make onboard              # interactive setup (rename, deps, env, hooks)
uv sync                   # install deps
uv run mycli --help       # see all commands
uv run mycli greet Alice  # run a command
uv run mycli init my_command  # scaffold a new command

Global flags go before the subcommand:

uv run mycli --format json config show     # JSON output
uv run mycli --dry-run greet Bob           # preview without executing
uv run mycli --verbose greet Alice         # detailed output

Drop a Python file in commands/ and it is auto-discovered.

Single command - export a main() function:

# commands/hello.py
from typing import Annotated
import typer

def main(name: Annotated[str, typer.Argument(help="Who to greet.")]) -> None:
    """Say hello."""
    typer.echo(f"Hello, {name}!")

uv run mycli hello World   # Hello, World!

Subcommand group - export app = typer.Typer():

# commands/db.py
import typer

app = typer.Typer()

@app.command()
def migrate() -> None:
    """Run migrations."""
    ...

uv run mycli db migrate

Or scaffold with: uv run mycli init my_command --desc "Does something".

from common import global_config

# Access config values from common/global_config.yaml
global_config.example_parent.example_child

# Access secrets from .env
global_config.OPENAI_API_KEY

CLI config inspection:

uv run mycli config show                           # full config
uv run mycli config get llm_config.cache_enabled   # single value
uv run mycli config set logging.verbose false      # write override
