Verify terminal-hosted CLI or TUI behavior with repeatable local evidence. Use for output, prompts, interactive input, signals, hangs, resizing, startup, exit status, or terminal restoration; not for browser, desktop, or Electron interfaces, which belong to ui-control.
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 Control
Gather reproducible evidence from a terminal-hosted interface without changing production behavior.
## Workflow
1. Identify the command, the working directory, the terminal conditions, and the observable contract.
2. Choose the method. Run ordinary output and exit-status checks directly or through the repository's tests. A command run through a pipe has no terminal, and many programs then skip prompts, colors, or line editing, so piped output does not prove terminal behavior. Use a pseudo-terminal for prompts, interactive input, signals, resizing, hangs, or restoration.
3. Bound every run with the host's command timeout or `timeout`, so a hang becomes evidence instead of a stuck session.
4. Prefer an existing trusted harness. Otherwise use `tmux` as the pseudo-terminal:
```sh
tmux new-session -d -s probe -x 120 -y 40
tmux set-option -t probe remain-on-exit on
tmux respawn-pane -k -t probe '<command>'
tmux capture-pane -t probe -p # read the screen
tmux send-keys -t probe 'text' Enter # type; C-c sends SIGINT
tmux resize-window -t probe -x 80 -y 24
tmux display -p -t probe '#{pane_dead} #{pane_dead_status}' # exit status
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add yarlson/yarstack/cli-control@sha256:8b22d53374463299The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261017.2f2e03b, 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.
