CLI-Anything Generator (Cursor Plugin Skill)

This skill is packaged inside the Cursor plugin as a supporting entry point. The primary generator UX is the plugin slash commands.

Prefer Slash Commands

If the user speaks naturally ("build a CLI for ./gimp"), run the same workflow as the matching command.

Consumer Path (Separate)

This skill is not the Hub consumer. For finding/installing published CLIs:

npx skills add HKUDS/CLI-Anything --skill cli-hub-meta-skill -g -y

Per-app skills live under the repo skills/ tree and install via npx skills add.

PLUGIN_ROOT and Methodology

1. Resolve PLUGIN_ROOT via discovery pointer then stamp:

• ~/.cursor/cli-anything-generator.root / %USERPROFILE%\.cursor\cli-anything-generator.root
• {install}/PLUGIN_ROOT.txt
• default ~/.cursor/plugins/local/cli-anything if references/HARNESS.md exists there

1. Read {PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/HARNESS.md with an absolute path.
2. Read the matching file under {PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/commands/.
3. Use guides under {PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/guides/ on demand.
4. Helper scripts: {PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/repl_skin.py, preview_bundle.py,

skill_generator.py, templates/.

Phase Gates

For build/refine/test/validate, maintain {software-root}/agent-harness/.cli-anything-progress.json. Create agent-harness/ when tracking starts. Do not advance without completing the previous phase. Resume non-terminal runs.

Quality Bar

Match Claude Code plugin / Codex skill output: same harness layout, namespace packaging, --json, tests, and skill generation. Do not invent a different harness format.
