cli-for-agents

cli-for-agents is a Design patterns & component architecture skill for AI agents, published by pproenca in the dot-skills repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates cli-for-agents C (71/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Designing CLIs that AI agents will invoke — non-interactive flags, layered --help with examples, stdin/pipeline composition, actionable errors, idempotency, dry-run, destructive-action safety, and predictable command structure. Use when designing, building, or reviewing a command-line tool that AI agents or automation will invoke. Trigger even if the user doesn't explicitly say "agent-friendly" — apply whenever they are writing `--help` text, adding a new subcommand, designing error messages, or reviewing a CLI's UX.
