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 5.1 | $0.00031 | $0.00864 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00346 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00173 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00086 |
Grade A, and why
create-cli 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 1mo 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.
This is a copy
92% identical to create-cli — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 89 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Create CLI
Design CLI surface area (syntax + behavior), human-first, script-friendly.
Do This First
- Read
agent-scripts/skills/create-cli/references/cli-guidelines.mdand apply it as the default rubric. - Upstream/full guidelines: https://clig.dev/ (propose changes: https://github.com/cli-guidelines/cli-guidelines)
- Ask only the minimum clarifying questions needed to lock the interface.
Clarify (fast)
Ask, then proceed with best-guess defaults if user is unsure:
- Command name + one-sentence purpose.
- Primary user: humans, scripts, or both.
- Input sources: args vs stdin; files vs URLs; secrets (never via flags).
- Output contract: human text,
--json,--plain, exit codes. - Interactivity: prompts allowed? need
--no-input? confirmations for destructive ops? - Config model: flags/env/config-file; precedence; XDG vs repo-local.
- Platform/runtime constraints: macOS/Linux/Windows; single binary vs runtime.
Deliverables (what to output)
When designing a CLI, produce a compact spec the user can implement:
- Command tree + USAGE synopsis.
- Args/flags table (types, defaults, required/optional, examples).
- Subcommand semantics (what each does; idempotence; state changes).
- Output rules: stdout vs stderr; TTY detection;
--json/--plain;--quiet/--verbose. - Error + exit code map (top failure modes).
- Safety rules:
--dry-run, confirmations,--force,--no-input. - Config/env rules + precedence (flags > env > project config > user config > system).
- Shell completion story (if relevant): install/discoverability; generation command or bundled scripts.
- 5–10 example invocations (common flows; include piped/stdin examples).
Default Conventions (unless user says otherwise)
-h/--helpalways shows help and ignores other args.--versionprints version to stdout.- Primary data to stdout; diagnostics/errors to stderr.
- Add
--jsonfor machine output; consider--plainfor stable line-based text. - Prompts only when stdin is a TTY;
--no-inputdisables prompts. - Destructive operations: interactive confirmation + non-interactive requires
--forceor explicit--confirm=.... - Respect
NO_COLOR,TERM=dumb; provide--no-color. - Handle Ctrl-C: exit fast; bounded cleanup; be crash-only when possible.
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.
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.
- 1mo ago First seen · 89 lines · 31 tokens per session scan A 68c7a64005d0
create-cli is a skill published in the GitHub repository jkomyno/.dotfiles (5 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 31 tokens to every session and 864 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 92% identical to create-cli, differing in 2 lines, and is treated as a copy.
