Audit a command-line tool for user-friendliness — clear situation / next-step / options in every output, colour-highlighted runnable commands, no raw jargon, no silent hangs. Invoke for "CLI UX audit", "review my CLI", "is this CLI intuitive", or before any CLI release.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# CLI UX Review
Audits a CLI against a fixed rubric, from the perspective of a non-developer
who has never used it.
## When to invoke
- "CLI UX audit" / "review my CLI" / "is this CLI intuitive"
- Before every CLI release
- After adding or changing any CLI command
## The frame
Every command output must answer three questions:
**What is the situation? · What are the next steps? · What can I do?**
Quality bar: a command ends the way Codex ends a session — a line of plain
status, then the exact next command, rendered in a distinct colour so the eye
lands on "type this."
## Rubric (score each command against all 7)
1. **Next step present.** Every success / terminal state ends with the next
command, or an explicit "you are done." No command stalls silently.
2. **Commands are colour-highlighted.** Runnable commands render in one
consistent accent (cyan + bold). Never bare text, never literal backticks.
3. **No raw internals.** No enum values, state codes, or jargon in user output.
Human words plus a one-line legend ("dirty" becomes "local edits").
4. **No silent hang.** Long-running or stdio commands announce themselves on a
TTY, so the terminal never looks frozen.

How to install
mdr add getedgehq/skills/cli-ux-review@sha256:61b895f026003774The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260910.badf951, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
