CLI-Anything turns software and services into command-line interfaces that AI agents can use to perform tasks and produce artifacts. It is intended for people building or using agent workflows with tools such as coding assistants, design software, and other applications. The catalogue entries are skills, commands, a plugin, and a rule for working with CLI-Anything.
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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00060 | $0.01065 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00030 | $0.00532 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00213 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00106 |
Grade A, and why
cli-anything-mermaid 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 8d 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 — 183 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
cli-anything-mermaid
Create, edit, and render Mermaid diagrams via stateful project files and the mermaid.ink renderer. Designed for AI agents and power users who need to generate flowcharts, sequence diagrams, and other visualizations without a GUI.
Installation
This CLI is installed as part of the cli-anything-mermaid package:
pip install cli-anything-mermaid
Prerequisites:
- Python 3.10+
- No external software required (rendering uses mermaid.ink cloud service)
Usage
Basic Commands
# Show help
cli-anything-mermaid --help
# Start interactive REPL mode
cli-anything-mermaid
# Create a new project
cli-anything-mermaid project new -o diagram.json
# Run with JSON output (for agent consumption)
cli-anything-mermaid --json project info
REPL Mode
When invoked without a subcommand, the CLI enters an interactive REPL session:
cli-anything-mermaid
# Enter commands interactively with tab-completion and history

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.

cli-anything-mermaid is a skill published in the GitHub repository HKUDS/CLI-Anything (49,083 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 1,065 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-30.
