  the package.json `bin` field
name: gigacatalyst
official: true
package: packages/gigacatalyst-packages.yml
version: 0.2.2
published: '2026-07-07'
note: >-
  A real first-party CLI, but a thin one - the published README documents a single command.
  It is a scaffolder, not an API client: it scans a Next.js project's app/api/ routes, writes
  a tools manifest into .gigacatalyst/, and wires up the chat handler and provider component.
  No further subcommands, flags, or configuration options are documented anywhere public.
install:
- method: npx
  command: npx gigacatalyst init
  note: the documented entry point - no global install step is published
- method: npm
  command: npm install gigacatalyst
  note: installs the SDK; the `gigacatalyst` binary comes with it (bin -> dist/cli.mjs)
commands:
- command: gigacatalyst init
  group: setup
  description: >-
    Scans the project's app/api/ routes, generates a tools manifest, and sets up the chat
    handler and the provider component.
  produces:
  - .gigacatalyst/ config directory
  - a chat handler route
  - a root provider component (documented in the README as ./giga-root)

  note: >-
    Routes the CLI scaffolds INTO THE CUSTOMER'S OWN APPLICATION. These are not Gigacatalyst
    hosts and are not callable against gigacatalyst.com - they are templated paths in the
    consuming Next.js app.
  paths:
  - /api/gigacatalyst/chat
  - /api/gigacatalyst/capabilities
gaps:
- No `--help` output, man page, or command reference is published.
- No documented subcommands beyond `init`.
- No CLI changelog or release notes.
