description: >-
  Hashnode publishes a first-party CLI, but it is not a client for the content API.
  `@hashnode/cli` targets Hashnode Docs (documentationProject): it verifies and
  previews a local docs project before publishing. There is no CLI surface for
  posts, drafts, publications, or the GraphQL API - the documented terminal path
  for those is raw curl, or the agent skill.

binary: hashnode
maturity: alpha
maintenance_note: >-
  The package README still says "currently under active development", but the last
  publish was 2024-11-20 - before Hashnode Pro, before the paid API gate, and
  before the gql-beta endpoint move. Treat it as unmaintained relative to the
  current API.
