Terminal conventions are hardwired into users' fingers - consistency enables intuitive use and efficiency. - -## Professional CLI Design Principles - -### Core Design Philosophy - -**1. Saying Just Enough** -- Balance information density carefully - too little leaves users confused, too much drowns important information -- Print something within 100ms to show responsiveness -- Show progress for long operations with estimated time remaining - -**2. Ease of Discovery** -- Comprehensive help texts with examples -- Suggest next commands and error corrections -- Make functionality discoverable without requiring memorization - -**3. Conversation as the Norm** -- Design for trial-and-error learning cycles -- Support multi-step workflows (setup → configuration → execution) -- Enable exploration patterns (dry-run before real execution) -- Suggest corrections for invalid input - -**4. Robustness (Objective and Subjective)** -- Handle unexpected input gracefully -- Feel immediate and responsive like "big mechanical machine" -- Keep users informed about what's happening -- Explain common errors in human terms - -**5. Empathy** -- Design with feeling that you're on the user's side -- Exceed expectations through careful attention to problems -- Make software enjoyable to use as creative toolkit - -## Machine-Readable Design Standards - -### Structured Output Requirements -- **JSON Output**: `--json` or `--output=json` for ALL commands -- **Exit Codes**: HTTP-style codes (0=success, 1=error, 2=warning, specific error codes for different failure modes) -- **Progress Indication**: Machine-readable progress for long operations -- **Error Structure**: Consistent error objects with codes, messages, and context - -### Agent Chaining Support -```json -{ - "success": true, - "exitCode": 0, - "data": {}, - "error": { - "code": "string", - "message": "string", - "details": {}, - "suggestions": ["array"] - }, - "metadata": { - "command": "string", - "timestamp": "string", - "duration": 0, - "nextSuggestedActions": ["array"], - "workflowContext": {} - } -} -``` - -### Output Design Standards - -**Human Output Detection**: Use TTY detection to determine if output is for humans or machines -```bash -# Detect output destination -isHuman = process.stdout.isTTY -outputFormat = flags.json ? 'json' : (isHuman ? 'human' : 'plain') -``` - -**Dual Output Support**: -- `--json`: Machine-readable JSON output -- `--plain`: Plain tabular text for grep/awk integration -- Default: Human-friendly with colors, formatting, progress bars -- `--no-color`: Disable colors (also check NO_COLOR env var) - -## The Essentials (Must Follow) - -### Basic Requirements -- **Argument Parsing**: Use robust CLI parsing library (Commander.js, yargs, clap, etc.) -- **Exit Codes**: Return 0 on success, non-zero on failure with meaningful error codes -- **Output Streams**: Send primary output to stdout, errors/messages to stderr -- **Help System**: Display help with `-h`, `--help`, and when run with invalid arguments - -### Help Text Standards -```bash -# Show concise help by default when arguments missing -$ myapp -myapp - description of what program does - -Usage: myapp [options] [args...] - -Examples: - myapp deploy --env=prod # Deploy to production - myapp status --json # Get status as JSON - -Use 'myapp --help' for detailed help. - -# Show comprehensive help with --help -$ myapp --help -# Full help with examples, all options, links to docs -``` - -### Argument and Flag Design -- **Prefer flags to arguments**: Makes intent clearer and easier to extend -- **Full-length versions**: Both `-h` and `--help` for all flags -- **Standard flag names**: Follow established conventions (-f/--force, -v/--verbose, -q/--quiet) -- **Order independence**: Flags should work before or after subcommands where possible - -### Standard Flag Conventions -- `-f, --force`: Force action, skip confirmations -- `-h, --help`: Help (reserved only for help) -- `-q, --quiet`: Less output (errors only) -- `-v, --verbose`: More detailed output -- `--version`: Show version information -- `--json`: JSON output for machine parsing -- `--no-color`: Disable colored output (respect NO_COLOR env var) -- `--dry-run`: Preview without execution -- `--config`: Specify configuration file - -## Advanced Design Patterns - -### Error Handling Excellence -- **Catch and Rewrite Errors**: Transform technical errors into human-friendly guidance -- **Signal-to-Noise**: Minimize irrelevant output, group similar errors -- **Recovery Suggestions**: Always suggest next steps or corrections -- **Debug Information**: Provide debug logs for unexpected errors, preferably to file - -```bash -# Good error message -$ myapp deploy -Error: Cannot write to config.json. -You might need to make it writable by running 'chmod +w config.json'. - -# Bad error message -$ myapp deploy -Error: EACCES: permission denied, open 'config.json' -``` - -### Interactivity Guidelines -- **TTY Detection**: Only prompt when stdin is interactive terminal -- **No-Input Override**: Always provide `--no-input` flag to disable prompts -- **Password Security**: Never echo passwords, use proper terminal controls -- **Escape Options**: Make Ctrl-C work, provide clear exit instructions - -### Confirmation Patterns -- **Mild Risk**: Simple confirmation or no confirmation for explicit actions -- **Moderate Risk**: Yes/no confirmation with dry-run option -- **Severe Risk**: Require typing resource name or `--confirm=name` flag - -### Progress and Responsiveness -- **100ms Rule**: Show something within 100ms -- **Progress Indicators**: Spinners, progress bars, estimated time -- **Parallel Operations**: Use libraries for multiple progress bars -- **Timeout Configuration**: Configurable network timeouts with reasonable defaults - -### Configuration Management -```bash -# Configuration precedence (highest to lowest): -1.
