A CLI tool that turns **any website**, **Electron app**, or **local CLI tool** into a command-line interface — Bilibili, Zhihu, 小红书, Twitter/X, Reddit, YouTube, Antigravity, `gh`, `docker`, and [many more](#built-in-commands) — powered by browser session reuse and AI-native discovery.

**Built for AI Agents** — Load the [`opencli-operate` skill](./skills/opencli-operate/SKILL.md) to give any AI agent (Claude Code, Cursor) direct browser control. Operate any website, then crystallize those interactions into reusable CLI commands. Configure `opencli list` in your `AGENT.md` or `.cursorrules` so the AI auto-discovers all available tools.

**CLI Hub** — Register any local CLI (`opencli register mycli`) so AI agents can discover and call it alongside built-in commands. Auto-installs missing tools via your package manager (e.g. if `gh` isn't installed, `opencli gh ...` runs `brew install gh` first then re-executes seamlessly).

**CLI for Electron Apps** — Turn any Electron application into a CLI tool. Recombine, script, and extend apps like Antigravity Ultra from the terminal. AI agents can now control other AI apps natively.

---

## Highlights

- **CLI All Electron** — CLI-ify apps like Antigravity Ultra! Now AI can control itself natively.
- **Browser Automation** — `operate` gives AI agents direct browser control: click, type, extract, screenshot — any interaction, fully scriptable.
- **Website → CLI** — Turn any website into a deterministic CLI: 70+ pre-built adapters, or crystallize your own with `opencli record`.
- **Account-safe** — Reuses Chrome/Chromium logged-in state; your credentials never leave the browser.
- **Anti-detection built-in** — Patches `navigator.webdriver`, stubs `window.chrome`, fakes plugin lists, cleans ChromeDriver/Playwright globals, and strips CDP frames from Error stack traces. Extensive anti-fingerprinting and risk-control evasion measures baked in at every layer.
- **AI Agent ready** — `explore` discovers APIs, `synthesize` generates adapters, `cascade` finds auth strategies, `operate` controls the browser directly.
- **External CLI Hub** — Discover, auto-install, and passthrough commands to any external CLI (gh, obsidian, docker, etc). Zero setup.
- **Self-healing setup** — `opencli doctor` diagnoses and auto-starts the daemon, extension, and live browser connectivity.
- **Dynamic Loader** — Simply drop `.ts` or `.yaml` adapters into the `clis/` folder for auto-registration.
- **Zero LLM cost** — No tokens consumed at runtime. Run 10,000 times and pay nothing.
- **Deterministic** — Same command, same output schema, every time. Pipeable, scriptable, CI-friendly.
- **Broad coverage** — 79+ sites across global and Chinese platforms (Bilibili, Zhihu, Xiaohongshu, Reddit, HackerNews, and more), plus desktop Electron apps via CDP.

## Quick Start

### 1. Install Browser Bridge Extension

> OpenCLI connects to your browser through a lightweight **Browser Bridge** Chrome/Chromium extension + micro-daemon (zero config, auto-start).

1. Go to the GitHub [Releases page](https://github.com/jackwener/opencli/releases) and download the latest `opencli-extension.zip`.
2. Unzip the file and open `chrome://extensions`, enable **Developer mode** (top-right toggle).
3. Click **Load unpacked** and select the unzipped folder.

### 2. Install OpenCLI

**Install via npm (recommended)**

```bash
npm install -g @jackwener/opencli

# Install AI skills for Claude Code / Cursor
npx skills add jackwener/opencli
```

### 3. Verify & Try

```bash
opencli doctor          # Check extension + daemon connectivity
opencli daemon status   # Check daemon state (PID, uptime, memory)
```

**Try it out:**

```bash
opencli list                           # See all commands
opencli hackernews top --limit 5       # Public API, no browser needed
opencli bilibili hot --limit 5         # Browser command (requires Extension)
```

### 4. Browser Automation — Make Websites Accessible for AI Agents

Point your AI agent (Claude Code, Cursor) to [`skills/opencli-operate/SKILL.md`](./skills/opencli-operate/SKILL.md). It has everything needed — full command reference, examples, and workflow.

Available commands: `open`, `state`, `click`, `type`, `select`, `keys`, `wait`, `get`, `screenshot`, `scroll`, `back`, `eval`, `network`, `init`, `verify`, `close`.

