compatibility	Requires the OpenCLI command `opencli`.

OpenCLI

OpenCLI makes websites available as CLI commands through adapters and browser bridge automation.

Prerequisites

1. opencli is available in the $PATH.

2. opencli doctor
   

   If opencli doctor reports missing daemon, missing extension, or failed connectivity, summarize the failing checks. First try again without the sandbox (for codex). If still failed, report back to the user

   You may inspect daemon state when useful:

   opencli daemon status
   

Command Discovery

Do not assume adapter names, command names, arguments, or flags. Discover the current CLI surface from help output:

opencli --help
opencli list -f yaml
opencli <site-or-adapter> --help -f yaml
opencli <site-or-adapter> <command> --help -f yaml
opencli browser --help

Prefer -f yaml or -f json when available so command arguments, options, access level, browser requirements, and output columns are structured.

Common Workflows

For site/app/external adapters:

1. Use opencli list -f yaml to find relevant adapters.
2. Inspect the adapter with opencli <adapter> --help -f yaml.
3. Inspect the exact command with opencli <adapter> <command> --help -f yaml.
4. Choose output format intentionally, usually -f yaml or -f json for downstream reasoning.

For direct browser control:

1. Make sure opencli doctor runs successfully once before proceeding.
2. Read opencli browser --help and the relevant subcommand help.
3. Pick a descriptive browser session name and reuse it across related calls.
4. Use opencli browser <session> state to inspect interactive element indices before clicking, typing, selecting, uploading, or dragging.

For adapter development or verification:

opencli validate <target>
opencli verify <target>
opencli convention-audit <target>

Inspect each command's help before passing flags.

Safety Rules

• Confirm with the user before commands that log in, post, send, purchase, subscribe, create, update, delete, upload, download private data, change profile/session defaults, install/uninstall plugins, or control daemon lifecycle.
• Do not print secrets, tokens, cookies, credentials, session exports, or private browser data. Summarize only what the task requires.
• If a command fails because OpenCLI's daemon, extension, profile, or browser session is not ready, report the specific failed check and the next user-visible setup step.
