OpenCLI.dev
The home of the specification, with guides and a live editor for authoring CLI documents. Its ocli tool validates documents and generates documentation and CLI code.
Try the live editor →Go code generation
OpenCLI’s ocli tool generates Go CLI scaffolding for Cobra and urfave/cli from an OpenCLI document. Define the interface in the spec, generate the framework code, then implement your command handlers.

clidoc brings existing yargs, Commander.js, and oclif commands into the ecosystem. Export an OpenCLI document, validate it, and publish documentation with Docusaurus, VitePress, or Markdown.
Publish your documentation →One specification, more possibilities
Whether you start with an OpenCLI document or extract one from an existing CLI, the specification gives tools a common way to describe commands, arguments, and flags.
OpenCLI is evolving. Check the specification version supported by each tool when sharing documents across the ecosystem.
