What it does
Build, refine, test, validate, or list CLI-Anything harnesses for GUI applications in Cursor. Prefer slash commands /cli-anything, /cli-anything-refine, /cli-anything-test, /cli-anything-validate, and /cli-anything-list when available. This skill supports natural-language discovery of the generator; it does not replace those commands. Discovering already-published CLIs from CLI-Hub is a separate consumer skill (cli-hub-meta-skill).
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
| Goal | Command |
|---|---|
| Full 7-phase build | /cli-anything <path-or-repo> |
| Expand coverage | /cli-anything-refine <path> [focus] |
| Run tests | /cli-anything-test <path> |
| Validate checklist | /cli-anything-validate <path> |
| List tools | /cli-anything-list |
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.
