Reference guide for CLI-Anything, which auto-generates production-ready agent-controllable CLI harnesses for any GUI application via a 7-phase.

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

Auto-generates production-ready, agent-controllable CLI interfaces for any GUI application with accessible source code. A 7-phase pipeline maps GUI actions to backend APIs and emits Click-based harnesses with `--json` output mode, interactive REPL, and pytest test suites.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add terrylica/cc-skills/cli-anything@sha256:a3dca906a16b1451

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260506.c488415, 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.
