name: ZET — Zoho Extension Toolkit
scope: extensions-and-widgets
scope_note: >-
  ZET is a first-party CLI, but it is a WIDGET/EXTENSION build tool, not a REST API
  client. It scaffolds, serves and packages the client-side widgets that run inside
  Zoho CRM; it does not wrap the Zoho CRM REST API the way a `stripe`-style CLI does.
  Zoho publishes no general-purpose Zoho CRM API CLI — there is no `zoho crm get
  records` equivalent. Recorded honestly as the CLI Zoho actually ships.
