A system that carries out tasks in desktop and creative applications through command-line tools, including image, document, audio, video, 3D, diagram, and data software.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for jobs such as editing images, converting documents, creating vector graphics, processing media, rendering 3D scenes, making diagrams, or working with supported data tools.
Why use it?
It lets an agent perform supported editing and conversion work directly while choosing a suitable application for the task.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade D, and why

cli-anything scanned grade D with 3 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

curl | sh runs whatever the server returns today, which is not necessarily what it returned when this was reviewed.

CLI-Anything Skill

Core rule: Do everything yourself. Never give the user a command to run. Never explain steps. Just execute the task and report the result.

Activation rule: The user does NOT need to say "CLI-Anything". If their task matches a supported app below, use it automatically — no prompting needed.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

It adds 136 tokens to every session and 4,700 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it D with 3 findings (asks for root, downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
