  Dify ships one first-party command-line tool, named `dify`. It is a plugin-development CLI, not a
  client for the Service API — it scaffolds, develops, signs and packages Dify Marketplace plugins.
  There is no CLI that calls chat, workflow or knowledge endpoints.

    The published README describes the command surface as scaffolding, developing, signing and
    packaging plugins. The full command tree is not enumerated in a published reference page, so no
    command list is recorded here rather than inventing one — run `dify --help` against the binary
    to enumerate it.
  documented_capabilities:
    - scaffold a new plugin
    - develop and run a plugin locally
    - sign a plugin
    - package a plugin for the Marketplace