### Update

```bash
npm install -g @jackwener/opencli@latest
```

### Install AI Skills

OpenCLI provides [skills](./skills/) for AI agents (Claude Code, etc.):

```bash
# Install all OpenCLI skills
npx skills add jackwener/opencli

# Or install specific skills
npx skills add jackwener/opencli --skill opencli-usage      # Command reference
npx skills add jackwener/opencli --skill opencli-operate     # Browser automation for AI agents
npx skills add jackwener/opencli --skill opencli-explorer    # Adapter development guide
npx skills add jackwener/opencli --skill opencli-oneshot     # Quick command reference
```

79+ adapters in total — **[→ see all supported sites & commands](./docs/adapters/index.md)**

## CLI Hub

OpenCLI acts as a universal hub for your existing command-line tools — unified discovery, pure passthrough execution, and auto-install (if a tool isn't installed, OpenCLI runs `brew install <tool>` automatically before re-running the command).

| External CLI | Description | Example |
|--------------|-------------|---------|
| **gh** | GitHub CLI | `opencli gh pr list --limit 5` |
| **obsidian** | Obsidian vault management | `opencli obsidian search query="AI"` |
| **docker** | Docker | `opencli docker ps` |
| **lark-cli** | Lark/Feishu — messages, docs, calendar, tasks, 200+ commands | `opencli lark-cli calendar +agenda` |
| **dingtalk** | DingTalk — cross-platform CLI for DingTalk's full suite, designed for humans and AI agents | `opencli dingtalk msg send --to user "hello"` |
| **wecom** | WeCom/企业微信 — CLI for WeCom open platform, for humans and AI agents | `opencli wecom msg send --to user "hello"` |
| **vercel** | Vercel — deploy projects, manage domains, env vars, logs | `opencli vercel deploy --prod` |

**Register your own** — add any local CLI so AI agents can discover it via `opencli list`:

```bash
opencli register mycli
```

opencli bilibili hot -v         # Verbose: show pipeline debug steps
```

## Exit Codes

opencli follows Unix `sysexits.h` conventions so it integrates naturally with shell pipelines and CI scripts:

| Code | Meaning | When |
|------|---------|------|
| `0` | Success | Command completed normally |
| `1` | Generic error | Unexpected / unclassified failure |
| `2` | Usage error | Bad arguments or unknown command |
| `66` | Empty result | No data returned (`EX_NOINPUT`) |
| `69` | Service unavailable | Browser Bridge not connected (`EX_UNAVAILABLE`) |
| `75` | Temporary failure | Command timed out — retry (`EX_TEMPFAIL`) |
| `77` | Auth required | Not logged in to target site (`EX_NOPERM`) |
| `78` | Config error | Missing credentials or bad config (`EX_CONFIG`) |
| `130` | Interrupted | Ctrl-C / SIGINT |

```bash
opencli spotify status || echo "exit $?"   # 69 if browser not running
opencli github issues 2>/dev/null
[ $? -eq 77 ] && opencli github auth       # auto-auth if not logged in
```

## For AI Agents (Developer Guide)

> **Quick mode**: To generate a single command for a specific page URL, see [opencli-oneshot skill](./skills/opencli-oneshot/SKILL.md) — just a URL + one-line goal, 4 steps done.

> **Full mode**: Before writing any adapter code, read [opencli-explorer skill](./skills/opencli-explorer/SKILL.md). It contains the complete browser exploration workflow, the 5-tier authentication strategy decision tree, and debugging guide.

```bash
opencli explore https://example.com --site mysite   # Discover APIs + capabilities
opencli synthesize mysite                            # Generate YAML adapters
opencli generate https://example.com --goal "hot"   # One-shot: explore → synthesize → register
opencli cascade https://api.example.com/data         # Auto-probe: PUBLIC → COOKIE → HEADER
```

## Testing

See **[TESTING.md](./TESTING.md)** for how to run and write tests.

## Troubleshooting

- **"Extension not connected"** — Ensure the Browser Bridge extension is installed and **enabled** in `chrome://extensions` in Chrome or Chromium.
- **"attach failed: Cannot access a chrome-extension:// URL"** — Another extension may be interfering. Try disabling other extensions temporarily.
- **Empty data or 'Unauthorized' error** — Your Chrome/Chromium login session may have expired. Navigate to the target site and log in again.
- **Node API errors** — Ensure Node.js >= 20. Some dependencies require modern Node APIs.
- **Daemon issues** — Check status: `curl localhost:19825/status` · View logs: `curl localhost:19825/logs`
