cligen - CLI Tool Generator

Fast CLI tool scaffolding generator for Bash & Python

Overview

Generate production-ready CLI tool skeletons with proper argument parsing, help docs, error handling, and shell completions — in seconds.

Usage

For the AI Agent

When the user asks to "create a CLI tool" or "generate a command-line tool":

  1. Run cligen create with the appropriate parameters
  2. If the user specifies requirements, translate them into --commands
  3. Validate the generated tool with cligen validate
  4. Report results to the user

CLI Commands

# Generate a new CLI tool (Bash)
cligen create --name mytool --lang bash --commands "status,deploy,config" --desc "My deployment tool"

# Generate a new CLI tool (Python)
cligen create --name mytool --lang python --commands "build,test" --desc "Build tool"

# Validate an existing CLI tool
cligen validate ./mytool/

# Generate shell completions
cligen completions --shell bash --commands "build,test,deploy"

# Check development environment
cligen doctor

Options

Option Description Default
--name NAME Tool name (required) -
--desc DESC Tool description ""
--lang LANG Language: bash|python bash
--commands CMDs Comma-separated commands help,version

What Gets Generated

  • Main script — executable entry point with full arg parsing & dispatch
  • README.md — usage documentation
  • .gitignore — language-appropriate ignores
  • requirements.txt — (Python only) dependency file

Best Practice Checks

The validate command checks 10 criteria: 1. Executable main script 2. Valid shebang 3. Strict mode (Bash: set -euo pipefail) 4. Error handling 5. Argument parsing 6. Help documentation 7. Version information 8. README.md 9. .gitignore 10. Copyright header
