We just dropped the CLI-Anything technical report
CLI-Hub hits a new milestone: ~100 CLIs · 35 categories · 200k+ agent-driven CLI calls — our agent-native CLI platform is growing fast.
CLI-Hub — http://clianything.cc is our central registry for agent-native CLIs. Since launch, it has grown to nearly 100 CLIs spanning creative, scientific, developer, and enterprise software across 35 categories — and agent-driven CLI calls have already crossed 200k+. When you give agents the right interface, they actually use it.
The core idea is simple: agents shouldn’t be forced to operate software the way humans do — through screenshots, pixels, and fragile clicks. They deserve native interfaces built for them.
CLI-Anything turns real applications into stateful, verifiable command-line harnesses — exposing structured commands, explicit state, JSON feedback, preview artifacts, and backend-grounded execution. Any software. Any codebase. Any Web API.
