. Use when starting a CLI or reworking a messy one.

cli-distribution-and-packagingskills/cli-distribution-and-packaging/SKILL.md

Plan how a CLI ships and updates — single static binary vs runtime package, cross-compilation, install channels (Homebrew/Scoop/winget/npm/pipx), a build-stamped --version, and a safe installer. Use when making a tool installable and keeping it current.

output-and-exit-code-contractskills/output-and-exit-code-contract/SKILL.md

Define a CLI's output contract — human by default, --json on demand, data to stdout, diagnostics to stderr — and an exit-code map treated as a public API. Use when a tool must serve both humans and scripts, or CI keeps passing on real failures.

shell-completions-and-configskills/shell-completions-and-config/SKILL.md

Generate shell completions (bash/zsh/fish/PowerShell) from the parser and design config-file discovery + env-var conventions (XDG, TOOL_* prefixes). Use when adding tab completion or a config/env layer to a CLI.

tui-designskills/tui-design/SKILL.md

Decide whether a full-screen TUI is warranted (vs a scriptable CLI), pick the framework (Ink / Bubble Tea / Textual / ratatui), and design the render-loop + non-TTY fallback. Use for interactive terminal dashboards, pickers, and wizards.
