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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00116 | $0.08026 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00058 | $0.04013 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00023 | $0.01605 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00803 |
Grade A, and why
drive-tui scanned grade A with 0 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.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 365 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
drive-tui
Drive interactive terminal programs the way a human does: look at the screen, decide, press keys, wait, look again. A normal subprocess/pipe can't do this — line-buffered pipes hide menus, spinners, and prompts, and many programs refuse to run without a real TTY. This skill uses smartcli_core (a PTY + pyte screen model + semantic snapshots + readiness waits) behind a thin CLI, scripts/tui.py.
When to use
- Launching a program that draws a full-screen or line-mode UI and expects keystrokes (REPLs, installers,
vim, agent CLIs, arrow-key menus, y/n prompts, password entry). - A piped command hangs, prints nothing, or says "not a terminal".
- You need to see what an interactive program is showing right now, then act on it.
- Do NOT use for non-interactive commands whose full output you just want captured — run those directly.
Core mental model: the perceive → decide → act loop
Never fire keystrokes blind and never guess with sleep. Every interaction is one turn of this loop:
- Perceive — take a snapshot. Read the header line (cursor position, selected row, status bar, errors) and the row-numbered body.
- Decide — classify the screen: is it a menu, a text prompt, a confirmation, a spinner still loading, an error, or a finished result? Decide the single next action.
- Act — translate intent into key tokens and send them (
send-line,send-text, orkeys). - Wait — call
wait/wait-regex. NEVERsleep. The wait pumps output until the screen settles or an expected marker appears. - Confirm — re-snapshot and verify the screen changed as expected before the next action.
Setup
scripts/tui.py adds the repo root to sys.path itself, so run it from anywhere. It locates smartcli_core via smartcli_bootstrap.locate_core(): $SMARTCLI_ROOT → walk up every parent of the script for a dir containing smartcli_core/__init__.py → a bundled _vendor/ next to the skill → an existing pip install (there is no fixed "N levels up"). It also needs the deps pyte + pywinpty (Windows) importable. Set SMARTCLI_ROOT to override, or run tui.py doctor to report where the core resolved and which deps are missing.

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.

drive-tui is a skill published in the GitHub repository dwgx/SmartCLI (3 stars, last pushed 22d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 116 tokens to every session and 8,026 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
