A skill that evaluates whether a CLI is reliably usable by AI agents and helps you design CLIs that serve humans, agents, and orchestration systems at the same time. Built around seven principles, a 14-criterion rubric, and a structured refactor playbook.
- Evaluates whether an existing CLI is reliably usable by AI agents
- Designs CLI interfaces that serve humans, agents, and orchestration systems simultaneously
- Converts REST APIs and SDKs into agent-native CLI command trees
- Reviews stdout contracts, exit code semantics, and error envelope design
- Designs schema-driven self-description, dry-run previews, and schema introspection
- Defines safety tiers (open / warned / hidden) for graduated command visibility
- Designs delegated authentication so agents never own the auth lifecycle
- Produces prioritized refactor plans with concrete interface examples
| Doc | What's inside |

| docs/changelog.md | Version history from v1.1.0 through v1.4.0 |
| SKILL.md | Workflow guide loaded by the agent |
| references/ | On-demand reference material — design patterns, rubric, checklists, examples, testing recipes, citations |
