# OpenCLI Usage Guide

> Make any website or Electron App your CLI. Reuse Chrome login, zero risk, AI-powered discovery.

## Install & Run

```bash
# npm global install (recommended)
npm install -g @jackwener/opencli
opencli <command>

# Or from source
cd ~/code/opencli && npm install
npx tsx src/main.ts <command>

# Update to latest
npm update -g @jackwener/opencli
```

## Prerequisites

Browser commands require:
1. Chrome browser running **(logged into target sites)**
2. **opencli Browser Bridge** Chrome extension installed (load `extension/` as unpacked in `chrome://extensions`)
3. No further setup needed — the daemon auto-starts on first browser command

> **Note**: You must be logged into the target website in Chrome before running commands. Tabs opened during command execution are auto-closed afterwards.

Public API commands (`hackernews`, `v2ex`) need no browser.

### External CLI (passthrough)

OpenCLI can discover, auto-install, and passthrough commands to external CLI tools. Use `opencli install <name>` to auto-install, or `opencli register <name>` to register a local CLI.

| CLI | Description | Commands |
|-----|-------------|----------|
| **gh** | GitHub CLI — repos, PRs, issues, releases | `repo` `pr` `issue` (all gh subcommands) |
| **obsidian** | Obsidian vault — notes, search, tags | All obsidian subcommands |
| **docker** | Docker CLI | All docker subcommands |
| **lark-cli** | Lark/Feishu — messages, docs, calendar, tasks (200+ commands) | All lark-cli subcommands |
| **dws** | DingTalk Workspace — messages, docs, calendar, contacts | All dws subcommands |
| **wecom-cli** | WeCom/企业微信 — contacts, todos, meetings, messages | All wecom-cli subcommands |
| **vercel** | Vercel — deploy, domains, env vars, logs | All vercel subcommands |

```bash
opencli install gh              # Auto-install gh CLI
opencli register my-tool        # Register a local custom CLI
opencli gh pr list --limit 5    # Passthrough to gh
opencli docker ps               # Passthrough to docker
opencli lark-cli msg send ...   # Passthrough to lark-cli
```

### Management

```bash
opencli list [-f json|yaml]     # List all commands
opencli validate [site]         # Validate adapter definitions
opencli doctor                  # Diagnose browser bridge
opencli explore <url>           # AI-powered API discovery
opencli record <url>            # Record API calls manually
```

All commands support: `--format` / `-f` with `table` `json` `yaml` `md` `csv`

## Self-Repair

If a command fails due to a site change (selector, API, or response schema), **automatically fix the adapter and retry** instead of reporting failure. Re-run the command with `OPENCLI_DIAGNOSTIC=1` to get structured diagnostic context, then fix the adapter file at `RepairContext.adapter.sourcePath` and retry. Max 3 repair rounds. See the `opencli-autofix` skill for the full workflow.
