5	## Core Principles
6
7	### 1. Unix Philosophy
8
9	- Do one thing well - Single, focused purpose
10	- Composable - Work with pipes and redirects
11	- Text streams - stdin/stdout/stderr properly
12	- Exit codes - 0 success, non-zero failure
13
14	### 2. User Experience
15
16	- Helpful errors - Clear, actionable messages
17	- Progress feedback - Show what's happening
18	- Sensible defaults - Work without config
19	- Discoverability - --help explains everything
20
21	### 3. Robustness
22
23	- Graceful failures - Handle errors, don't crash
24	- Signal handling - Respond to SIGINT, SIGTERM
25	- Idempotent - Safe to run multiple times
26	- Atomic operations - Don't leave partial state
27
28	### 4. Performance
29
30	- Fast startup - Minimal initialization
31	- Streaming - Process large inputs efficiently
32	- Lazy loading - Only load what's needed
33	- Caching - Remember expensive operations
34
35	## Workflow
36
37	1. Define interface - Commands, flags, arguments
38	2. Implement core logic - Business functionality
39	3. Add I/O handling - stdin, files, output formatting
40	4. Error handling - Helpful messages, proper exit codes
41	5. Documentation - --help, man page, README
42	6. Test - Unit tests, integration tests, edge cases
43
44	## Common Tasks
45
46	### Argument Parsing
47
48	- Subcommands (git-style)
49	- Flags (--verbose, -v)
50	- Positional arguments
51	- Environment variable fallbacks
52
53	### Output Formatting
54
55	- TTY detection (color, width)
56	- JSON output mode
57	- Table formatting
58	- Progress indicators
59
60	### Configuration
61
62	- Config file loading
63	- Environment variables
64	- XDG base directories
65	- Sensible defaults
66
67	## CLI Patterns
68
69	### Command Structure
70
71	```
72	mycli <command> [options] [arguments]
73
74	Commands:
75	init Initialize new project
76	run Execute the task
77	config Manage configuration
78
79	Global Options:
80	-v, --verbose Increase output verbosity
81	-q, --quiet Suppress non-error output
82	--json Output as JSON
83	-h, --help Show help
84	--version Show version
85	```
86
87	### Exit Codes
88
89	```
90	0 Success
91	1 General error
92	2 Invalid usage/arguments
93	64 Usage error (EX_USAGE)
94	65 Data format error
95	66 Cannot open input
96	73 Cannot create output
97	```
98
99	### Output Conventions
100
101	```bash
102	# Regular output -> stdout
103	echo "Result: success"
104
105	# Errors -> stderr
106	echo "Error: file not found" >&2
107
108	# Progress -> stderr (so stdout stays clean)
109	echo "Processing..." >&2
110
111	# JSON mode -> stdout, machine-readable
112	echo '{"status": "success", "count": 42}'
113	```
114
115	## Anti-Patterns
116
117	- Hardcoded paths
118	- No --help option
119	- Ignoring exit codes
120	- Color without TTY check
121	- Blocking without progress
122	- Requiring interactive input in pipes
123	- Inconsistent flag naming
124
125	## Communication Patterns
126
127	Implementation status:
128
129	```
130	mcp__relaycast__message_dm_send(to: "Lead", text: "STATUS: CLI tool progress\n- Commands: init, run complete\n- Pending: config subcommand\n- Testing: 23 test cases passing\n- Docs: --help implemented")
131	```
132
133	Completion:
134
135	```
136	mcp__relaycast__message_dm_send(to: "Lead", text: "DONE: CLI tool complete\n- Commands: init, run, config\n- Tests: 31 passing, 0 failing\n- Docs: README, --help, man page\n- Package: npm/brew ready")
137	```
138
139	## Testing CLI Tools
140
141	```bash
142	# Unit tests for parsing
143	test_parse_args()
144
145	# Integration tests
146	./mycli init --name test \| grep "Created"
147	test $? -eq 0
148
149	# Error handling
150	./mycli invalid 2>&1 \| grep "Unknown command"
151	test $? -eq 2
152
153	# Pipe handling
154	echo "input" \| ./mycli process \| ./mycli format
155	```
156
157	## Documentation Template
158
159	```markdown
160	# mycli
161
162	Brief description of what the tool does.
163
164	## Installation
165
166	npm install -g mycli
167
168	## Usage
169
170	mycli <command> [options]
171
172	## Commands
173
174	### init
175
176	Initialize a new project.
177
178	### run
179
180	Execute the main task.
181
182	## Examples
183
184	# Basic usage
185
186	mycli run input.txt
187
188	# With options
189
190	mycli run --verbose --output result.json input.txt
191
192	# Piped input
193
194	cat data.txt \| mycli process
195	```
