Design a CLI interface: args, flags, help, output, errors, exit codes, config.
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 Design Design a command-line tool's interface before implementation: human-first, script-friendly, Linux-only. Output is a compact spec the user or an agent can implement directly. Rubric source: clig.dev (rebuilt as `references/clig-checklist.md`). ## Deep References | When | Load | Content | |---|---|---| | Phase 2: applying design rubric | `references/clig-checklist.md` | CLI design checklist condensed from clig.dev | ## Workflow ### Phase 1: SCOPE Lock the interface with the minimum questions. Proceed with the conventions in Phase 2 when the user is unsure. - Command name and one-sentence purpose. - Primary user: humans, scripts, or both. - Input sources: args vs stdin; files vs URLs. Secrets travel via file or stdin, because flags leak through `ps` and shell history. - Output contract: human text, `--json`, `--plain`, exit codes. - Interactivity: prompts allowed? `--no-input` needed? confirmation for destructive ops? - Config model: flags, env, config file; precedence. **Gate:** name, purpose, and I/O contract are known. Proceed only when gate passes. ### Phase 2: DESIGN …

How to install
mdr add notque/vexjoy-agent/cli-design@sha256:2b6f7a97e1ed0410The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260919.28d30f9, 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.
